What does a retreat day look like...
Refreshed by sunrise meditation and invigorating breathing exercises (Pranayama), we continue with yoga in the nature, to get ready for a raw breakfast including delicious smoothies, prepared with Superfoods and fruits that come from the nearby Costa Tropical, organically produced.
After the morning break, one can rest in a hammock in the shade of a palm tree, read a book, take a dip in the pool, chat with like-minded people or have a walk in the beautiful nature all around. Our lunch is always the biggest meal of the day and you will be amazed by the incredible variety of the gourmet raw food dishes that we serve each day.
Then it is time to drift into siesta, enjoy a massage session, a workshop or nutritional talk, nature walks, or just being...
At the end of the afternoon we come together again for a more relaxing treat of yoga, prepared for a meditative sunset view, more exquisite uncooked food at dinner.
Some evenings will have mantra-singing, others watching a inspiring DVD and a healthy night's sleep... Couldn´t life be like this everyday?
The Yoga
During the week you will be gently taken into a deepening practise of yoga postures, awareness of your body, breath and being. To do this, we will journey along your chakras, experiencing the physical, emotional and energetic effects of one each day and the whole of your awakened being together at the end of the retreat.
The morning classes will be more dynamic Hatha-Yoga, while we end the day with more calming Yin-Yoga. In all sessions there will be continued breath-awareness, to help you ease into your stretches, as well as separate Pranayama at day's start and sometimes in the evenings in the invitation to join in mantra singing.
The Raw Food
Organically grown vegetables are harvested daily and featured in vegetarian gourmet meals. Healthy menus include delicious and nutritious protein-filled super-foods lovingly prepared by our chefs.. Eating gourmet raw food is a sensational culinary experience that delights the palate and leaves you fully satiated. And we are going to show you how to prepare it!
