The Happiness Retreat
With Angelica Tarquinio
January 30 - February 1, 2026
Oftentimes, we find ourselves weighed down by anger and regrets of the past or anxieties about the future. The mind vacillates back and forth, leaving us disconnected with the present moment, where happiness truly resides. The SKY Breath Meditation uses the powerful Sudarshan Kriya breathing technique to bring the mind back to the present moment and connect us to our inner power.
Based on ancient Vedic wisdom, this unique breathing practice uses various rhythms of the breath to balance our emotions and give us a boost of energy. We gain focus and clarity to take on life’s challenges with a smile. As the mind and emotions harmonize, we experience a significant reduction in stress and anxiety and an overall improvement of health. Many participants share experiences of relief from various long- and short-term health issues. As an added bonus, participants receive a take-home practice easy enough to include in their daily self-care routines.
