Ebb & Flow Coastal Retreat

Join Kaneel and Turning Tides this summer for a unique retreat blending mindfulness meditation and environmental science. Ebb & Flow is an invitation to pause, engage your sense of curiosity and play, and connect with the rhythmic cycles of the tides.

This day-long retreat invites you to move beyond the typical beach getaway and intentionally learn about the beach itself. Throughout the day, we will explore the coast through a series of immersive mindfulness practices, including:

Meditation

Slow down with guided mindfulness meditations inspired by the sounds of the sea

Ocean dip*

Awaken your mind and body as you immerse yourself in the water, allowing the waves to wash over you gently

Mindful Beach Combing

Observe the miniature treasures the tide has left behind

Walking Meditation & Coastal Ecology

Learn to walk with intention along the shore, noticing the marks animals leave in the sand, deepening your connection to the wildlife that inhabits the beach

Gourmet Lunch

Savor a delicious, locally-sourced and homemade meal featuring sustainable seafood, fresh seaweed, and seasonal vegetables

Guided Tidepooling

Cultivate wonder as you peer into the miniature worlds of tidepools with marine biologists from Turning Tides

Journaling

Embrace quiet time for personal reflection and centering

Community connection

Listen from the heart in our community sharing circle
