Spirit of Spring: Bloom
A five elements yoga retreat,
close to home and a world away.
Don’t miss this!
May 6-8, 2026
Bowen Island, British Columbia
w/ Liza Higbee-Robinson & Liesl Schwerin
Breathe, Move, Renew
As May unfolds in the Pacific Northwest, nature buzzes and hums. Soft rains give way to blooming wildflowers. Birdsong and frog chorus fill the atmosphere. The days lighten, warm, and stretch out. Hope, renewal, and possibility dance and swirl. The season is an ideal time to turn inward, attune to your heart’s song, and re-emerge.
This retreat is an invitation to step away from the demands of your daily living and into a space of deeper awareness and presence. You’ll have the opportunity to listen to your body, soften your mind, and align with the rhythm of the season. Whether you're here to deepen your practice, restore your nervous system, or simply rest, this time is yours.
Held in the nourishing stillness of Bowen Island, surrounded by forest trails, ocean views, and the grounding embrace of nature, this retreat offers more than rest — it offers return. Return to yourself. Return to earth. Return to the present moment where your life is happening.
Join me on this unique retreat, close to home and a world away!
