We've been on the road a lot lately to far-flung destinations, and while we truly love it, once springtime approaches we are happy to be close to home.
Now that everyone is back in the U.S., Yatra's spring season begins in Taos, NM. From April 17-19, Karuna DiLibero will teach four two-hour classes at a special weekend retreat at El Monte Sagrado Living Resort and Spa, and you can read all the details here. Karuna has just returned from winter in Scotland (where it rains a lot) and we welcome her back to New Mexico, where the sun shines more than 300 days a year, and you can see the whole sky, all the time.
We're pleased to be working with new friends at El Monte Sagrado, an award-winning destination that is easily one of the most eco-friendly luxury resorts in the world. The site boasts a Biolarium and The Living Machine, a holistically-designed eco-structure that incorporates recycled water, plants, and rock formation in a self-sustaining ecosystem. This ecosystem flows throughout the property and creates an enclosed sanctuary around the resort's pool. By treating and recycling the water with natural filters and purifiers, El Monte Sagrado sustains a fertile year-round environment, even at 7,000 feet above sea level.
On top of all that, there's a top-notch spa, and restaurant, all in a picturesque mountain town where you can hike, bike and escape the clamor of everyday life. We hope to see you there.
