Yoga retreat options are plentiful, and female solo travel is more common than ever. When our #2 USA TODAY position was featured in Boston.com — which seemed to get more response than the actual contest win position — we discovered that Sewall House Yoga Retreat had been mentioned in 2018 in an article on women and solo travel!
(Don’t call us at that ancient toll-free number erroneously listed in the article. Our number is 646-316-5151.)
While there are lots of retreat options in the world we would like to offer 4 Reasons women traveling solo choose to come to Sewall House Yoga Retreat.
Reason #2: The variety of activities available beyond yoga
Sewall House Yoga Retreat offers a large variety of activities beyond yoga, which gives women the opportunity to grow and expand beyond their comfort zone, or to revisit activities they may love but not have done in ages due to the busyness of their lives.
Two things women may learn at Sewall House are to face their fears and to say “no”. We have watched women who thought they would not get halfway climb al the way up Mount Katahdin. Horseback riding, kayaking, and hiking are other experiences we have seen transform fear into boldness. (Not to mention achieving your first headstand under our expert guidance.)
Reason #3: The bonding that happens in our small, intimate groups
Bonding happens in our groups, whether it is at special events like the annual Writing from the Kundalini Soul workshop, at Yoga Teacher training, or between women who plan their own dates to retreat with us and enjoy our Daily Offerings.
Women from different backgrounds and life paths merge into their commonality after a few days of sharing yoga, meals, and more. Some of these guests stay in touch for years and even return to the same events together.
Reason #4: When you are solo you can focus on taking care of yourself
While we love having sisters, mother-daughters, and friends who come to the Sewall House Yoga Retreat together (and solo men and couples, too) we have also heard more than once that if they had not come alone, the female solo traveler guest would have felt obligated to be aware of and attentive to someone else’s needs.
Taking care of everyone else may be a big part of many women’s lives back home. So wouldn’t it be nice for them to visit a yoga retreat alone with only themselves to be concerned bout, so they can attend to their own needs, then return to their regular lives with renewed energy and clarity?
If any or all of those 4 reasons resonate with you, book your solo journey to Sewall House Yoga Retreat now.
