Join us to experience rejuvenation and renewal! You need and deserve this.  So many of us are overtaxed by constant demands, burdens, and worries, especially those of us providing extra support for others through caregiving or healthcare and other service-oriented jobs.

We bring you expertise in the science, art, and practice of rejuvenation from stress.

  • Learn and practice the practical and cutting-edge science of stress resilience.
  • We will guide you into a state of deep rest through meditation, yoga Nidra, and restorative yoga.
  • You will learn skills to use all of your senses to reconnect with your body and increase aliveness and vitality.

Immersed in the beauty of nature at Esalen, our work will be well supported. We will learn and practice new ways to restore ourselves, and develop our own toolbox of short daily practices that support us in daily recovery and renewal.
