Septmeber 2016: Relaxing Yoga and Meditation Beach Retreat in Andalucia, Spain

Treat yourself this autumn to a wonderful and relaxing yoga and meditation retreat by the beach

I fell in love with yoga and its philosophy over 10 years ago when I first began to practice. Yoga, both on and off the mat, has taught me to be a more patient, compassionate and kind person. I continue to learn each day both from other great and inspiring teachers and from my own personal practice which allows me to connect with my inner self on a deeper level.

I experienced many of the health benefits of yoga, which inspired and motivated me to teach and help others.

Yoga is an ancient tradition that dates back to many centuries ago. Since then, numerous types of yoga have emerged. Though they may differ slightly in their teachings, their ultimate goal is very similar: to improve our health and wellbeing on all levels.

A yoga retreat is an amazing opportunity to fully emerge yourself in your practice while being away from home and all the distractions, responsibilities and work duties.

In my personal experience, going on a yoga retreat helped me to enrich and deepen my practice while also providing me with the opportunity to meet some wonderful people and to make new friends, who I still continue to keep in touch with today.

This September, I have the pleasure of being a guest instructor at a relaxing yoga and meditation beach retreat near Cadiz in Southern Spain.

The yoga retreat is suitable for all levels – from complete beginners to more advanced practitioners. It’s an opportunity for those participating to deepen their practice while enjoying a relaxing and fun holiday in the warm and sunny Spain.

We’ll begin each morning with meditation, followed by an hour and a half of yoga. There will be one more yoga class in the late afternoon too.

Each day you will be provided with three delicious vegetarian (or vegan) meals cooked with organically grown products from the local area.

The retreat will take place in September the 18th to 23rd, 2016.  You can find out more information on the complete program on my retreat page or visit Lucia Yoga Retreats where you can also book your place.

There is less than one week left until the 10% discount offer ends so hurry ! 🙂

I hope to see you there my dear yogis and yoginis!

Namaste.

 

 

 

 

Morning Yoga Routine To Awaken and Energize

Yoga practice is great at any time of the day, but I do love to begin each new day with an energizing routine to help awaken the body and mind.

The above video is a routine that you can try at the start of your day too. It is not guided so you may wish to watch it once first to get a feel of the postures (asanas) involved.

The practice begins with a few rounds of sun salutations to warm up the body and increase the heart rate, before moving on to the main asana part.

It was my intention originally to add narration, however I am currently experiencing some microphone issues! Since it’s the first ever yoga video I have made any feedback will be more than welcome. Please feel free to comment below.  If you would really prefer some narration over the video then let me know, and I’ll find away to resolve the microphone issue. 🙂

 

Namaste!
