About

Ojas is a sanskrit word that means vigor or vitality and refers to the inner fire we need to fulfill our purpose. It is my intention to offer this space as a place for restoration, connection, vitality and healing. All are welcome.

I have been leading retreats for over nine years now all over the world. I created this retreat for women to come together, share, unlearn what we've been conditioned to know as ours, peel back the layers and nourish our selves. Not just our bodies through asana but through breath, through awareness practices, through contemplation, through healthy meals and sisterhood. The new year can be hard so this is certainly not a “New year, new you” retreat. You already ARE amazing and don’t need to change but you certainly do deserve to feel grounded and taken care of.

The retreat center is just 1.5 hours south of Los Angeles, immersed in an ecological reserve. Amenities include hot tub, pool, indoor & outdoor dining spaces, spacious terraces, expansive views of mountains, natural bath products stocked in each bathroom, & cozy beds. You will love the mountain and plateau views from our expansive deck featuring an eight person hot tub, outdoor dining, a quaint courtyard with a pond, and a lounge area with a fire pit.  Or you enjoy your time at our peaceful outdoor pool and patio.  
You'll be so relaxed it may be difficult to find the motivation to go for a hike! Neighboring to us is the Santa Rosa Plateau and Ecological Reserve, a unique protection area for many ecosystems, which contains approximately 40 miles of hiking and biking trails. Access to the trails is via a path just outside of our driveway.

OUR PRACTICE..

The Pavilion is accessed through the zen courtyard. It is a large stunning space with high vaulted ceilings, opening glass doors on 2 ½ sides, an outdoor deck, and a view of the trees. Yoga mats, blocks, bolsters, straps, blankets, and meditation cushions are all provided for your use.  Other amenities in the pavilion include: a large sink, small refrigerator, hot water kettle, microwave, and bamboo hot/cold cups for beverages.  The pavilion conveniently has direct access to a bathroom from inside the space.

Okay, this is sounding lovely, what else can I expect?
