These practices help us open to our true nature as we more fully accept\, integrate and embrace our unfolding experiences. \nFacilitating international yoga retreats for over 12 years\, Carly\, Krassi and Jackie weave the well-researched and evidenced-based practice of mindfulness into each yoga class\, helping students to cultivate present-moment\, non-judgmental awareness. Mindfulness practices help us develop compassion\, as we shed habitual patterns of striving. \nCarly believes that retreating form our own busy lives is a deeply supportive act of remembering: remembering ourselves\, our deepest longing and heartfelt intentions to live a meaningful life. It helps us to stretch time and access liminal space. It helps us see\, hear and feel life differently. Drawing inspiration and wisdom from the natural world\, Carly offer Yin yoga\, mindfulness and psycho-spiritual inquiry as a way to assist you in attuning to your external environment and your inner landscapes. Carly will help us explore the themes of surrender and expansion\, yin and yang\, descent and ascent and how to hold the paradox of being human with grace and courage. Coupled with writing\, self-inquiry work\, and luminous poetry\, Carly will help awaken your senses and encourage you to connect with a rhythm that is naturally yours. Her evening yin yoga classes will help you drift off into a deep\, restful sleep\, and will empower you with mindfulness tools that you can carry with you for your entire life. You can read more about Carly on her website: www.carlyforest.com/about \nKrassi’s invigorating vinyasa classes challenge the body while inviting a gentleness of mind and openness of heart. Her teachings encourage self-discovery\, growth and expansion. She offers accessible modifications for students of all levels. Krassi is a certified yoga instructor\, a Thai massage therapist\, a certified doula\, a Hakomi counselor (mindfulness-based somatic counseling)\, and facilitator of Mindful Moms groups through Mind Body Moms. She is also the author of Morning\, Zora\, a lovely children’s book\, as well as Yoga Cards for Children. \nJaclyn’s mindfulness meditation classes will help you become more aware of what is. With an invitation to practice non-judgmental awareness\, she will help you establish a more kind and caring relationship with yourself\, your inner landscape\, and with all that unfolds within you and around you.  Jaclyn will teach you mindfulness tools that you can take home with you and practice daily\, weaving these practices into your everyday life. Jaclyn is a Marriage & Family Therapist\, a certified yoga teacher\, a mindfulness teacher\, and Founder & Director of Mind Body Moms. \n \nFEEDBACK FROM OUR PREVIOUS YOGA\, MINDFULNESS & SURFING RETREAT  \nNosara\, Costa Rica ~ March 2017 \n“This was a totally AWESOME experience!

You can find out more about Jaclyn here: http://jaclynlong.com/about/ \nLeah Weiss\, co-facilitator and mindfulness expert\, speaks on the powerful impact of mindfulness and compassion on business and leadership: \nDo you suffer from any of the following? \n\n\nFeel stressed or overwhelmed at work\, but wish to feel centered and capable?\n\n\nWish to move up in your career\, but are feeling blocked? \n\n\nYearn to take a leap of faith\, but feel waves of fear as you consider the risks?\n\n\nFeel a lack of purpose or a slump in motivation in your work and life? \n\n\nWant tools to boost focus\, productivity and creativity in your work? \n\n\n\nThen you’ve come to the right place!\nJoin Leah Weiss\, Phd\, MSW and Jaclyn Long\, MFT\, RYT for a week-long professional development retreat for female leaders focused on cultivating mindfulness and compassion in the workplace.\nMindfulness and compassion are powerful tools for enhancing your work and life.  \nYou will gain powerful and simple mindfulness tools to:  \n\nManage stress \nRegulate emotions\nBoost focus\, productivity and efficiency\nIgnite your passion and purpose in your work and life \nCreate a healthier work/life balance \nImprove communication and interpersonal relationships \nImprove decision making skills \n\nLeah will empower you with compassionate leadership skills to fuel your career\, based on her years of experience as a lecturer at Stanford University Graduate School of Business where she teaches the chronically waitlisted course “Leading with Mindfulness and Compassion.” Through interactive exercises and discussions\, you will learn how to bring mindfulness practices and the proven benefits into your work and life. \nSpecifically\, Leah will guide you to explore the role of mindfulness\, self-compassion and compassion in the workplace\, and the contribution of these qualities to leadership. \nTopics will include: \n\nHow can mindfulness enhance clarity in purpose and productivity?\nWhat is the connection between mindfulness and compassion?\nAre compassion and profit motives fundamentally incompatible\, or can they support each other?\nWhat does compassionate leadership look like?\nCan mindfulness and compassion be trained at the individual level\, and built into company policy?\nHow does self-compassion support effective leadership and recovery from setbacks?