Join Stacy for a soulful exploration as we delve into the most sacred connection of all – the one within ourselves. Throughout the week, you’ll be guided through a series of transformative practices, including yoga, meditation, breathwork, and journaling, all carefully curated to help you slow down, recharge, and reconnect with your inner wisdom.
In our gentle yoga sessions, you’ll flow through rejuvenating postures, allowing tension to melt away and energy to flow freely. Guided meditation sessions will lead you into a state of deep relaxation and inner peace, while breathwork exercises will help you cultivate mindfulness and presence in the here and now.
Through the art of journaling, you’ll embark on a journey of self-reflection, exploring the depths of your heart and mind with curiosity and compassion. Together, we’ll inquire into the habits that shape our lives and uncover ways to cultivate vitality and vibrancy in our daily routines.
In addition to these transformative practices, you’ll have the opportunity to experience the powerful benefits of restorative yoga, allowing your body to surrender into a state of profound relaxation and restoration.
As you immerse yourself in this sacred journey, you’ll leave the retreat with a renewed sense of clarity, purpose, and inner peace, along with practical tools and insights to integrate into your daily life. Join us as we create a safe and nurturing space to align with what truly matters and savor the beauty of being present in each moment.

Stacy McGinty
Stacy McGinty has been practicing and teaching yoga for over 20 years. Practicing life on and off the mat is all about embodying the principles and mindfulness cultivated during yoga practice into everyday experiences.
On the mat, Stacy encourages her students to listen to their inner voice, connecting with the breath, and moving in a way that feels good to the body. This practice of tuning into oneself, honoring one’s body, and finding balance can be extended beyond the mat. Off the mat, it’s about staying present, listening to our intuition, and treating ourselves and others with kindness and compassion.
In vinyasa flow, restorative yoga, and meditation, Stacy’s emphasis on finding moments of clarity and stillness within the pose teaches students to cultivate inner peace and resilience. This can be translated into daily life by finding moments of stillness amidst the chaos, whether it’s through meditation, mindful breathing, or simply taking a pause to appreciate the present moment.
Stacy’s influences, including Jason Crandell, Janet Stone, Tara Brach, and Jack Kornfield, likely inspire her teachings on integrating mindfulness and compassion into yoga practice and life. By drawing from the wisdom of these teachers, Stacy helps her students deepen their understanding of themselves and their connection to the world around them.
Ultimately, Stacy’s intention to hold space for her students to connect with at least one full breath reflects the essence of yoga: the union of mind, body, and spirit. Whether on the mat or off, practicing yoga with Stacy offers an opportunity to cultivate presence, authenticity, and inner peace in every breath and every moment.
Stacy McGinty’s extensive training highlights her dedication to holistic well-being and personal growth. With 500 hours of yoga certification, she has delved deeply into the practice, mastering various aspects of yoga philosophy, anatomy, and teaching methodologies. This level of certification suggests a commitment to honing her skills and knowledge to offer students a comprehensive and enriching yoga experience.
Additionally, her mindfulness instructor training indicates a focus on cultivating present-moment awareness and cultivating mindfulness both on and off the mat. Mindfulness practices can greatly complement yoga, enhancing the mind-body connection and promoting overall mental and emotional well-being.
Furthermore, Stacy’s certification as a Wellcoach underscores her commitment to supporting individuals in achieving their wellness goals. Wellcoaches are trained to facilitate behavior change and empower clients to make sustainable lifestyle choices that promote health and vitality. Integrating coaching principles into her teaching likely allows Stacy to offer personalized guidance and support to her students as they navigate their yoga practice and wellness journey.
By combining her expertise in yoga, mindfulness, and coaching, Stacy creates a nurturing and empowering environment for her students to explore their practice and cultivate holistic well-being. She currently teaches at Well Studio in Dublin, CA Her diverse skill set equips her to address the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of health, helping individuals to thrive both on and off the mat.
