Stephanie, Sweden
My perception of life changed with a shift to higher vibrations. Although i return home to Sweden all the old places seemed brighter, happier, livelier. I feel stronger inside of me closer to myself and my path.
Sara, Scotland
Morning meditation and yoga by the pool, as lizards and butterflies played close by, was a very beautiful, spiritual way to start the day. The accommodation was in a clean, calming villa overlooking the hills and down to the beach.
Sometimes we would practice meditation or a mindfulness activity in the mountains or by the beach, as well as swimming in clear, aquamarine natural pools or the sea. Breath work, manifestation, sound healing and ecstatic dance were wonderful new experiences for me.
The program created such an authentic atmosphere that everybody bonded quickly, so even though I went on my own, I soon felt as though I was on a trip with a group of much loved friends.
Helen Bissett, United Kingdom
We all have our own reasons to go to a Yoga retreat. For me, I had hit a crisis in my life and needed to find a way forward. I came to the retreat feeling broken and I left healed. The yoga practice, information shared, being close to nature, the challenging but often breathe taking treks, tasty and healthy food as well as the knowledge and compassion of the instructors all played a part. Something awoke within me and I left with the strongest desire to deepen and expand my yoga practice. Thank you.
