New Theme : A Global Journey for the Senses
Join us for a weekend Winter Yoga Retreat—a global journey for your senses. Begin each day with gentle yoga, followed by time in the great outdoors or workshops that explore taste, touch, scent, sight, and hearing. Cultivate mindfulness as we transport you to the different corners of the world. Discover diverse cultures and sensations. Disconnect from the chaos, open your heart and mind, and try new things. Reconnect with yourself in tranquil surroundings, indulge in nourishing food, and relish delightful company. Experience an unforgettable weekend of self-discovery, mindfulness, and moments that linger in your heart.
Led by the Energie EnCorps team, including lead instructor Rozel Gonzales, along with Marie-Andree Langlois, Shannon Cassidy, and Aglaya Lugo, this Winter Yoga Retreat promises an unforgettable journey of self-discovery and mindfulness. Embrace the opportunity to thrive in the serenity of winter while immersing yourself in the wonders of a global yoga adventure.
Reasons to do a Yoga Retreat
- You’ll eat well without having to cook yourself No need to worry about preparing your own meals. You will be served vegetarian meals for breakfast, lunch and supper! Everything is nutritious, tasty and fresh! Did I mention they serve fresh eggs from their farm for breakfast?
- You’ll relax and destress How can’t you relax when you’re surrounded in the most peaceful environment, doing yoga and exploring your creativity with art mandalas? Being far from home will make it easier for you to allow yourself permission to unwind.
- You’ll experience a digital detox You’ll be able to disconnect yourself from the constant social media loop that we all seem to be in. There won’t be that need to endlessly text, check your Facebook timeline and tweet.
- You’ll have a change in perspective Going somewhere new allows for the opportunity to see yourself or situations in a new light. Change is all about going into the unknown, which will ultimately lead to a transformation.
- You’ll make friends It is said that we all meet the right people, at the right time. You are bound to meet like-minded people who have similar interests, at this retreat. You might be surprised how easy you will find it to connect with others on the weekend retreat.
