Feathered Pipe ~ America's finest health, wellness and yoga retreats and travel ~ Carlos Nakai – to name only a few – are honored alumni of the Feathered Pipe.

The Feathered Pipe Ranch is one of the country’s premier yoga and conscious living retreat centers. Tucked in the heart of the Montana Rockies and surrounded by miles of forested mountains, it is a vibrant and peaceful oasis to which our guests return eagerly year after year – inevitably leaving the Ranch feeling recharged and relaxed – and counting the days until they can again return. The Ranch has been home to yoga and meditation retreats and a host of other personal growth programs since 1975, helping people experience our wholeness and remember our intimate connection to all of life. Many of today’s foremost voices on yoga, meditation, wellness and health have come through our doors at one time or another, with many of them getting their start as a student through our scholarship fund. Joseph Campbell, Dr. Andrew Weil, Lilias Folan, Angela Farmer, Rodney Yee, Patricia Walden, Erich Schiffmann, Judith Hanson Lasater, Seane Corn, and world-renowned Native American flutists, R. The Ranch is nestled amidst almost a million acres of national forestland and offers an ideal setting for true retreat experience, allowing the space within and without to experience the essence of one’s self and nature. Visitors can wander alone exploring ambling brooks fed by pure mountain springs and discover open vistas to view the world below and the Big Sky above. Ranch retreat visitors can just as easily find community with others, sitting on the open lawn in the shade of cottonwood trees, quaking aspens, and fragrant pine with an exquisite view out over the lake with Lake Tipi and mountain woodlands reflected. Horseback riding is available for those wishing to view the world from a truly Montanan point of view.

Gratitude is more than just a feeling. It is the practice of going out of your way to acknowledge a person, community, or anything you value. Recent studies have also shown practicing gratitude can affect your health!

Gratitude has the ability to reduce anxiety and depression! It also helps to improve sleep quality, focus, and immunity. Over time, this practice can change the way your brain is wired to think!

Add gratitude to your daily meditation, take time to thank all those you are grateful for, and think of five things you appreciate about yourself :)

A post-season staff trip has become a lil tradition we’ve created as a way to celebrate an amazing season, and come together to have a good time and let loose! Seely Lake was a gorgeous time with beautiful hikes, late nights, dancing, DJing, hacky sacking, and so much more. Thank you again staff for the amazing work you did this season and onwards to your next adventures✨🪶❤️

"Mindfulness is a remembering—a return to our original nature. We don’t sit to find peace; peace is already here. We are already enough. There is nothing to seek."

In this article, we share an excerpt from Peter Kuhn’s book, 12 Step Zen: Pathways of Recovery, which explores the Seven Factors of Awakening and the harmony of Plum Village teachings and the Twelve…

"Every October it becomes important, no, necessary
to see the leaves turning, to be surrounded
by leaves turning; it’s not just the symbolism,
to confront in the death of the year your death,
one blazing farewell appearance, though the irony
isn’t lost on you that nature is most seductive
when it's about to die, flaunting the dazzle of its
incipient exit, an ending that at least so far
the effects of human progress (pollution, acid rain)
have not yet frightened you enough to make you believe
is real; that is, you know this ending is a deception
because of course nature is always renewing itself—
the trees don’t die, they just pretend,
go out in style, and return in style: a new style."
-Lloyd Schwartz
