Nourish Retreat
NOURISH RETREAT
You’re Invited to the Nourish Retreat
June 4-6, 2027
It is here – the next big retreat for Holy Yoga Shenandoah Valley…
Open to one and all – beginner, experienced, young, old – we will have a schedule where everyone has something to partake in and enjoy!
Matthew 6:25-26 – The Message
“If you decide for God, living a life of God-worship, it follows that you don’t fuss about what’s on the table at mealtimes or whether the clothes in your closet are in fashion. There is far more to your life than the food you put in your stomach, more to your outer appearance than the clothes you hang on your body. Look at the birds, free and unfettered, not tied down to a job description, careless in the care of God. And you count far more to him than birds.
Over the course of the weekend, you’ll enjoy:
Delicious, nourishing meals
Labyrinth walking for reflection and clarity
Free time to rest, read, or wander
Heartfelt fellowship and meaningful conversations
Opportunities for spiritual renewal and creative expression
Whether you come seeking quiet, connection, or simply a change of pace, the Flourish Retreat is here to welcome you—just as you are.
Spaces are limited, so we encourage you to reserve your spot early.
We can’t wait to welcome you.
Registration Deadline: May 15, 2027
One Day Pass: $250
Full Weekend Cost: $600
