Join me for luxurious day long retreat in Malibu, California, where we will practice Yoga and learn about Ayurveda and how this ancient wisdom can help us achieve long lasting health and vibrance. Enjoy relaxing in the sun by a beautiful pool right off the ocean in Malibu with plenty of healthy Ayurvedic snacks and refreshments before sitting together and enjoying a freshly prepared seasonal Ayurvedic lunch.
