Special Solstice Retreat: Yoga and Kayak
Let’s welcome the arrival of summer with a Special Solstice Retreat: Yin and Yang yoga focused on the Sun and the Heart, from the perspective of Daoism (Yin) and Ayurveda (Vinyasa). In addition to strengthening our heart and acknowledging our inner Sun with yogic practices, we’ll exercise our arms and our ability to appreciate nature during a kayak trip along the Costa Brava.
The dynamic Yang yoga sessions will help us generate heat and eliminate toxins, while Yin yoga sessions will be soft and restorative. Together they’ll make us feel spacious, light and full of vibrant energy.
On Saturday we’ll go on a kayak route along the coast near the retreat centre (you have to be able to swim, but you don’t need to have experience kayaking). You can also come without participating in this particular activity.
We’ll stay at ESPAI DE L’HARMONIA retreat centre, a beautiful country house where we’ll feel at home in its cozy rooms, comfortable common spaces and with its delicious seasonal organic vegetarian food.
The retreat includes:
- 2 yoga classes a day with a seasonal focus
- Meditation sessions and times of silence
- Ayurvedic and Daoist practices
- 1 kayak route along the Costa Brava (optional)
- Circle of Fire
- 2 night accommodation in a very peaceful place (rooms of 3-4 people)
- 3 delicious vegetarian meals a day