\n\nYou will have the chance to engage with exercises from evidence-based programs targeting the development of mindfulness and the practical application of the skills of self-awareness\, self-compassion\, and perspective taking in the context of work and relationship. \n\n“Stress and overwhelm is majorly preventing women from doing what they want to do\, and being who they want to be in the world\,” says Lindsay Gordon\, Mind Body Public Health Specialist \n\nJaclyn will offer key tools to help manage stress\, cultivate self compassion\, and regulate emotions\, so you can show up as your most productive and effective self as you work. Learn to navigate challenges with increasing grace and ease. Take advantage of Jaclyn’s mindfulness and yoga exercises to calm your nervous system and clear your mind\, so you can clarify your purpose and motivations in work and life. Refuel your energy reserves and return home feeling recharged and ready to work towards creating the life you deeply desire. \nMajor companies such as Uber\, Accenture\, JP Morgan\, Google\, and Aetna are investing in mindfulness programs to help employees reduce stress\, maintain focus in their work\, and boost productivity. And it’s working. Researchers have found that daily mindfulness activities such as meditation can increase productivity by 47 to 62 minutes per week.  \nWhat’s more\, mindfulness for employees is proving to be a smart investment\, saving companies thousands of dollars each year. After introducing a mindfulness program\, Aetna estimates the productivity gains alone amounted to $3\,000 per employee\, an 11-to-one return on its investment. According to David Gelles\, author of Mindful Work\, “Stress exerts a tax on an organization  – in terms of both productivity and health care costs. Reducing stress\, therefore\, is going to help the bottom line.” \n\n“People who are valued\, create value\,” says mindfulness expert and retreat co-facilitator Leah Weiss\, who has supported major corporations in integrating mindfulness programs into daily work life and witnessed the benefits first hand. \n\nCultivating mindfulness skills is an essential investment in your career and work life. Empower yourself with the mindful leadership skills you need to facilitate peak performance\, fuel your career goals\, and recharge for the exciting journey ahead.  \nIn addition\, spend the week building strong connections among powerful and purpose-driven women. Nothing can replace the power of being supported by other like-minded women in achieving your career and life goals.  \nGive yourself the critical time and space you need to uplevel your career now. \n\n“You can’t afford not to do this work!” – Leah Weiss\, co-facilitator and mindfulness expert \n\nIn addition to cultivating mindful leadership skills\, you will have plenty of time to rejuvenate your body with healthy foods\, daily mindfulness-based yoga practices\, optional excursions such as surfing lessons\, horseback riding\, SUP or ziplining\, and opportunities to find inspiration in nature.  \nIf you have any questions or would like more details\, please don’t hesitate to contact Jaclyn at  Jaclyn@mindbodymoms.com. \nWe would love to support you in taking the right steps to boost your career and personal development. \nDo you have friends\, co-workers\, or a team you feel could also benefit from this retreat? \nReceive a deep discount for bringing them too!

These practices help us open to our true nature as we more fully accept\, integrate and embrace our unfolding experiences. \nFacilitating international yoga retreats for over 12 years\, Carly\, Krassi and Jackie weave the well-researched and evidenced-based practice of mindfulness into each yoga class\, helping students to cultivate present-moment\, non-judgmental awareness. Mindfulness practices help us develop compassion\, as we shed habitual patterns of striving. \nKrassi’s invigorating vinyasa classes challenge the body while inviting a gentleness of mind and openness of heart. Her teachings encourage self-discovery\, growth and expansion. She offers accessible modifications for students of all levels. Krassi is a certified yoga instructor\, a Thai massage therapist\, a certified doula\, a Hakomi counselor (mindfulness-based somatic counseling)\, and facilitator of Mindful Moms groups through Mind Body Moms. She is also the author of Morning\, Zora\, a lovely children’s book\, as well as Yoga Cards for Children. \nCarly believes that retreating form our own busy lives is a deeply supportive act of remembering: remembering ourselves\, our deepest longing and heartfelt intentions to live a meaningful life. It helps us to stretch time and access liminal space. It helps us see\, hear and feel life differently. Drawing inspiration and wisdom from the natural world\, Carly offers Yin yoga\, mindfulness and psycho-spiritual inquiry as a way to assist you in attuning to your external environment and your inner landscapes. Carly will help us explore the themes of surrender and expansion\, yin and yang\, descent and ascent and how to hold the paradox of being human with grace and courage. Coupled with writing\, self-inquiry work\, and luminous poetry\, Carly will help awaken your senses and encourage you to connect with a rhythm that is naturally yours. Her evening yin yoga classes will help you drift off into a deep\, restful sleep\, and will empower you with mindfulness tools that you can carry with you for your entire life. You can read more about Carly on her website: www.carlyforest.com/about \nINFO FOR PARTICIPANTSREGISTER NOWJaclyn’s mindfulness meditation classes will help you establish a more compassionate relationship with what is. With an invitation to practice non-judgmental awareness\, she will help you cultivate a more kind and caring relationship with yourself\, with all that unfolds within you and with all that unfolds around you. Jaclyn will teach you mindfulness tools that you can carry around with you wherever you go\, weaving these practices into your everyday life. Jaclyn is a Marriage & Family Therapist\, a certified yoga teacher\, a mindfulness teacher\, and Founder & Director of Mind Body Moms.
