Alongside shared meals and time on the mountain, a guided mandala workshop and a creative yoga practice invite you to slow down, find inspiration, and enjoy the company of others.\nArrive at 10:00 a.m. for brunch, followed by a guided campus tour to Sunset Ridge. In the afternoon, explore color, pattern, and design as you create a personal mandala (a geometric representation of creation and the sacred path to peace) with local artist Renana. Then join Pushpa Danielle Barr for Creative Flow: An Exploration in Yoga, bringing curiosity and inner listening into movement, breath, and meditation. Complete your day with dinner and evening arati (ritual of light).\nA GUIDED CAMPUS TOUR TO SUNSET RIDGE\nStep away from the pace of daily life and walk the land with us. This guided tour winds through the campus and out to Sunset Ridge, where the views open across the Monterey Bay. Move slowly, breathe deeply, and get to know the 380 acres that hold this community.\nSACRED GEOMETRY: A MANDALA WORKSHOP\nExplore the art of mandala creation with local artist Renana in this two-hour workshop, open to anyone interested in creating — no previous experience required. Guided step by step, you will be invited to use acrylic pens to design and paint a personal mandala while experimenting with color, shapes, and creative expression.\nThe workshop offers a calm and inspiring atmosphere that encourages relaxation, focus, and mindfulness through art. At the end of the session, you will leave with a completed mandala artwork to bring home and display.\nCREATIVE FLOW: AN EXPLORATION IN YOGA\nJoin Pushpa Danielle Barr for a yoga practice of movement, breath, curiosity, listening, and allowing ourselves to be surprised by what emerges. Rather than approaching creativity as something we need to produce, we will explore what can emerge when we become quiet enough to listen, curious enough to move beyond our habitual patterns, and spacious enough to allow something new to arise.\nThe class will begin with a centering meditation and pranayama, inviting students into presence and receptivity. From there, we will move into a playful, creative yoga flow that combines familiar postures in less familiar pathways, exploring circular movement, transitions, choice, and moments of intuitive movement within the structure of the practice. We will then gradually soften toward grounding postures, savasana (corpse pose), and a closing meditation invoking creativity and inner listening.\nAdditional offerings on the mountain include:\n\nPersonal time to relax in community spaces, including Anjaneya’s World Cafe and Oceanview Books & Gifts, and explore the 380 acres of hiking trails, walking paths, and indoor amenities\nOption to visit the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple\nOption to book a wellness treatment at Kaya Kalpa Wellness Center (additional fees apply, advance reservations recommended)\n\nTo participate in these special offerings, please register for a Mountain Experience day visit or join us overnight for a full Weekend in Community ( https://mountmadonna.org/calendar/a-weekend-in-community-fall-2026/ ), Friday, November 20 through Sunday, November 22.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”flip-in” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” delay=”500″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\nSchedule for Weekend in Community\n[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html css=”.vc_custom_1790197760314{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}” el_class=”doubleLinedTb”]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]\n
