Spring 2025 Outdoor Wellness and Nature-Based Therapy Retreat

At this retreat, we will use nature as a background for learning various therapeutic and mindfulness meditation techniques that you can use in all areas of your life.

The retreat takes place at the stunning Auberge Yoga Salamandre nestled in a forest with a river running through it (see below for more photos). The Auberge is only 1 hour from Montreal and 15 minutes from Bromont.

In a beautiful setting where nature is there and easy to access, you will learn how to fully benefit from time spent outside, whether it be in the great outdoors or in the city.  You will also learn therapeutic techniques that you can use in all aspects of your life.
