Radical Silence is a guided self-reflection retreat practiced in silence.

🧹 We’ll use yoga, breathwork, healthy food, and meditation to open up and sweep out the junk.

🧚🏻‍♀️ You’ll learn a new moon wishing practice to help you focus your manifesting magic.

🧘‍♀️ We’ll finish with an easy yoga class to rehydrate the tissues and open up your shoulders & hips.

🤫 Your instructors will speak to guide each session but otherwise everyone will refrain from speaking or making meaningful eye contact. 

Please contact me to register.

Why Radical Silence?

We include people excluded from other meditation traditions: especially queer, trans, BIPOC, medical cannabis patients, and sex workers. 

No Screens

You’ll be asked to turn off all your devices after you arrive. You will be given an emergency contact number in case you need to be reachable.

No Dogma & No Gurus

We welcome people of all beliefs and non-believers too. There is no dogma taught and no gurus to follow here. 

Transformation with a Trans Woman

This retreat centers the Feminine and is taught by Queer Women. Humans of all genders and sexualities are welcome to attend. 

Cannabis is Cool

We choose to make this retreat cannabis friendly because we are medical cannabis patients. You are welcome to consume cannabis in any format or stay sober. Taking an edible before Yin Yoga is a popular option. Staying completely sober is also popular.

Accessibility

You must be able to walk up one flight of stairs to attend. This retreat is designed to accommodate neuro-diverse brains, all medications, highly sensitive people, and empaths. You may bring an interpreter or attendent human at no charge. No animals please. Please contact me for accessibility needs or questions.
