Whether you are honoring a mother, a mentor, a friend, or your own journey of nurturing, this weekend is an opportunity to slow down, gather in community, and honor the care you give and receive.\nYou may choose to arrive on Friday afternoon for some personal time on the mountain before dinner with the Mount Madonna community, evening arati (ritual of light), followed by a nurturing sound healing journey. On Saturday, enjoy Classical Ashtanga Yoga (eight-limbed path), a guided walk, a special afternoon yoga class, two meals, and morning and evening arati. All Kaya Kalpa Wellness Center treatments are 20% off throughout the weekend, with 30-minute Express Massage appointments available Saturday afternoon. On Sunday, stay to participate in morning arati, an all-levels yoga class, breakfast, lunch, and time to explore the mountain at your own pace.\nEvening Sound Healing Journey\nYou are invited for a deeply nurturing sound healing journey, held in the gentle and powerful presence of the Divine Mother — the universal energy of unconditional love, compassion, and restoration. Through the resonance of crystal singing bowls, chimes, and subtle vibrational layers, this experience is designed to soften the nervous system, open the heart, and create a space where healing can arise naturally. Facilitated by Christina Sommers, this experience welcomes all genders into a space of deep remembrance that you are worthy of care, of softness, and of being held in love. Come as you are. Rest, receive, and return to yourself.\nA Guided Walk on the Mountain\nStep away from the pace of daily life and into the quiet of the mountain. This guided walk invites you to move slowly, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the land. There is something inherently nurturing about time spent among coastal redwoods and open sky; consider it a reminder that care flows in every direction, from the earth to the beyond.\nKaya Kalpa Wellness Center Specials\nReceive a special gift bag & 20% discount on all services May 8 – 10.\nTreat yourself or someone you love to a nourishing wellness treatment and receive a special gift bag. ALL services at Kaya Kalpa Wellness Center are 20% off Friday through Sunday, May 8 – 10. Treatments are booked and paid separately; advance reservations are recommended. Reserve your appointment ( https://mmi.as.me/schedule/167e5456 ) now and use the code NURTURE20 at checkout.\nInterested in trying Reiki, the gentle yet profound practice from Japan that supports the body’s natural energy centers? Take advantage of the special discount on this unique 45-minute healing therapy with our Reiki specialist, who will be on-site all weekend.\nOn Saturday between 12:30 and 3:15 p.m., 30-minute Express Massage appointments are available at a discounted price of $76. In just 30 minutes, our therapists will target key tension areas and leave you feeling refreshed and recharged.

Flow through standing and seated poses that encourage effort and ease, stamina and release. Finish with a guided reflection on finding strength in softening.\nAll-Levels Yoga | Sunday, May 10, 7:00 – 8:30 a.m.\nJoin Emily Crotty, yoga teacher of 10 years and Ayurvedic Practitioner, for a moderately paced, all-levels yoga class that combines breath, meditation, and poses to balance the physical and subtle body. Expect a short seated portion of class with guided breath and meditation, and a yummy asana sequence that balances flow and holds, challenge and restoration.\nArrive as you are, and stay for the unfolding.\nYou are welcome to come for a one-night, two-night (or more) Personal Retreat; or simply join us for a Mountain Experience day visit on Saturday, and fully immerse yourself in community, practice, and nature.\nTo Participate:\n\nFULLY BOOKED — Book a Personal Retreat for Friday, May 8 through Sunday, May 10, with the option to come for part of the weekend or extend your stay.
