Join Patti Quintero & Susan Chen for a long weekend of deep nourishment and rejuvenation at a beautiful private mountain retreat nestled in Topanga Canyon.
This is the ideal environment to let go of daily duties, tune inward and allow yourself to experience unprecedented
rest & reset.
During the retreat, we will immerse ourselves in the advanced technique of ‘Rounding’ which involves gentle yoga postures and breath technique to facilitate deep stress release and prepare both body and mind for a profound meditation experience.
You will have the opportunity to bask in nature, meet a wonderful group of fellow meditators and enjoy delicious farm-to-table vegetarian meals throughout your stay.
By the end of our time together, you’ll have released six months of accumulated stress in just a few days. You will return home feeling vibrant, energetic, and inspired for your next chapter of life.

Topanga
Rounding Retreat
with Patti Quintero & Susan Chen
WHAT IS ROUNDING?
Known as “industrial strength meditation,” Rounding is an enjoyable practice that prepares your mind and body for a profoundly deep meditation.
A ‘Round’ is a specific sequence of the following relaxing activities:
10 minutes of gentle asanas (stretches that anyone can do)
5 minutes of an easy breathing exercise
20 minutes of Vedic Meditation
10 minutes of lying down rest
On a Rounding Retreat, we perform multiple Vedic Rounding sequences in a day for transformational stress release.
Rounding on retreat provides the equivalent stress release of 6 months of twice-daily meditation.
words from our students…
Susan and Patti’s rounding retreat was one of the most beautiful and deeply transformative experiences I’ve had. They created such a safe and supportive environment for us to go deep into meditation and relaxation, and to unwind all the stresses we accumulate in our day to day life. I left retreat feeling like I had come home to myself and like I could handle anything that life throws my way. I have such deep gratitude for these incredible teachers and I can’t wait to attend more of their retreats in the future! ~ Whitney D.
This Topanga rounding retreat was simply amazing. The setting, food, and most importantly, the meditators and our teachers, Susan and Patti. The amount of love circulating amongst the group was incredibly powerful...allowing us to feel safe and to be able to let go of a lot of accumulated stress. We all formed an amazing bond of trust and support. I can say, truly a magical experience. ~ Win L.
Susan and Patti share the Vedic Meditation tradition with so much integrity and love. It was an honor to retreat with them in Topanga Canyon for their fall retreat. The Wisdom talks and communal meals were some of my favorite. Along with hearing the constant gentle reminder that bliss is my baseline. With so much rest and de-stressing, I was actually starting to feel it! I think we all were. There was one point we couldn’t stop giggling. Bliss was overflowing ✨ Thank you Susan and Patti! And everyone else that made this retreat possible.
