About this Event
Relax and destress before the holidays with a unique Wellness retreat at Eaton DC. The longest night of the year inspires us to look within for inner light, and illuminate the Solstice together. Retreat elements include a healing happy hour, restorative yoga, a film screening, guided meditation and visualization therapy, and VIP access to Saturday speakeasy and rooftop parties. After a weekend of collective care with us, you will walk away radiant enough to put shadows on the sky.
Join us for one night or both nights with the retreat hotel package, which secures your spot for all of the weekend's events, plus happy hour drinks and a complimentary late check-out. Want to join but can’t stay the night? Reserve your spot for each event individually via Eventbrite (links below).
