Winter Yoga Retreat with Prem Yoga and Wellbeing

Julie Sayasane is back with Chef Joel Tisato to bring you another mini day retreat this winter. Julie has worked in hospitality over the last 14 years and has been a yoga instructor for the past 5 years, which has led to mental and physical health being an important focus for her. For the Winter mini-retreat, Julie and Joel are offering up Yoga Kriya, deep relaxation, and meditation followed by a delicious gourmet vegetarian/vegan lunch prepared by Joel. It will be a beautiful day to nourish the soul inside and out. Release every day stress, relax, and most of all – treat yourself. Diet is a vital part of mental and physical health; and Julie and Joel believe in conscious eating, which is believing you inherit the energy, health, and vitality of the food that you ingest, as well as the energy and love of the person preparing your meal. They welcome you to join them through this process and on this journey.
