The retreat space is located 22 miles west of the Austin airport in Dripping Springs, TX. Prior to the retreat we’ll be sending out a survey to see who is interested in car pooling and can help coordinate that!

Nope! This retreat is for all levels, including beginners. That goes for meditation too! If you are feeling the call, please come. YOU ARE WELCOME AS YOU ARE!
4) What’s the attire?
Yoga clothes, and movement clothes you feel comfortable meditating in. Layer up as temperatures are known to fluctuate in Texas this time of year.
5) Do I need to pack all white clothing to wear when we are doing Kundalini?
In the Kundalini tradition, we wear all white to remind us of our essence and to expand the aura. We will be doing Kundalini throughout the retreat, but white clothing is absolutely optional. You absolutely do not have to pack anything white, or you can pack everything white, or a healthy mix of both… totally up to you!
Things to bring:
- Pen
- Water bottle
- Utensils & bowl or plate
- Meditation shawl, jacket or sweater for layering for brisk mornings
- Sheep skin, yoga mat, meditation cushion or anything you might need to be comfortable
- Toiletries
- There are no mirrors so we suggest to bring a small if you need it
A note from Onkar & Meg:
There’s no denying 2020 has brought its challenges. Now more than ever, nourishing our hearts and spirits is so important. There is something so wonderfully cathartic about gathering with other women and simply sharing where you’re at, being in each other’s company and joining together with an intention of love. We created this retreat with the intention to uplift one another and to release whatever it is that’s on our hearts in a safe and loving space. When we nurture ourselves, we nurture the world. For Meg, this retreat is so special as it’s her first one back after having her sweet baby boy in May. She’s delighted at the thought of gathering with an incredible group of women and being immersed in the magical energy that you can only find at retreats. For Onkar, this retreat will be her first weekend gathering since moving from L.A. to Austin, Tx. She believes in immersing oneself in community, meditation, yoga and nature brings us back to our innate essence of the heart. Reminding us that there is always beauty, peace and joy to be had.. no matter how chaotic life can seem at times. We are so excited to welcome every sweet soul who this retreat calls in. Please reach out to us if you have any questions at all!
With love and gratitude,
Meg and Onkar
