Come and dive into the wonderful world of Yoga

and learn how to take it home with you

This weekend retreat is one of our little gems. It’s our offer to take you away and transform your mind, body, life and way of being – through Yoga, Diet, Peace, understanding of wonderfully practical Yoga Philosophy, connection to nature and time away from the internet and phones. What we offer is very different, so please read on!

YOUR BODY

Here at the Ashram we actually TEACH Yoga. We want you to understand WHAT you are doing, HOW, and WHY. We teach you how to GET TO KNOW and then LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.

We will teach you an amazing approach to Yoga, completely tailored for your own individual body. You will receive variations, adjustments and explanations for every posture. We sometimes change the postures just in the slightest way, leaving you feel open and amazing, and giving you a completely new experience of what you thought Yoga could be.

In this retreat we go workshop style through the various principles of Yoga. Forward Bends, Sidebends, Turns and Chest Openers. How to get the most out of each posture, exactly where to feel the stretch, how you can fine-tune each posture until it feels perfect for you, and how to feel wonderfully open and comfortable in each posture, without pain or discomfort (yes, even in backbends).

You will leave here with a yoga sequence specifically designed for your body, which you can take home and practice by yourself (maybe even with your friends).

DIET

At the Ashram we provide a delicious VEGAN diet. You’ll be surprised how tasty this can be. We eat a lot of salad, fruit, wonderfully prepared vegetables and grains, as well as home made breads and fabulous home made breakfasts. If you have never eaten a lovingly and well prepared vegan meal, now is your chance.

On Sunday, we have a lecture on Ayurveda, which is the ancient yogic system of health through Balancing your Body, Mind Emotions, and raising your vibrations of consciousness. We begin by understanding our own specific body type, as we are all fundamentally different and all have different needs. You will learn your body type and leave here with an understanding of the kinds of foods which are beneficial for you and which not. This is not just about more salads, but which foods specifically for you personally.

LIFE PHILOSOPHY and PEACE

Our Philosophy workshop will teach you the wonderfully practical ways of the ancient Yogis to happiness and a more peaceful life. This knowledge is still very much valid for our every day lives today.

CONNECTION TO NATURE

Our set up is comfortable, yet close to nature. All our activities take place in areas outside, with incredible jungle and river views. (of course there is a roof for sun). You will be staying in your own private jungle bungalow, going to sleep to crickets and the sounds of the river. Remembering your roots, walking barefoot in the river, playing in the waterfall. No sounds of cars or the city life. PEACE.

INTERNET FREE SPACE

Internet is available for real emergencies only. Remember the beauty of human interaction without phones? The peace when it doesn’t ring? Time away from the screen and looking at a beautiful waterfall instead?

On Sunday, we have a lecture on Ayurveda, which is the ancient yogic system of health by understanding food and your body type, as we are all different and have different needs. You will learn your body type and leave here with an understanding of the kinds of foods which are beneficial for you and which not. This is not just about more salads, but which vegetables specifically, or which oils, nuts, grains etc for your specific body).
