Yoga, Breathwork & Yoga Nidra Retreat
with Emily Wright & Rachel Blume
April 20-26, 2026
An immersion into the wisdom of the body, deep rest, breath and nature to soothe the nervous system, brighten creative force and connect to heartfelt community.
❤️
Each day will include morning practices of yoga asana, dynamic movement and meditation, and evening practices of yoga nidra and breathwork, designed to interconnect and build over the week. The schedule will unfold at a slow, relaxed pace with plenty of space to sauna, walk along the countryside saying hello to the chickens, cows and alpacas, lounge in one of the many cozy communal spaces and indulge in simple pleasures.
Through it all, this special experience will unfold as a deep dive into the essence of the heart, and how it can be deeply felt in our lives and far beyond our time together.
Our retreat home is Rosso, a beautiful countryside locale, steeped in history and renovated with love and intention. The many warm, communal spaces, including a spacious atelier with a fireplace, study and sauna, welcome you to unwind and rest in good company.

Retreat Team
-
Yoga, Meditation & Yoga Nidra
Emily’s greatest guides are creativity, honesty and compassion.
She combines a variety of disciplines, from yoga asana rooted in the lineage of ashtanga vinyasa to integral coaching to pranayama, to build a class experience that is dynamic, lighthearted and heartfelt.
As a teacher, her mission is to see the freedom and peace found in practice as a catalyst for creatively contributing to the greater good.
-
Breathwork & Meditation
Rachel’s greatest guides are love, intuition and the wisdom of the natural world.
As a spiritual therapist, seer, and sacred ceremonialist, she helps others awaken self-love, release what no longer serves and remember their wholeness through breathwork, intuitive guidance, and flower essences.
Rooted in Topanga Canyon, California, she draws inspiration from the land — the wildflowers, the ocean, the stillness, and the quiet teachings of nature. Her work is an invitation to return home to your heart, your truth, and the divine presence that lives within.
Curious what breathwork is?
Breathwork is an ancient and transformative healing modality rooted in the simple, yet profound act of conscious breathing.
Through specific patterns and rhythms of breath, practitioners learn to regulate the nervous system, release stored emotions, and restore balance to the body and mind. Breathwork invites us into the present moment — where healing, insight, and transformation naturally unfold.
With consistent practice, one may experience:
Heightened states of spiritual awareness and connection
Profound emotional release and heart expansion
Enhanced mental clarity, focus, and creativity
A deep sense of inner peace, vitality, and resilience
At its essence, breathwork teaches us to listen — to the rhythms within us, to the quiet intelligence of the body, and to the pulse of life itself. Each conscious breath becomes a sacred act — a remembrance of who we are beneath the noise and the roles we play.

How do I get there?
For guests flying in, I recommend flying into Munich Airport or taking the local train into Munich from another city. From Munich, guests will take the regional train to Memmingen where a retreat shuttle will be arranged to transfer the group to Rosso on April 20.
