Yoga retreat
“Nourish - a weekend of movement, stillness and breath to settle the mind and feed the soul”
The changing of seasons are a time of transformation, change, nature and new beginnings. The transition from late spring to early summer is an opportunity to take stock, set our intentions and review those we might have made at New Year. A time for planting seeds to nurture, and to witness the unending cycle of growth and change.
During this 3 day retreat, Kat will guide you daily through various practices; mindfulness to bring you into the present moment, breathwork to increase vitality and calm the nervous system, asana to improve circulation, bodily awareness and energy and yoga nidra to promote deep rest and develop our connection to your authentic self.
There will be plenty of time to be in nature, to walk, to read, to rest or to book a massage or organic facial treatment.
You will be nourished by the fresh mountain air and Katrien’s delicious cooking. And for the ones who want to expèriment more in the kitchen, optionally you can take part in an intuitive cooking workshop.
We look forward to sharing this special weekend with you. The classes will be given in English, but translations into Spanish can also be provided.
Anyone can participate, even those who have never done yoga before.
