Start the New Year with wellness, community, and CELEBRATION of The Retreat’s 2nd Birthday!
It’s TIME for our annual New Year’s Day 108 Sun Salutations practice, followed by a community potluck brunch - a tradition in our community since 2016! We’ll also be joining with Flora to celebrate our 2 year anniversary at The Retreat!
You may be asking WHY in the world we wanna do 108 Sun Salutations?? The auspicious number 108 is considered sacred in yoga and in many cultures. It represents wholeness; and when we join together in a 108 Sun Salutation practice, we’re reminded that we are all ONE - moving together with breath and meditation as we start the New Year with intention and good health! 108 tends to show up in many places if you pay attention: for example, there are 108 beads on a meditation mala, 108 beads on a rosary, 108 stitches on a baseball, 108 cards in an UNO deck..to name a few!
Practicing 108 Sun Salutations in a row is no joke. Therefore, our practice at The Retreat is a come-and-go situation! It’ll start at 10am and last a couple hours…. so you can show up at any time and do as many as you’d like. You can also step out for a coffee or matcha from @brewflora in our Lobby Lounge and hop right back in! The salutations will be team taught by Retreat Teachers and Community Members in a tag-team format. It’s so much fun and ALL ARE WELCOME to join us for FREE!
Our Community Potluck Brunch will be happening throughout the morning, so please bring a “brunchy” item (prepared in your kitchen or picked up from HEB or wherever!) to contribute to the snacky buffet! This will be a very laid back event of practicing, snacking, socializing, and CELEBRATING the New Year and our TWO YEARS of existence! ALL ARE WELCOME!
