CALIFORNIA DREAMING
 
WOMEN'S YOGA & WELLNESS RETREAT 

JUNE 18—22, 2024  &  JULY 23—27, 2024    

ALAMEDA , CALIFORNIA

If we relate to the natural world as alive, full of spirits and elemental beings, the natural world speaks to us."

—Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, Healing With Form, Energy, and Light: The 5 Elements in Tibetan Shamanism, Tantra, & Dzogchen

 

Join us for this small group experience for self-care, community, joy, and greater depth on your life journey. During our 5 day women's retreat, we will dive deeply into body intelligence; engage with the universal elements; and connect to a higher frequency. This will facilitate natural healing, develop your intuition, and expand your consciousness. Our setting will be Alameda, California— a unique island nestled between San Francisco and Oakland. This nook of northern California is blessed with abundant sunshine, outdoor adventures, and incredible food. Alameda is known as one of Bay Area's best kept secrets! Enjoy the peacefulness of a small town, yet the diversity, conveniences, and delights of a city.

"Tammy was an excellent yoga teacher and host! Her attention to detail and warm, welcoming attitude made participants of all levels feel comfortable and at ease. If you're looking for a relaxed atmosphere to deepen your practice, I highly recommend Tammy. This was the 2nd time I've participated in one of Tammy's retreats. She exceeded all of my expectations, per usual!
