Italy Fall Retreat 2001 These photos were taken from our most recent trip to Italy at Locanda Del Gallo in Umbria. It was a magical healing experience, occuring just two weeks after September 11th. Our brave group of traveling yogis was open and ready to embrace the practice. Our collective hearts, so in need of a splash of the divine were healed, transformed and renewed!
