A Year of Mindfulness Retreating

A Year of Mindfulness Retreating

Many of you have been showing up for my 15-minute retreats!  It is wonderful to see how even just 15 minutes a day of practice has such a positive and long lasting impact.

“My 300 hour yoga Teacher training with Cyndi Lee elevated my teaching practice in every way possible, but especially with creating a full spectrum yoga class. Cyndi masterfully integrates the Buddhist teachings into every asana practice — even just observing her methodology is immensely helpful. After the training, I felt empowered to launch a very successful private practice in NYC and joined the faculty of a prestigious university as part of their mindfulness program. The entire world opened up!”
