Join Hudson Leick for a weeklong Healing Heart Yoga Retreat at Drala Mountain Center in the Colorado Rockies -May 11th to 17th, 2026.
Imagine giving yourself an entire week to simply be—with no roles to play, no boxes to check, and nothing to prove.
High in the Colorado Rockies, this retreat is an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with your own rhythm—away from the pace of everyday life.
Drala Mountain Center has been a sanctuary for spiritual practice and presence for more than 50 years. The land itself feels alive—quiet, spacious, and deeply nourishing. It holds you in a way that makes it easy to slow down, reflect, and feel supported from the inside out.
Throughout the week, Hudson offers practices designed to meet you gently and genuinely—yoga, meditation, movement, breath, and open-hearted inquiry. Nothing is rigid or prescribed. You’ll be guided to move and rest, speak and listen, explore and reflect—all in service of coming home to yourself in the most natural way.
This retreat isn’t about self-improvement. It’s about self-remembrance. There’s nothing to fix. Only space to rediscover your own wholeness—and let it be enough.
Your week includes:
- Twice-daily yoga sessions (except for the one day of deep rest, TBD)
- Meditation every morning
- 2 Sacred Movement/Freeform Dance classes
- Spiritual talks (topics unfold intuitively)
- A full day of deep rest (TBD)
- Beautiful meals: delicious vegan, vegetarian, and non-vegetarian options are available.
- Snacks, tea, coffee, and water are available 24/7
What a week with Hudson offers:
Each retreat with Hudson is unique, shaped by the group and the moment. But some things remain constant: the quality of presence, the permission to soften, and the deep inner shifts that tend to unfold quietly, and stay with you long after you leave.
🧘 Time to Be With Yourself
Step away from daily life and come back to what’s true for you—without pressure, without distraction, just space to breathe and be.
💗Practices That Open the Heart
Gentle movement, meditation, and stillness—offered with care—help you feel more grounded, more open, and more connected to your own experience.
🌱 Supportive Community
These retreats draw people who are willing to show up honestly. There’s comfort in being with others who are also navigating their way home to themselves.
🏞 Connection with the Natural World
Drala is spacious, quiet, and deeply alive. Nestled in the rugged beauty of Colorado, it offers a place to slow way down, surrounded by mountains, nourished by delicious food, and held by a community of kind, attentive people. The land itself seems to invite you to breathe differently.
🌌 Unfolding, Not Performing
There’s no agenda here. Hudson follows the energy of the group, meeting what arises. Nothing is forced. You are welcome exactly as you are.
👣 Simple, Meaningful Practices
Journaling, gentle reflection, breath-work, and silence become ways to listen more deeply—tools you may want to carry home with you.
Moments That Stay With You
Sometimes it’s the laughter, or it’s tears, or a walk under the stars. Sometimes it’s something unexpected. But something shifts inside you, and it is felt.
Hudson’s Presence
What she offers can’t be summarized in a list. Her honesty, humor, and care create a space that invites healing in ways words don’t always explain.
This year, we are capping the number of participants at 22.

Testimonials
Below are some excerpts of testimonials – for their full versions, please see our Testimonials page.
Healing Heart Yoga was calming, welcoming, and deeply supportive. From my very first retreat, I felt included, relaxed, and connected with everyone there.
~Elam
These yoga retreats allow everyone to feel free to explore their inner selves and hearts. And every time I go I feel safe to be me.
~Julie
Hudson is a fantastic teacher with a gift for reading and understanding people’s needs, gently encouraging each of us to listen to the truth within ourselves. The atmosphere throughout the retreat was loving, easy-going and inspiring and after only a short time together, both in and outside of the yoga room, I felt close to people who had been strangers only days before.
~Anja
‘Hudson’s yoga retreats are on another level! Her teaching is the most powerful, healing and inspiring that I have come across and you’ll come away feeling like a different person. You can feel the love and attention that goes into every class and every individual. Be prepared to be nurtured on every level including the yoga, the delicious food, the stunning venue and the Welsh mountains. Can’t recommend it enough although I don’t want all the spaces to go 😊!’
