Joy of Yoga Retreat in New Harmony
Nourish the heart and feed the soul, come home to self. Join Joy of Yoga for 2 nights & 3 days in New Harmony, Indiana- just a little over a 2 hour drive from STL. We will enjoy yoga, meditation, pranayama, self-exploration, nature and gourmet food.
New Harmony is a 200-year old community located on the banks of the Wabash River. It began as a spiritual sanctuary and evolved into a haven for international educators, scholars, and scientists who sought equality in communal living. This serene environment is a true treasure not to be missed. The trip is perfect for those who want to connect & replenish in community amongst the healing beauty of nature.
