Back To The Roots Retreat 12-15 Aug

This 4-day Back to the Roots, yoga, permaculture &  sacred sound retreat has lots of treasures for you while contributing to Mother Earth. This retreat promises the opportunity to destress, recharge your nervous system, reconnect with nature (and your true self), find your tribe, enjoy the community, and find an inner empowering balance through various practices. 

We encourage ourselves to focus on the essentials for living a pleasant and regenerative life: experiencing the simplicity and wild beauty of the diverse natural world while practicing ancestral pearls of wisdom for clearing out blockages and regaining clarity and power. We appreciate the abundance and opportunities that are available to us through nature within & around us and re-align ourselves back in deep gratitude; which is the secret to attracting abundance in our lives.

Nature is giving us the opportunity to feel inwards, breathe, and nourish ourselves with earth & ancestral food, practices, and sacred medicines. In this retreat, we acknowledge the patterns in our nature and learn from each lesson that unfolds. We work on replenishing our energy levels through yoga, meditation, soul food &  sacred sound.  We came on this planet to be joyous, free, abundant, natural and connected and during this retreat, we are highlighting this essence and bringing it back to life.

Join us for this four-day retreat where we share practices that gear you into these states while also learning about permaculture as an incredible toolkit to design a regenerative lifestyle wherever you are.  At Zee Barn, we design programs that are beautifully charged with lots of love and dedication. This dedication will also be shared through organic and authentic homegrown foods that will also be prepared in primarily macrobiotic vegetarian and vegan meals. You get to experience off-grid living on our permaculture farm while also breathing in the beautiful surroundings and forest gardens.  This regenerative retreat is carefully curated to give you top tips and practical knowledge that you can take back to your home and practice. We know you will come away from the day feeling motivated and inspired.  Come and experience a return to a deep connection to nature and yourself while you feel cared for and embraced by Zee’s vibrant environment. Morning breathwork invigorates your nervous system followed by intentional meditation sessions for your life’s success. The authentic communication workshop will help you release any blockages that are hindering your self-expression and will help you boost your creativity.

 Afternoon yoga sessions will raise your body awareness as you feel freshly aligned and invigorated, while our sound journey and drumming will make sure you move every part of your body and release what does not serve you anymore. There is so much beauty and so much depth and richness if only we drop our 'garbage' of unneeded worry and stress. If we could connect back with our true selves and manage to stay present and grounded, we would be able to experience great shifts in ourselves.  

This retreat is potentially the experience you have been yearning for to give you the strength and inspiration to go forward with your dreams and aspirations while experiencing living examples of manifested labor of love at Zee Barn. Here, you will get the chance to meet like-minded other beings from different backgrounds yet with a common goal: to better yourself and live your best version & enjoy life.

Take this opportunity to destress, detoxify your body & mind, regain mental clarity with proven techniques, and move in ways that will help you evolve into the person you deserve to be.
