A MORNING OF RENEWAL: EASING INTO AUTUMN RETREAT WITH ANDREA BOGART MINDFUL LIVING

As summer's energy begins to soften into fall, join us for a morning of movement, creativity, and quiet reflection at the beautiful MacArthur Place Hotel. Designed to fit easily into a busy schedule, our morning wraps by 1:30— leaving you free to linger poolside, wander the grounds, or simply carry the calm with you into the rest of your day.

We'll open with a breath work meditation and transition into a Yoga-Pilates Fusion Mobility session led by Andrea Bogart, an E-RYT certified Yoga + Mindfulness instructor with 14 years of teaching experience. A dedicated advocate for whole-body wellness, Andrea draws on a background in yoga, dance, acting, and mindful living writing to design empowering sessions that support mental health, renewal, gratitude, and stress reduction. A Sonoma mama of two, she'll guide us through a grounding blend of strength, breath, and gentle release to meet the season's shift.

From there, we welcome multidisciplinary artist Rachel Brooks  for a Watercolor & Mindfulness workshop. A Bay Area–based visual artist, muralist, and creative director known for bold, textured, expressive work, Rachel brings a deep belief that creativity is essential to wellbeing— and that it flourishes when we slow down, engage our senses, and trust our intuitive process. No painting experience necessary, just an open hand and an open mind, as we capture the turning light of early autumn on paper.

Embracing the beautiful grounds of MacArthur, we’ll journey poolside for a nutrient rich lunch prepared by Layla. We’ll close with seasonal journaling prompts and the option to share in community— because our stories, spoken aloud, have a way of inspiring one another and reminding us how connected we truly are.

We welcome you for a morning to move, create, breathe, and nourish— exactly what this in-between season calls for.
