The Sanctuary at Carson Ridge

“You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a fine spirit of hope of achievement. You are here to enrich the world and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.”

--Woodrow Wilson—

The Sanctuary has now opened at Carson Ridge and with it comes a since of refreshment for our local community and Guests. The dynamic has changed at our quint B&B from a getaway location to place of of peace and solitude. A refuge if you will, that mends the soul without even knowing that you are being mended or needed mending.

With our first week behind us we can only be thrilled to be off to a great start. . The Sanctuary as mentioned in our publications, was created to be a gathering place for community to love, to laugh and to heal. Everyone should be allowed the life they dream of, and a place to feel joy and bliss.

Our Yoga, Meditation and healing classes come in different forms. For instance tonight we will envelope ourselves in Hatha-Anusara. Hatha a gentle yoga that emphasizes posture alignment enhancing muscle tone, flexibility and a peaceful mind while Anusara brings in a specific system of alignment principles as well as a creative, heart centered practice. This provides both a physical challenge and an inspiration to awaken you to the potential of your spiritual purpose.

A fantastic point to make also is that Yoga right now at the Sanctuary is open to all levels. If you have never been to a Yoga class then this is the perfect time for you to step in and feel what it is all about. The classes are small and intimate and you can receive more of the one on one that you may need. Also keep in mind that our bodys are quickly adaptable and will learn faster then your mind feels it should be allowed, no matter weight or body type.

Your body will thank you by quickly shedding those excess pounds, clearing all those negative thoughts from your head and heart and allowing you to breath a little easier and more efficient.

We welcome all to be a guest of the Sanctuary. Take a moment for yourself just an hour and little to relax, refresh and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul.

Tell next time ~ NM

Paradise is just 45 min away!

Are you taking advantage of this beautiful weather? A Columbia River Gorge day during November is far from this sunshine that we have experienced and 60 degree days. Soak it in and live it up, this is the perfect opportunity for an amazing hike to punch bowl falls.

Strawberry Mountain has been a prime location to view some of the most amazing sunsets this country has to offer not to mention the great trails and viewing locations from every angle of the island. Strawberry islands access points are from either the Bonneville Dam access points or beyond the North Bonneville ball field. 

Tis the season and it is approaching quickly. Thanks Giving will grace us with its presence in only six days and the holiday shopping spree has now begun. Don't forget that Carson Ridge Private Luxury Cabins offers the best gift around... Gift Certificates. Hassle free you will be giving a gift of pure luxury, soul and rejuvenation.

You also have 5 days left to enter for a chance to win a FREE all inclusive stay at Carson Ridge. Only $20 gets you an entry for one of three stays and the odds are pretty good right now if I do say so myself.

Heres to another beautiful day! 

Happy Holidays!

The Rain Has Arrived in the Columbia River Gorge....

This is the first day the rain has decided to grace us with its presence for quite some time. What's this mean? 

Fall is coming and we can see the proof of that by just looking out the window. The green is slowly but surely withering away into some fantastically beautiful golds, oranges, brilliant reds and i have even seen some outstanding versions of purple off some maple trees. Get your camera they are going to come and go quickly.

This weather is going to make some outstanding hiking, fishing and yes.. yes per our guests, I have heard even the white water rafting is outstanding right now. 

Other than the outdoor extravaganzas going on, Spring Creek National Fish Hatchery is having their annual open house today 9:00 am - 3:00 pm. 

Anyone have any spots or places that are a must see during this beautiful season?
