YOGA FOR DEEP RELAXATION & RECOVERY
SEPTEMBER 24 – 29
Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and embark on a journey of deep relaxation and rejuvenation. This tranquil retreat, designed for ultimate recovery, is offering a haven for those seeking solace, restoration, and inner peace.
Having experienced myself decades in the fast lane, I meticulously crafted the retreat’s program around techniques promoting deep relaxation, which will allow participants to unwind, release tension, recharge and equally nourish body, mind, and spirit.
Indulge in restorative practices, from gentle Yin yoga to Yoga Nidra, breath-work to guided meditations, all carefully curated to soothe the nervous system, calm the mind, and alleviate physical discomfort. You will be gently guided on this journey, learning to surrender to the present moment, cultivate mindfulness, and tap into the body’s innate ability to heal and restore balance.
Tucked away in Vezelay, Burgundy, the retreat offers a range of experiences meant to enhance your relaxation and recovery journey, disconnected from the daily grind and immersed in a completely different, slower paced world.
Reconnect with nature through meditative walks, explore the thousand-plus years history of this special location, book a one-to-one private mentoring, Yoga or meditation session, or simply bask in the tranquility of our serene gardens.
However you choose to spend your free time, the retreat offers the perfect opportunity to replenish your spirit, revitalise your body, and return to your daily life feeling deeply refreshed, relaxed, and energised.
I look forward to welcoming you in Vezelay!
