Dawn Peer

Dawn Esposito Peer, MS, E-RYT, Reiki Master Teacher, Spiritual Life Coach and Intuitive has had a personal yoga practice for more than 26 years. She specializes in Restorative Yoga and has held many yoga and healing retreats across the globe for women. Dawn guides her students and clients to explore their unique talents and gifts through her many offerings to help others find their authentic self, promote self-awareness and their connection to their Higher Self. Dawn decided it was her mission to start yoga and healing retreats for women just like herself who needed the long
overdue time for self- care, connection to other like- minded women- in a safe non-judgmental space in order to live one’s best life.

“Menla is indeed magical, a place out of time that is rich in presence. The vibrational quality of this sanctuary is palpable as well as the magnificent natural beauty. Healing, peaceful and luminous with Light, a pilgrimage to Menla evokes the proverbial Medicine Mountain, and yet it is so close to NYC. Our Ayurvedic massage and experience at Dewa Spa was transporting, regenerative and deeply nourishing. Looking forward to our next retreat here and sharing this treasure with friends.”

Sarah Drew

“Going to Menla is like dropping out of time. The physical beauty and stillness of the place is unique. The accommodations are just right – comfortable but not ostentatious. The food is amazing and clearly made with attention and love. Thank you!”

Sylvia E.
