6 Benefits of Wholesome Yoga Retreat Diet
The impact a yoga retreat diet can have on your overall yoga practice, health and well-being
The food that you eat has an important role in improving the quality of your yoga practice both on and off the mat. This is why we should be mindful of the dietary choices we make on daily basis.
Being an instructor at an yoga retreat, I am not only preparing yoga classes but also taking into consideration other factors that will make the retreat experience even more beneficial for those who participate. And one of these is of course diet. Luckily I have teamed up with the wonderful Lucia Yoga Retreats, who have ensured that the choice and quality of food ingredients used to prepare their daily meals is the best.
I recently wrote an article for Lucia Yoga on the health benefits of having a balanced and nutritious yoga retreat diet, which aims to help you not only make the most of your yoga retreat experience but to also encourage you to implement this habit in your everyday life. You can read the full ‘6 Benefits of Wholesome Yoga Retreat Diet’ article here.
Also, take a look at the yoga retreat that I will be running in Andalucía, Spain on September 18th – 23rd, 2016 and book your place for what promises to be a truly enjoyable and unforgettable experience. I look forward to seeing you there!

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!
