Spring Renewal 1/2 Day Yoga & Ayurveda Retreat (Dunedin)

What's in store for the day:

• Qi kung for vitality to wake up and balance chi.
• Yoga for invigoration and kapha balancing (perfect for our gradual shift from winter ‘hibernation’ into a busier summer mode)
• A sweet *somatic yin session for nourishment, deep healing and rest.
• Breathwork for improving digestion, better circulation & stress release
• Mindfulness and meditation for emotional awareness and establish a deeper sense of inner peace.
• An organic, spring harvest lunch
• An Ayurvedic workshop including a pre-workshop intro to Ayurveda and brief ‘life audit’ quiz, and an in-session exploration of how the holistic science, art, and discipline of Ayurveda approaches personal health and life-long growth.

We’ll discover how Ayurveda lends light to:

• self-care and daily wellness practices
• food and ‘flavor’ choices for optimal health and ‘dosha’ balance
• movement (exercise) styles & needs
• lifestyle options (including better sleep & the ‘sattvic’ modality)
• Mindset & habit mastery
• finding higher purpose in our habits and life in general (beyond measurable health markers like weight loss etc.)

By the end of the day we will create a wellness vision, and an achievable, personalised ‘wellness habit’ plan for the months leading up to holidays so that we can come into the new year feeling a lot of better, not at all wiped out, and ready for great things. You’ll also receive a take home bundle with delicious essential oil blend, cacao chai spice blend, a meditation kit, and the workbook full of guidance and inspiration.

If you’ve been to any of my other workshops (Living Ayurveda, Balance Ayurveda 2021, Summer and Spring Auyerveda 2022, and the recent Winter Ayurveda), this will be a perfect refresher, with a little bit of everything from all plus more guidance on implementing whatever you need to in a manageable way for personal transformtion.

All these explorations, and modes of movement and rest, are designed to bring ease and vitality to the body, clarity, focus and peace to the mind, and warmth to the heart. In this state of feeling relaxed, serene and open, everyone around us benefits, and the world around us loses its rough edges.
