AUTUMN MINI-RETREAT
Let go and receive.

October 15, 2023

The Nest
Underhill, Vermont
10:00 - 4:00

with Sienna DeVoe-Talluto and
Kristin DeVoe-Talluto

Step into a space of sanctuary and nurture your spirit with a day of movement, reflective writing, deep connections, time outdoors, and an optional sauna experience.

Autumn invites us to reflect on all that is unfolding and changing. It’s a time to gather goodness, celebrate beauty, and honor the spaces in our lives where we can let go. Inspired by sweeping mountain views and nurtured by the joy of being together, we’ll spend the day nourishing our bodies, hearts, and spirits with kindness and deep care.

In this retreat, yoga, community connection, creative expression, and shared laughter all become ways to remember the gift of who we are. Drawing on the energies of fall, we’ll create a sacred, cozy space where we can turn inward, let go, and receive.

Cost of the gathering:

$125 — includes all activities, access to the sauna and the grounds, lunch, snacks and tea.

There is space for 10 participants.

Retreat highlights:

  • Nourishing activities to help you connect to your body’s wisdom, unearth your creative joy, and discover what’s ready to be set free. 

  • Yoga, reflective writing, and guided meditations to remind you of your wholeness

  • Time outside to listen for the beauty, mystery and brilliance of the season

  • A sauna session to inspire relaxation and integration

  • Connection, laughter and conversation among kind-hearted souls

  • A delicious, seasonal lunch and a lovingly crafted schedule so that you can experience a rhythm of rest and renewal

  • Prompts to help you keep tending to what wants to be revealed after the retreat

Location

The Nest in Underhill offers a cozy practice studio, a welcoming upstairs gathering space, captivating views, a pond, a sauna, walking paths, and abundant land for resting, exploring, and celebrating. Nestled in the foothills of Mount Mansfield, this five acre property and lovingly restored 1850s barn will support us as we awaken the spirit of discovery and gently invite the question: What can I let go of, and how might I nourish myself?
