Training for Your Next Decade - A Weekend Retreat in Mindful Longevity

Oh, the worst of all tragedies is not to die young, but to live until I am seventy-five and yet not ever truly to have lived.

~ Martin Luther King, Jr

What will your life be like in 10 years? Aging is both a privilege and an inevitability, yet many of us either ignore or outright deny how our lifestyle, physical abilities and priorities will evolve in the years ahead.

This weekend retreat offers a refreshing and empowering alternative: a chance to intentionally plan for your next decade through the lens of mindfulness, movement, and yogic philosophy.Using the Kriya Yoga Cycle as our foundation, we’ll explore what longevity means for you personally—the promises, the challenges, and the probabilities. Through guided practices, journaling, meditation, and discussion, you’ll create your own Mindful Longevity Plan—a roadmap for thriving as you age, rooted in self-awareness and intention.

Co-led by longtime collaborators Becca Impello (physical therapist and yoga teacher with 25+ years of experience) and Kim Drye (experienced teacher and owner of West Asheville Yoga), this retreat will include yoga and mindfulness practices designed to help you cultivate curiosity, respect and intentionality for your own longevity. Expect physical yoga sessions that focus on strength building, maintaining functional movement and nourishment of the nervous system, all factors that increase in importance as we age. Becca and Kim will also guide you through mindful journaling,meditations and discussions that will help you begin building a roadmap to support your intentions for your next decade.

Whether you’re nearing a milestone birthday or simply ready to embrace what’s next, this retreat invites you to begin training now for a strong, centered, and vibrant future. Accessible to all levels—modifications and chair support available.
