About the event
All Aboard! This Easter, bring the whole family for a long weekend of mindfulness and movement. Set at The Farm, near Northland’s beautiful Whangaruru Harbour, this is a retreat designed with parents in mind. Parents deserve meditation as well, yet it’s so hard to find that time and space when you’re managing a busy family. So while you dive into meditation, yoga and Dharma talks, experienced babysitters will be on hand to look after the little ones - we want to give you the freedom to really settle into the retreat program. Pair this with activities designed to help introduce children and developing adults to the internal environment, as well as connect with nature, and we have ourselves a retreat for the whole family.
This retreat will be the perfect balance of stillness and adventure. From meditation and yoga to exploring the 1,000 hectares of rolling farmland, native bush and nearby beaches, to bike trails, horse riding, surfing, relaxing in the sauna and even to fishing spots for dad (bring the boat if you want, why not!?), there are options to keep everyone happy.
Whether you’re new to meditation or an old hand, and whether you bring your family or not, this four-night retreat is a chance to reconnect with yourself and your practice.
Options for accommodation include private cabins, dorms or camping and the retreat is fully catered.
What to Expect:
A full program of meditation and yoga for adults, as well as sessions for kids, including bedtime meditation.
Child minding and baby sitting during session times as required.
