Why?

Because every day is better with a little sprinkle of yoga.

Yoga. Galiano. Retreat.

There's really nothing like walking through a forest on a sunny winter day, surrounded by quiet beauty and the happy chatter of new friends.
Or gathering in a circle warmed by a fire place to share a little bit of what we'd like more of — or less of — in our lives.

Or doing five inspiring yoga together classes in three days.

Because yoga retreats offer up a special experience, each happy moment building up to the next — and this weekend's New Year, New You Retreat to Galiano at Bodega Ridge was especially good.

We ate well, nourished by Jesse's hospitality and a smiling cook who created healthy and delicious meals; our accommodation was comfortable and clean; and most of all, we just laughed a lot.

And made some great friends.

Here's some pics. Stay tuned for our Shanti Yoga Harvest Retreat details coming soon.

Every meal was an event.

Savasana was better thanks to our Half Moon
eye pillows, part of the goodie bags from Half Moon and
Tsawwassen's Natural Comfort Wellness.

Radiant yoginis. (Happy after yoga, and ready for brunch!)

A beautiful, foggy early morning walk.


Teachers Wesley Salter (above) and Chantal O'Sullivan
led five classes in three days, from flow to kundalini-power to yin.

We had time to explore Galiano on Sunday afternoon. So fun.

We challenged ourselves. We felt empowered.
