Love This Life Yoga Retreat

It is impossible to truly describe the magic of a retreat as each one is unique from the next. The dynamic of the group combined with the opportunity to have time alone, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, is quite a rejuvenating experience. We journal, meditate, practice yoga, enjoy delicious food, nap (!!!), read, explore, hike, spa…truly, the time is yours to do what you please. I find that when I attend retreats as a student I fill up in ways that feel so elusive when I am on my home turf. I come home refreshed and cleansed from the inside out, and spiritually fueled to be my best to the people who count on me.

The retreat will begin with a late afternoon practice on December 1st with dinner right after practice. We will close with a morning practice on December 6th, eat a wonderful breakfast, and then depart. Our very tentative schedule will be two yoga classes per day with daily meditation and journaling included in the classes. Each class is about two hours long, and you can expect a fiery morning practice and a restorative evening practice. Those of you have attended my retreats in the past know that every single body can do this. There is truly something for everyone in every class. Other activities will be planned and available through the retreat. The retreat is almost sold out. If you are considering, please register soon. I’d love to have you.

Lauren Wessinger
Lauren Wessinger is a mama, student of yoga, teacher of yoga, mala maker and occasional writer in Fort Worth, Texas.

Someone said to me once, “yoga is not about seeking and searching, but about awakening and coming home to that which we already are.” I took this in like a breath of fresh air. The process and practice of getting to know myself as I enter my third decade as a yoga practitioner has been one of befriending the shadow side of myself, celebrating the light side, and knowing the beauty of life lives in the simple everyday moments in between. It allows me to show up and serve in ways I never imagined I could. It allows me to be as present and clear as possible with my family, and totally transparent and honest when I am not. It allows me to see all challenges in relations and interactions as a mirror.

My classes provide a good well-rounded mix of styles from over half a lifetime in the seat of the student, and going on eight years in the seat of the teacher. Students can expect a robust, yet even-paced, flow class with meticulous attention to alignment and functional strength. Every class brings plenty of connection to spirit and heart. As always, we end in a restorative pose combined with an exquisite savasana to ensure students leave with a quiet and calm nervous system. My training in yoga for people with injuries, and also my offering of prenatal yoga, truly makes my classes available to all levels and needs of practitioner.

My current teacher is Elena Brower, and my past teachers who still influence me today are Judith Lasater, Ana Forrest, Jason Crandell, and Kimberly Hardick. I keep my studies close and always have several yoga books on rotation, get easily inspired by anatomy blogs on better, safer ways to teach asana, and am always looking for and planning the next training to attend. My spirited children, my entire family, my teachers, my business SoulSpace Yoga Community, and the people of the world challenge me to be my best. I feel my sweet Mom by my side always, her gentle guiding hand in all I do.
