Heart Alchemy – A Yin & Pins Summer Retreat
Calm the mind, open the heart, and awaken your inner light.
As we move into the vibrant energy of summer and the element of fire, we gather to nurture balance, joy, and connection.
The fire element governs the heart — the seat of love, compassion, and inner peace. When in harmony, it radiates warmth and light; when overactive, it can bring restlessness or emotional exhaustion.
This 4-hour retreat is an invitation to slow down, open your heart, and restore your inner flame with gentle practices that balance body, mind, and spirit.
Your experience includes:
- Heart-Opening Yin Yoga – guided by Rose, targeting the heart and small intestine meridians to calm the nervous system and release emotional tension.
- Partner Yoga Connection – playful, heart-expanding postures that cultivate trust, support, and shared joy.
- Pratipaksha Bhavana Reflection Practice – a mindful journaling and partner-sharing ritual to transform limiting thoughts into life-affirming perspectives.
- Acupuncture Integration (Pins) – with Dr. Nathan Chin, harmonizing the heart meridian and calming the mind for deep relaxation and energetic alignment.
- Sound Healing & Guided Rest – gentle crystal bowl vibrations to anchor peace and serenity.
- Closing Tea & Treats – herbal tea and nourishing bites shared in community as you integrate your experience.
