Urban Retreat

Shambhala Yoga & Dance Center

Need a moment of connection in the city?
Does your heart ache for healing?

Join Heather Sanderson for our 1-day urban retreat focusing on the heart – with lots of experiential meditations, journeys and hands-on herbal medicine making to support your heart.

When we learn to be in connection with the heart, stay with the sensory experience, and allow the heart to show us ways of connecting – with ourselves, our true spirit, and others – the power of the heart can become limitless, accepting, and open.

In this one-day retreat we will:

  • discuss a foundational overview of the heart from a physical, energetic and psychological perspective
  • learn about how Hawthorn and Violet can help your heart
  • make (and enjoy) an herbal infusion and tincture that you take home with you
  • shamanic drum journey to meet a plant ally just for your heart
  • experience movement and meditation to help balance the heart center
  • enjoy a yummy vegan lunch
Your investment:
$225
Early-bird: $195 (before September 10th)
