Please join us for the first-ever 'Solstice 5 Senses Retreat', a collaboration between longtime friends, and born from a perceived need for us all to unplug from our thinking minds, if only for a day, and tune in more deeply to our senses. Hosted by Juliana Machado, one of the best yoga teachers in the region and owner of Ascension Yoga in Kingston, and Aviva Tilson, the founder/farmer/formulator at Apis Apotheca, a local herbal skincare company at Gatherwild ranch in Germantown NY (where the original Apis garden first grew many years ago). This retreat will include a long, luxurious yoga class lead by Juliana, a slumber party-style DIY facial with Apis products lead by Aviva, A medicinal plant walk, and a healing sound bath by local creative arts therapist Katie Down. We will also serve a farm to table gluten free, vegetarian lunch catered by Lauren Mary Fan from fat apple farm. We hope this retreat helps you ground and center as the sun reaches its solstice zenith, and we can all celebrate this beautiful time of year together by reconnecting with our senses.
For those of you who would like to stay the night, you also have the option of booking a glamp-site on Gatherwild Ranch's website, use code RETREAT for 15% off.
