Precious Knowing: A Meditation and Yoga Retreat for Women
Katharine Kaufman
February 1–5, 2023
Our bodies hold emotions, images, patterns, and stories. When we learn to fully inhabit our bodies through mindfulness practices, we can know ourselves as complete and wakeful beings. During this retreat, we will practice sitting meditation, flowing and restorative yoga, playful improvisational movement, and a little writing. We will deepen our practice and insight through periods of silence, and our community will develop understanding and trust through discussion and dialogue.
Trans women, genderqueer women, and female-identified non-binary people are welcome.
Previous yoga or meditation experience is recommended but not required.

Wisdom of the Body: Yoga and Meditation Retreat
Katharine Kaufman
April 20–23, 2023
You’ve experienced joy and health, pain and loss. You’ve tested your physical limits, and have recovered from surgeries. You’ve traveled, shared insights, and cared for others. Now it’s time to attend to your body as it is today.
In this retreat, you’re invited to practice with a fresh perspective that acknowledges your mind and body’s wisdom. Starting from the ground and building to heart centering postures, we will learn various ways of attending to your body. Through a variety of sequences — both restorative and flowing — you’ll support sitting, walking, standing, and lying meditation postures. You’ll gain strength and coax flexibility.
Emerge from the weekend with a new lens on your unique experiences, and rich understanding of how to practice Yoga and Meditation safely and wisely whether practicing alone or in a group.
Please review and understand Drala Mountain’s current COVID-19 policy before visiting.
