Yoga & Nature 

Villa Svärdsö, Torö Nynäshamn
October 2022

Leave the busy city and come and relax, release and rejuvenate in the beautiful nature that the Stockholm archipelago can offer. We start the day with soft yoga in our private secluded yoga shala overlooking the Baltic Sea. The day is about slowing down, reflecting and practicing yoga asana, prayanama and stillness.

Yoga & Hike 

Engelberg, Switzerland
Date: 31 Aug - 4 Sept 2022

Welcome to a yoga retreat that seeks to connect your inner well-being with the beautiful mountain surroundings of the fairylike Alp village Engelberg. Open your mind and body to the beautiful scenery as you enhance your yoga practice on the mountain or in the beautiful old Benedictine Monastery dated 1735.  We will be sensing the body from the inside rather than looking at it from the outside. We will peel off layers of tension to rejuvenate.
 
This will be a moment for you to enjoy the beautiful Alps and at the same time dive into your yoga journey. We will have journaling workshops and an introduction to yoga philosophy. No prior yoga training is required, all levels are welcome. Limited space is available as we believe in smaller groups. 
 
Send us an email if you want to learn more about the retreat & save a spot.
