The chakras are more than energy centers — they are portals of
perception, a map of consciousness that mirrors how we experience
ourselves and the world around us. In this workshop, we journey
through the seven primary chakras as gateways to deeper
self-awareness.
Each chakra reflects not only an area of the physical body, but
also a way of perceiving reality — from our sense of safety and
belonging, to love, truth, vision, and connection to the divine. By
exploring these centers through movement, breath, and reflection,
we begin to see how our inner energy patterns shape our outer
experiences.
This practice invites you to come home to your body as a temple of
consciousness, to discover where your energy flows freely and where
it seeks understanding. Whether you are new to the chakra system or
deepening your study, this immersive experience will help you align
body, mind, and spirit — and awaken a more integrated sense of
self.
Welcome to Forrest Yoga - a deticated practice that emphasizes breath, awareness, and unique posturing to invigorate your body and create ease for your mind!
Immerse yourself in the etheral sounds of the hand pan in this unique sound journey experience. The hand pan, a melodic percussion instrument, creates resonant tones that invite deep relaxation and introspection. During this workshop, you'll be guided through a series of meditative soundscapes. The session will begin with gentle breathwork exercises to center your mind and body. As the hand pan's captivating melodies fill the space, you'll be encourages to release tension and explore your inner landscape.
The
Experience
A soul-stirring retreat in the wild, whispering quiet of Big Bend
National Park.
April 10–13, 2026 | Terlingua, Texas
Imagine mornings that begin under vast desert skies, where your body gently wakes through grounding yoga, your breath syncs with the rhythms of the land, and your heart opens to silence — true, sacred silence.
This 4-day Yoga + Hike Retreat invites you into the awe-inspiring landscape of Big Bend, where canyons echo, hot springs soothe, and stars stretch endlessly above.
We’ll hike iconic trails like Santa Elena Canyon, soak in the Hot Springs, and gather for intentional movement practices rooted in nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and inner spaciousness.
You’ll stay at the contemporary Stardust A-Frames, next to the historic Terlingua ghost town, with nourishing meals from our private chef, time to connect in community, and space to simply be.
This is for you if:
- You crave both stillness and movement, solitude and
connection
- You want to reconnect with your body and nature in equal
measure
- You’re ready to pause the noise and tune in to something
deeper
- You value high quality nourishment for your body
Come walk the land. Breathe the air.
Sleep beneath the stars. Answer to the whispers.
Big Bend is calling.
The Food
Our retreat experience is deeply nourished—literally—by a private
chef who brings a raw, holistic, and intentional approach to every
meal. Each dish is designed to ground, energize, and elevate your
experience in the desert. This isn’t just meal prep—it’s a full
culinary journey rooted in authenticity, seasonal ingredients, and
a deep respect for nourishment as ritual. Crafting a top-tier food
experience in the remote Big Bend region is no small feat. With
limited access to groceries and specialty items, it requires
serious intention, planning, and investment—and we’ve chosen to go
all in. Because we believe food is medicine. Food is soul care.
Food is a form of love. You’ll dine under desert skies with meals
that are both grounding and elevated, each plate thoughtfully
aligned with your body’s rhythms and the energy of the land.

Camp Ember is not your average yoga retreat.
It’s summer camp for your soul.
This is firelight and wide-open skies.
Upscale cabins with mountain views.
Wild creativity, deep stillness, and rivers that carry you
home.
Held on 300 acres of untouched land in Paradise Valley, Montana — borders Yellowstone National Park — Camp Ember invites you to step off the map and into something sacred: the season between seasons, where the glow of summer lingers and the spirit begins to rise again.
From the moment we first laid eyes on this land — the rolling green fields, the surrounding Rockies, the golden light pouring across the valley — we knew. It wasn’t a maybe. It was a must. The kind of calling you answer with your whole being.
Each day at Camp Ember is designed to reconnect you — with your body, your creativity, your inner quiet, and your next becoming.
Daily
yoga and somatic practice beneath Montana’s expansive skies
A playful, soul-led art experience, Wild Canvas, where canvases
will line the field and you’re invited to paint with total freedom
— splash, smear, create what’s felt, not what’s “right”
A Mellow Yellow float down the Yellowstone River, guided and
serene
A visit to local mineral-rich hot springs, deeply
restorative
An intuitive equine therapy session to open the heart
through connection with horses
And yes — swimming in the nearby crystal-clear creek, because
sometimes joy is simple
Each experience is included. Nothing extra to book, nothing to upgrade. Just you, fully held in the golden quiet of this ember season.
This is not about performance. It’s not about doing
more.
It’s about remembering what matters — and letting that rise to the
surface.
Let this be your invitation to soften, stretch, laugh, breathe, move, express, float, rest, and return.
Come rewild. Reconnect.
And remember who you are — beyond the noise, beyond the burn,
beneath the stars of Yellowstone’s golden season.
