October 6-8 Morven Park, Leesburg
DEAR PRINCE WILLIAM COMMUNITY
I
am truly honored to have the opportunity to write you a personal note about a new, meaningful weekend-long program coming to Northern Virginia in October. The Inaugural NoVa Wellness & YogaFest Retreat was planned with you in mind, will be wrapped around nature at Historic Morven Park in Leesburg and is truly a weekend for everyone. Whether a Yoga enthusiast or not, I ask and encourage you to come on out, drop into some of the many classes offered and feel the dif-
ference. Come to a Mindfulness or Meditation Session or Workshop, listen, take what you’ve heard or practiced and be on your way to a calmer, more reflective you. We have over 50 combined yoga classes, workshops, wellness discussions, meditative nature walks and more. I was very moved and touched when reading the bios of our Yoga practitioners who jumped right on board to be part of this weekend, and saw that many of them came to yoga during a difficult period in
their lives. That resonated with me because my thinking about, then planning over the past years to bring this weekend of calm and t r ans for m a tion so needed in Northern Virginia’s fastpaced lifestyle, came to me during a rough time in my life. We all have them; it’s part of the journey, and I hope you’ll let all of us help you through yours. I am particularly affected by how hard our teens are having it these days. My younger son, Connor, sure did, so we have several poignant workshops planned for them on Sunday and we hope they’ll all come out. You can view our entire schedule and find everything you
need to know on our website at www.NoVaWellnessYogaFestRetreat. com where you can register, too. Come enjoy, relax, smile, take a few or many yoga classes, immerse yourself in a discussion, workshops, long walks about Morven Park, the great food in our fresh and local food tent or just sit by the reflecting pool and do just that, reflect. Peace,
