Come away to the sea.
Join us for a nourishing weekend retreat on the Oregon Coast — a gathering of women devotees of Yogananda, coming together to breathe, create, move, and simply be in one another’s company.
The ocean has always been a place of return. Let its rhythms carry you back to yourself.
ABOUT THE RETREAT
This retreat is an invitation to slow down and go inward — supported by the prana of the Pacific, the warmth of Sangha sisterhood, and a spacious weekend away from the demands of daily life.
Together we’ll explore:
Meditation — Daily group meditation to deepen your practice and reconnect with Master’s teachings in a space held by fellow devotees.
Yoga — Daily Ananda yoga sessions to open the body, quiet the mind, and move prana with intention.
Art — Creative expression as spiritual practice. No experience needed — only a willingness to play, discover, and let something new come through.
Community — Meals cooked and shared, stories exchanged, laughter, silence, and the particular joy of being truly known by women who walk the same path.
