Summer Retreat – Yoga & Mindfulness

“The flower doesn’t dream of the bee. It blossoms and the bee comes.”
Mark Nepo

Going to a retreat gives us the possibility to connect with what is most essential in our lives, to experience it in a more direct way, free of conditioning and more receptive and aware of ourselves and our relationships. It is an opportunity to step back from the busyness of daily life and reconnect with a sense of presence and inner peace.

Throughout the retreat, we will have mindfulness meditation, yin yoga, talks, moments to share, moments of silence, and nourishing vegetarian meals, all reflecting our quest for greater simplicity and openness. These practices work together to foster a deeper sense of awareness and harmony within ourselves and with others.

Yoga, as a mindful practice, helps to unlock the body, releasing tension and cultivating balance in our energy. It also serves as a bridge to mindfulness, anchoring us in the present moment through the rhythm of breath and movement. This balance and focus prepare the mind to go deeper into meditation, allowing us to explore and highlight the subtler aspects of our experience. Together, yoga and mindfulness invite us to inhabit our bodies and minds more fully, nurturing clarity, compassion, and a profound sense of connection.
