Women's Harvest Full Moon Healing Retreat Under the Redwoods

  • Amelia's Backyard Sanctuary Danville, CA United States (map)

No experience needed. Just curiosity.

Join us for a magical evening of healing, movement, meditation, connection and full moon release under the Harvest Full Moon.

Enjoy four hours dedicated to soul-care, designed to connect with yourself, nature, and community. And under the Harvest Full Moon, you’ll have the opportunity to release what you’re ready to let go of.

An evening just for you (or come with a friend)

Sometimes the greatest gift is time to slow down, tune in, and reconnect with yourself—without the pressure to perform or produce. You’re invited to spend the evening nourishing your body and soul.

Slip away with us to a beautiful backyard retreat in Danville, CA. Let the steadiness and beauty of the redwoods that shelter this nurturing space help you unwind and reset, quieting the chatter of your mind and opening your heart to the wisdom that’s within you.

Come solo for some quiet space or bring a friend and enjoy the time together. Either way, you’ll leave feeling more present, refreshed, and reconnected — with yourself and the world around you.

Amelia Andeleon

Amelia Andaleon

"Get curious not furious" is one of Amelia Andaleon's mottos. She credits meditation and yoga for bringing out the softer, calmer, kinder version of herself. Decades of operating as a high-achiever in a demanding, fast-paced corporate career, eventually led to burnout and chronic fatigue syndrome. The word "YOGA", written on a prescription pad by her naturopath, pointed her towards yoga and her path to teaching.

Amelia has been leading yoga and meditations since 2012, and she's been practicing yoga since 1986. She weaves yoga philosophy and stories into her classes, as well as creates time in silence for students to create their sacred space.

Amelia leads 200hr yoga teacher trainings (YTT), through Spiritually Fit Yoga, her Registered Yoga School (RYS). She hosts international yoga retreats, and offers yoga, meditation, reiki, and sound baths in the San Francisco Bay Area. She is also a publisher on the Insight Timer meditation app.

Amelia has deep roots in the Pacific Northwest, strong ancestral connections to her filipino culture, loves nature, her family & dog, and embodies the spirit of an adventurous, travel-loving Sagittarius.

Hannah Knapp

Hannah Knapp

Hannah Knapp has been meditating since 2012, when she dove in head-first with a 10-day Vipassana retreat. It was during that retreat that she realized she was ready for the adventure of pregnancy and parenting. Coming out of that experience, she knew she needed a community to practice with: there was just nothing like meditating with other people. Her passion for sharing the power of mindfulness has led her to launch (and lead) group meditations wherever she’s worked, and to start WITHIN Meditation.

Through mindfulness, she’s developed a deep resilience, focus, and capacity to love that she draws on every day, both as the mom of two children and as an entrepreneur. She’s delighted to be leading meditation sessions in our online studio and in companies throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and across the country, while building an amazing team of teachers at WITHIN.
