Description
Because queer joy is resistance!
Dear Queer Spiritual Seeker...
You are invited to this transformational Yoga retreat, which is a safe space provided by and for queer and trans folx. This retreat will be held on a 17-acre property with a dome-shaped home in Madison, Ohio, surrounded by those gorgeous Midwestern fall colors! October is the best month for nature in Ohio!
We will come together to share a daily Yoga + meditation practice, self-reflection and community-building exercises, and time connecting with nature. Connect deeply with your intuition, with the healing power of community, and with the ancient teachings of Yoga...
If you have ever struggled to find belonging, then this retreat is a safe place for you to explore.
Queerness and diverse gender expressions enrich the human experience. But cultural stigmas and social conditioning disconnect us all from our inner truth, and cause us to rely on external authority for guidance and acceptance. This LGBTQ-affirming yoga retreat is a safe space for people like us to seek spiritual guidance from within ourselves, cultivate deep self-acceptance, and ultimately reclaim our power!
This transformational LGBT Yoga Retreat is one of a kind in Northeast Ohio. Now more than ever, dedicated safe spaces for queer folx are so important! I have found that many queer community spaces are centered around alcohol or sensory experiences that are not comfortable for neurodivergent people. Our organization is filling the gap by offering safe LGBTQ+ spaces that are centered around health and wellness, and are sensory-friendly! We also offer partial tuition scholarships and work trade opportunities, apply below.
Your investment includes:
-
Detailed instruction in all-levels Yoga practices, guided meditation, breath work, workshops, self-development exercises, and facilitated discussion circles
-
Freshly made delicious vegetarian meals, snacks, and tea
-
Lodging on a secluded, spacious property in beautiful Northeast Ohio
-
Opportunities to connect with like-minded people
-
Precious time and space for self-care!
