New Year's Spiritual Renewal Retreat

Spiritual Nourishment for the New Year

End the old year and enter the new with reflection and spiritual nourishment.

Join Shivananda Thomas Amelio, founding member of Kripalu, as he guides you in deepening your spiritual practice through meditation, breathwork, mantra, and self-inquiry.

Through this immersive experience, you will:

Sink deeply into your heart’s knowing.
Reconnect with your ever-present source of divinity.
Learn to apply ancient yogic principles in your daily life.
Clarify and fine-tune your life’s purpose.

More than a retreat, this is an in-depth opportunity to establish a living spiritual practice rooted in the classical eightfold path of yoga—a foundation you can carry into every aspect of your life.

NOTE: Please bring a journal, any inspirational writing, and a symbolic object representing what you wish to release, what you are ready to step into, and what embodies divinity for you.
