The Art of Connection
A Full Day of Massage With Erin Sweeney and Meghan Hallowell
This Valentines Day learn how to earnestly offer the most divine head and neck massage...and learn how to openly receive the most decadent foot and leg massage. Share a shoulder and back massage with your Best Friend, Mum, Life Partner or Favorite Person and discover how giving and receiving massage can be easy on your own body and therapeutic for another. Gently guided by Erin Sweeney and Meghan Hallowell, two of the most compassionate and experienced massage therapists TYS has encountered, The Art of Connection will teach us how to exchange therapeutic massage in a way that feels relaxing and comfortable for both the giver and the recipient.
The Art of Connection is a day for deep relaxation, connection and fun; family members, intimate partners or friends are most welcome to attend. In addition to blissful massage all day long, this full-day retreat will include: Healing Golden Tea, Nourishing Smoothie and Snacks, the TYS Organic Farm-to-Table Lunch, and a peaceful hike on our snowy farm.

The Art of Release
Restorative Yoga and Meditation With Caro
In this Winter Retreat we will explore meditation within the deeply nurturing and supportive practice of Restorative Yoga. In its essential form, Restorative Yoga offers a mind-body toolbox to focus the meditative practice on bringing balance to challenging cycles of anxiety, depression, fatigue and chronic pain that emerge from imbalance and dis-ease. As we hold postures with bolsters, blankets and therapeutic weighted yoga bags, each pose invites the mind-body network to experience the deepest form of grounding and opening; that which evolves from feeling complete CNS support. You will experience a full Restorative Yoga Practice, combined with individualised Yoga Therapy Pranayama and on-the-mat adjustments to find that 'perfect CNS relaxation point'.
This day also includes our TYS Signature Golden Tea, Discussion Smoothie and Snacks, The TYS Farm-to-Table Community Lunch and a refreshing Hike on our Working Farm.
