Winter Within
A Nature & Yin Yoga Retreat

An intimate yoga retreat for your mind, body & spirit in the heart of the white mountains.
Come as you are, leave feeling renewed.

Join Candy Jackson & Sarah Lane for this intimate yoga retreat where the season invites you to balance deep rest and the gradual transition toward movement. Through the mindful and meditative practice of Yin Yoga, an optional Reflexology session, time in the great outdoors, homecooked nourshing food and more, allow old energy to be swept away, opening space for creativity, harmony and enthusiasm. Come as you are, leave feeling renewed.

Reflexology & Yin Yoga — A Beautiful Pairing

Reflexology is a deeply relaxing practice that uses gentle, intentional pressure on specific reflex points of the feet. Much like Yin Yoga, it invites the body to slow down, soften, and settle into stillness. After a Yin practice, when the body and mind are already in a quieter state, Reflexology can be a beautiful continuation of that experience—offering time to simply receive rather than do. Together, these practices create a nurturing space for deep relaxation, grounding, body awareness, and an overall sense of balance and well-being. It’s the perfect complement to Winter Within—an invitation to turn inward and embrace the quiet wisdom of the winter season. 

Throughout the weekend you’ll experience:

• Yin yoga to deepen your sense of harmony in mind and body.

• Optional hands on Reiki during Yin yoga sessions to nourish and relax you.

• Gently guided breathwork and mindful meditation prompts to enhance your experience of connection to self and the world around you.

• Sound healing to deepen your intentions of kindness, compassion and good fortune.

• Time outdoors to move your body, with the options of X-C Skiing or Snowshoeing.

• A private Reflexology session to enhance your sense of peace and harmony.

The Beautiful Setting

Our home for the weekend is The Bartlett Village House, circa 1890, in the quaint village of Bartlett, NH. A warm and welcoming retreat space, this home has three stories of living space, a private backyard and plenty of room to both spread out and gather together. With 7 bedrooms and 3.5-bathrooms, you can quickly settle in to ease and comfort. Situated within walking distance to the Saco River and nearby hiking trails, nature is just steps away.

An Overview of the Experience

• Begin your weekend Friday evening, arriving anytime after 4 pm. Settle into your room and meet your fellow retreaters before coming together for a nourishing, home cooked dinner followed by our Welcome Circle. Your first night concludes with a deeply restorative Yin Yoga class.

• Wake up Saturday to the gentle morning sun with coffee and tea. Leisurely make your way to the yoga room for Yin yoga, long held passive poses to nourish and realign your vital energy while calming and balancing your mind and body. This class is accompanied by guided breathing, meditation prompts and optional hands on Reiki.

• Gather in our beautiful dining space for a relaxed, home cooked breakfast, followed by some free time. Next, we’ll pack a lunch and make our way outdoors for a couple hours of XC skiing or snowshoeing. If you prefer, take a short walk to the river or stay back and enjoy the coziness and quiet with a book or a nap.

• After another delicious home cooked dinner we’ll make our way to Nestlenook Farm where we’ll enjoy a horse drawn sleigh ride under the sparkling stars. Upon returning to the house enjoy some time to spend as you’d like before making your way to bed.

• Sunday morning begins with coffee and tea followed by Yin yoga. This Yin yoga class is accompanied by the soothing sound of crystal singing bowls and other instruments. Join your fellow retreaters for another leisurely meal together, taking your time to savor each moment. We will meet in the yoga room one final time for our Closing Meditation and Integration Circle.
  Take your time to pack up, departing midday, until we meet again.
