our Services
OFFERING A VARIETY OF A LA CARTE SERVICES TO YOUR VISIT, Northaven prioritizes a unique experience.
Group and 1:1 private Yoga class
Private, one-on-one classes, and group yoga gatherings are a practical way to learn the foundation for a sustainable and potentially lifelong practice.
You’ll learn the elements of a good, balanced physical practice that includes breath + mindfulness, while soaking in the spectacular forest canopy views from our brand new 1,300 sq ft yoga space.
Cha Dao “Tea Ceremony & Meditation”
Cha Dao "The Way of Tea" is a practice that comes from ancient Chinese lineage. It has been used since its discovery by the Daoists and Sages as a form of medicine and a way to cultivate awakened presence, sustaining long states of meditation. Tea is a plant teacher, an opportunity to connect with the abundance of wild botanicals that grow locally.
Traditional Tea Ceremony
Tea is a beautiful way to come together and share space, presence, and heartfelt intention. You can sit alone, with a loved one, or in a group setting.
On average, each ceremony lasts between 1-2 hours. We accommodate tea ceremonies in any setting that suits your intention - whether it be in the warm glow of the fire in our open Yurt space, under the glowing lights and forest views in the event and yoga space, outdoors near the river or under the swaying canopy of the open forest - your tea experience will be truly personalized to you.
Gathering Setting
Tea is a wonderful addition to any retreat, workshop, or immersion space.
It can be used in the mornings as an awakening meditation to nourish, ground, and clear space for the rest of the day's work. Tea ceremony can also be served in the afternoon or early evening as a way to settle into calm after a day learning or exploring. Tea ceremony is a perfect addition to any gathering space. Depending on the size of the gathering, multiple servers can accommodate larger groups. The service of tea can work as a casual offering or formal and is a great alternative to alcohol.
Singing Bowl Meditation
Sound healing has been used for centuries to create a state of relaxation and tranquility deep within.
Research has shown that sound healing and meditation, along with other relaxation techniques, might help to reduce blood pressure and stress, as well as ease pain and anxiety. It is also effective in releasing blocked energy and emotions, taking us to a place of greater self-awareness. Singing Bowl Meditation sessions are a wonderful way to begin a retreat, gathering, or ceremony or to be used as mid-way check-in. We highly recommend using this service as grounding and deep relaxation to wrap up your journey at Northaven.
WIld Medicine Plant Walk
The Wild Medicine Plant Walk is a combination of herbal folklore and facts, plant identification, story-telling, and drinking in the sounds of nature.
The circular route takes in an easygoing terrain which is suitable for most people in good health. By the end of our walk you should be able to confidently identify a number of common medicinal plants, ending with a conversation around a pot of wild medicine tea that we will brew together. Please note that this trail is not maintained to accommodate wheelchair access.
