Our life is an apprenticeship to the truth, that around every circle another can be drawn; That there is no end in nature, but every end is a beginning, and under every deep a lower deep opens.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

Feb 6-12, 2012 - Embodied Heart™ Winter Women’s Retreat
Join Sara and her teaching team for 5 days of diving into the lessons of the winter season: rest, rejuvenation, and deepening insight. In the sultry scenery of the idyllic island of Koh Samui we’ll practice yoga and meditation, convene in women’s circles, dance, laugh, be silent, celebrate ourselves and one another, sip coconuts, eat delicious food, sun, and swim in the sea. We’ll consciously step out of our busy lives to come together in sisterhood and community to give support, strength, and clarity to our own evolution.
“Sara’s classes are amazing. It has been a long time since I’ve taken classes like hers. Sara, you are probably the only goddess I’ve known and called…goddess. Your classes reminded me of the goddess in me.” - Vanessa Rodriguez

The Way of the Happy Woman Book (autographed copy)
Live in accordance with nature and your soul! Our ancestors adhered to the daily, seasonal, and yearly rhythms of nature by necessity, but modern life overrides these cycles, compromising women’s health and happiness. In this book, Sara Avant Stover shows how simple, natural, and refreshingly accessible practices can minimize stress and put us back in sync with our own cycles and those of nature. When we honor spring’s seedlings, summer’s vibrancy, fall’s harvest, and winter’s quietude, we harmonize our inner and outer worlds. Sara’s recommendations nurture the body, invigorate the mind, and lift the spirit. Illustrated yin and yang yoga sequences, one-day season-specific retreats, enticing recipes, and innovative self-reflection techniques make it easy to reconnect with the essential.

Words of wisdom...
Happyness Through Yoga
Early on in her new book, "The Way of the Happy Woman," Sara Avant Stover presents the reader with a powerful insight into the effect yoga and meditation have had on her life. Stover often tells people, she writes, "that I honestly don't think I'd be alive today if I hadn't learned yoga and meditation and if I didn't practice them regularly."
That's a strong statement and one reason I found myself chatting with Stover, a Boulder resident, over a pot of organic small leaf puerh at the Trident Café on a recent spring morning. Just how did yoga and meditation save her life? And by extension, what Was really wondering was, can they save my life as well?
I was not disappointed. Reading the book, then spending an hour with Stover was like the pleasant feeling you get from a shared pot of good tea with a smart friend. Her story, full of ups and downs, is full of insights for women, of course. It also, however, valuable for men as well.
