Thank you for your continued interest in Body Harmony Yoga and it’s inspirational offerings. If you have been quiet for awhile, I understand how it can feel safe and comforting to hibernate (for the winter, or longer)! I really do. Thus, I welcome you to be in touch and let me know how I can better serve you in the future. Also, if you feel so inclined, it would be appreciated if you could share these offerings with others, to help expand this community. We have nourishing online classes, yoga therapy and retreats.
Wishing you peace and Body Harmony,
Namaste 🙏🏼

I humbly acknowledge that I live, learn, work and play on the unceded and traditional territory of the Coast Salish peoples.
“Nurture in Nature Yoga Retreat”
Apr. 22-24/24 at Bowen Island, BC
Our individual and unique nature is intertwined with everything living, however so many things we do shift us out of balance. When we are mindful in nature, it naturally restores the harmony and rhythm within ourselves, nurturing a more joyful experience of life. For our special time together, we will let our true nature find its flow through meditation, movement and breathing yoga practices in the nurturing serenity of our surroundings. On Bowen Island, settled in the heart of the 20 acres of forested property that is Nectar Yoga, we will gather in community to rebalance our material bodies while honoring our hearts, minds and spirits. It is our hope this retreat will encourage the creation of new rituals and healthy habits to help keep you in balance, so you may live life to the fullest.
