moon soma retreats

Our September 2026 yoga retreat is intentionally timed around the Fall Equinox, a powerful seasonal threshold that symbolizes rest, refinement and balance. As day and night meet in equal measure, we’ll work with this natural moment of equilibrium to support clarity and conscious intention-setting for the season ahead.

Held in the peaceful coastal setting of Encinitas, our day together is designed as a sacred pause from the pace of everyday life. Through nourishing yoga, somatic movement, breath work, meditation, and deep rest, you'll be guided to soften habitual tension, cultivate presence, and return to the wisdom of the body.

Beyond the practices, you'll enjoy nourishing food, time to rest and connect, and the simple medicine of being held by nature and community. Moon Soma is an invitation to come home to yourself, grounded, restored, and aligned with the natural cycles that support growth, healing, and transformation.

  • It was an incredible experience that combined the actual practice of yoga with deep self evaluation, understanding and sharing in a safe and loving environment. I felt "present" the entire time on the island and was sad to leave my wonderful retreat friends. The food was beyond amazing. Alana and Lauren were the best. I came home having grown as a person and looking forward to their next retreat.

  • Alana and Lauren created an amazing yoga retreat in a magical environment. The activities, the deep soul sharing, the beautiful beach home and amazing food were fantastic. I have attended many yoga retreats in various places in the world. This one and one last year in Bhutan were the most life changing I have experienced.

  • Alana and Lauren made this Kauai retreat to an unforgettable experience for me. Their love, energy and strong commitment created a lovely space for slowing down as well as for nourishing body, mind and soul. It was clearly recognizable how much effort they have put into the details while still keeping enough flexibility for everyone to have enough community as well as own time. Especially the mix of different activities made this retreat to a very special one!
