I spent a few days at the Bloom Holistic retreat with Pat and Jen from Octopus Garden and it was a beautiful and transformative weekend. Pat and Jenn are gentle and knowledgeable teachers who put together various yoga practices that were inspiring and thoughtful. It was a wonderful space to engage in self-discovery, awareness and connection.

The meals were delicious and the setting inside and outside is stunning. I loved the opportunity to swim, hike and paddleboard during our leisure time. While I went with a few friends from the YTT program at OG, I enjoyed meeting and getting to know new friends. Throughout the weekend and afterwards, I felt a deep sense of relaxation and calm, as well as gratitude.

I cannot recommend this retreat space enough and I hope to be back soon! ~ EI
