🌿 Yoga, Hike & Sound Healing at The View Winery

/in /by

A Morning of Renewal, Heart Opening & Okanagan Beauty

Step into the magic of spring in the Okanagan — a season of awakening, soft light, and new beginnings.

You’ll arrive at 9:45 AM for a peaceful guided hike through The View Winery’s 100-year-old apple orchard, where the trees are bursting with fresh buds and the air is filled with the scent of new growth. We’ll wander through the vines as the valley comes alive in soft morning light, eventually reaching a 360° panoramic view of the Okanagan below.

At the top, we’ll settle in for a deeply nourishing Yin-style yoga practice, focused on heart opening, breath, and inner renewal. This slow, meditative flow invites you to melt tension, release stored emotion, and reconnect to your body’s natural rhythm — all accompanied by the live, ethereal sounds of the electric handpan, played by Connor from Quantum Healing.

💫 As the handpan vibrates through the open air, the valley echoes back. The sun warms your skin, the breeze brushes your face, and you feel completely grounded — open, peaceful, and free.

🎶 Live Sound Healing with Connor

With over 14 years of experience in Meditation, Qi Gong, Reiki, and Akashic Records Healing, Connor channels sound as medicine. His electric handpan, tuned to therapeutic frequencies, supports deep energetic release and emotional harmony — creating an unforgettable, healing atmosphere in nature’s embrace.

🍷 Private Wine & Cider Tasting

After yoga, we’ll make our way back down to The View’s stunning patio for a private guided tasting of estate-crafted wines and Wards ciders. Sip, savor, and connect with your community as you soak in the calm glow of your morning practice.

Yoga & Horse Meditation Among the Vines at The View Winery!!

/in /by

I’m absolutely thrilled about this one! I’ve collaborated with The View Winery to bring you an unforgettable morning of yoga, mindfulness, and breathtaking views.

We’ll gather by the picnic tables to the left of the winery at 9:45 AM, and from there, embark on a 10-15 minute walk through the vineyard to reach the top. Here, with panoramic views of Kelowna as our backdrop, we’ll begin a serene yoga session amidst the orchard.

Certified yoga instructor Aleena McKinnon will guide you through a calming practice designed to help you relax, let go, and connect with the present moment. This slow, flowing class is like a moving meditation—fluid, rhythmic, and gentle, offering a peaceful retreat for your body and mind.

After yoga, the magic truly begins. The horses will join us, and Aleena will lead you through an incredible horse meditation.

Horses, with their heightened sensitivity, are deeply attuned to our energy. Through breathwork and mindfulness, we can create a calming connection with these magnificent animals. This meditation allows you to quiet your mind, embrace the present moment, and experience the profound harmony that comes from connecting with horses.

This equine meditation is a heart-centered experience open to everyone, offering serenity, healing, and joy. Whether you’re new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, you’ll leave feeling relaxed, refreshed, and deeply connected to nature and yourself.

After this transformative morning, we’ll stroll back down through the orchard to the tasting room for a curated wine tasting led by The View Winery staff. It’s the perfect way to round out a truly unforgettable experience.
