Joy & Rebellion
Invoking the Maiden & Magician
Surrender and flow in this beachy retreat full of intention and heart.
If we are going to make an impact in the lives of others, we need to ensure that our own cups are full. Maiden energy in full force is both joyful and rebellious in nature. The maiden is what brings forth change and action in the world. Sowing seeds of revolution, reorganization and regeneration.
Without the maiden we stick to the status quo and call it safety.
The maiden is the feminine energy that is within all of us, regardless of gender expression or identity. We have her masculine counterpart within us as well. The maiden’s consort is the magician.
In a culture entrenched in masculine dominance, we don’t often struggle to invoke the magician. He is present in all of us as the one thirsty for knowledge, exploration and diving into the mysteries of life. His presence is inherent and he will surely be alive on this retreat.
PAUSE for a moment right now and think of all the ways you show up for others. Now, imagine that some of that outward energy was able to come back to you and help to restore you for the work you do in the world.
Allow us to hold space for you.
Allow sunlight, the ocean, sacred sites, and the breeze to cleanse and clear your energy.
Allow yourself to be nourished and to receive.
Can you remember your vibrancy?? The way that you were curious and open? The ways that you fearlessly embarked upon making your dreams come true? If you can remember that side of you - LET’S GO RETRIEVE THAT VERSION of YOU!! If you cannot connect with those memories, let's call it all in for you!
Together, we will practice, cultivate joy, share our fears and victories, connect deeply, and return to our work and families refreshed.
Join us in a restorative communal and trauma-informed healing experience. All levels are welcome. No yoga experience is necessary.

Student Reviews
The Yoga Farm retreat I went on was a life changing experience. I felt loved, accepted, cared for, and inspired the entire time. For me, it was the culmination of years of practice in self-healing, awareness and growth. It was a time and place which gave me the space to explore that growth in a loving, supportive, safe and BEAUTIFUL environment. It cultivated and inspired the motivation I needed in order to make significant life changes. The lessons I learned there helped to guide me on my path towards chasing my joy and trusting my deepest intuitions. Yoga Farm is a family and community unlike any other. I cannot wait for the next retreat!
Heather G
On my retreat with YFI, everything that I needed to support my journey of healing and growth was available: delicious, nourishing meals, wise and generous teachers and compassionate community. I gained clarity of purpose and am now able to embrace ALL of who I am and the incredible opportunities that await.

What I learned on retreat with Yoga Farm
Chanting is now an act of time travel.
A space I re-enter any time I'm in need.
Where I feel each of you in my bones, in my cells, in my soul.
You inspire laughter and tears and remind me of the full spectrum of this existence.
And I remember all the pieces that make me whole.
The pieces that were reflected back to me, gifted to me.
And I return home.
