Spring Equinox Women's Reset with Natalie Kraus | Bowen Island

Spring Equinox Women's Reset with Natalie Kraus is a wellness retreat for women, held at Nectar Yoga Retreat on Bowen Island, British Columbia. It is timed to the spring equinox, the point in the year when day and night are close to equal length, and it is hosted by Natalie Kraus as one of the independently run retreats that visiting teachers and facilitators offer at Nectar.

For women in and around Vancouver, it is an easy way to take a reset close to home. Bowen Island is about twenty minutes from the city.

The Setting

Nectar Yoga Retreat sits in the forest on Bowen Island, known in the Squamish language as Nexwlélexwm, in Howe Sound northwest of Vancouver. The property is known for its geodesic yoga dome, set beneath cedar and fir, where a warm fireplace and calming forest views make a quiet room for gathering. Retreats here draw on the surrounding nature, from coastal rain and fog to the stillness of the trees.

Nectar describes its community retreats as a place to find equilibrium and a rooted connection within yourself, in the company of others who are there for the same reason. Visiting teachers bring a range of practices and perspectives, and the retreats are run with a commitment to integrity and sustainability.

Before You Go

This is a women's retreat, so it suits anyone looking for a seasonal pause among other women. Nectar's community retreats are led independently by each facilitator, so questions about the schedule, what to bring and what is included are best answered by the details shown on this page and by Natalie Kraus herself.
