A restorative 4-day-retreat to strengthen your physical, mental & spiritual wellbeing through yoga, science-based practices, nature, sauna, food, community & just being."
Description
Leave your daily stresses behind, let yourself go & arrive into stillness at wonderful Shambala Gatherings.
This retreat focuses on your physical, mental & spiritual recovery & wellbeing. It is an opportunity for you to strengthen all parts of you within a safe & supportive community. Drop demands & expectations. Immerse yourself in yoga & embodiment practices. Enjoy peaceful nature, daily saunas, delicious food, a genuine community experience & time to just be.
Soft & gentle yet powerful yoga practices, including science based practices for body, mind & soul, will be offered daily. Somatic exercises, breathing exercises & meditation will be intertwined with music, poetry, yoga philosophy, science & life experiences. By exploring yogic sleep in yoga nidra you will have the opportunity to experience deep relaxation. We will discuss how yoga & body-oriented therapeutic practices can support your physical, mental & spiritual health. You will learn simple & practical tools for self-regulation that you can integrate into your daily life to improve your wellbeing, both short- & long term. We will be alternating movement with stillness & social connections with free-time.
Shambala invites you to enjoy daily saunas & refreshing lake swims, peaceful walks in lush forests, & delicious & nutritious food. Participation in activities is optional. Last but not least - you will have plenty of time for reflection & just being.
You are welcome to join exactly as you are, whether you are a new or experienced yoga practitioner. My hope is that you will leave with a felt sense of calm, presence & gratitude, feeling inspired, full of energy & self-compassionate.
A warm welcome to join me this weekend!
