Calistoga, California Dear Friends,
This is an invitation to join me for my summer immersion retreat
this July 24~27, 2014. The focus will be revitalizing and
harmonizing the health of our body, nervous system, and spirit.
The center is quiet, beautiful, and surrounded by nature. The
events will consist of lectures, writing, and full practices of breath
initiated movement, yoga practice, and meditation. I hope that you
can join me.
With affection and solidarity ~ Max Strom
The Retreat
WHERE WILL IT BE?
Set in Northern California on a hilltop ridgeline above the
town of Calistoga, surrounded by spectacular 360-degree
views, rests Mayacamas Ranch. The Ranch is conveniently
located about 75 miles from the Bay Area and Sacramento.
With its secluded and expansive grounds, comfortable
guestrooms, distinctive cuisine and multiple meeting spaces,
Mayacamas is a stunning hideaway that inspires both quiet
contemplation and inspiration. The serene mountains offer
hiking trails and any number of beautiful spots for
meditation or journaling.
ACCOMMODATIONS AND MEALS
Mayacamas Ranch has guest units and cottages situated in
various buildings on the property. All beds are 100% organic
and feature organic sheets. Each unit has its own
temperature control system for your comfort. Both attached
bath and unattached bath are offered. There is a lovely
outdoor swimming pool in a gorgeous setting.
The Mayacamas chef will prepare us delicious vegetarian
meals, with mostly locally grown produce.
TRANSPORTATION
Mayacamas is about an 80-minute drive from downtown San
Francisco and Sacramento. It is approximately a 30-minute
drive from the Santa Rosa airport, and a 2-hour drive from
the San Francisco International Airport, Oakland
International Airport, and Sacramento International Airport.
