A Morning of 'Not Doing' Together
TURNING LOVE INWARD mini-retreat
Â
 with Donna Davis - March 2, 2025
Join HereThe world is swirling around you
It’s a lot (understatement of the year)
You’re keeping up with the news and social feeds, supporting others, and constantly talking about everything that’s going on— and perhaps you’re losing yourself in the shuffle.
 Your nervous system needs a REST
If it feels like nothing you've tried helps you truly relax, quiet the anxiety in your mind, or make space for yourself…...
Â
I invite you to spend time with me
NOT DOING
Not Doing is different from Doing Nothing
Not Doing is intentionally taking time to be still, to breathe, to rest and reset, bringing your nervous system back into harmony.
When you’re always Doing and always 'On' ... your mind stays scattered, your cortisol rises, you store abdominal fat, your sleep suffers, and your body gets tight holding all that tension. 🤯
Join me for this Not Doing mini-retreat
Our theme for March is Turning Love Inward, and out time together includes Heart-Centred Journalling to set your intentions, Slow Flow Yoga with Breathwork, Yoga Nidra and a healing Sound Bath experience.
Ahhhh Exhale đź’ś
You'll discover the difference between Not Doing and doing nothing... and why doing nothing, scrolling on your phone or zoning out in front of the TV may not be giving you the rest your body and spirit need.
At the end of the mini-retreat you'll feel calm and centred with a clear mind, ready to enter your busy life again.
If your body, mind and soul are craving a
big hug…

Crystal Singing Bowls
Linda Yeung is joining us again with her Singing Bowls. The bowls create a healing sound vibration leading you into a state of rest more restorative than sleep. Your nervous system will be rebalanced and you'll feel absolutely amazing.

Hi, I'm Donna

 Not Doing is a lost art. I struggled with it for years; caring for aging parents, selling my yoga studio, undergoing brain surgery, and most recently, making the tough decision to leave a 10-year corporate position.
I didn’t identify with the word burnout, but I was on edge.
Over the last year, I finally feel like I’ve returned to being myself. I no longer feel jolted by every ping on my phone, I wake up rested and happy, I was even dancing in the kitchen this week! Yoga has so many tools for us to regain our wellness and thrive.
I'm so excited to share this transformative practice with you in an in-person, mini-retreat.
It's an honor to create this space where you can take time for yourself, surrounded by an incredible group of like-minded women. 🙏
Connection and community are truly healing.
