About the Course
Yoga retreat
This yoga retreat you live for two weeks in a natural rhythm, in a relaxed environment. The first week is about finding yourself through meditative walks in nature, the second week you work on your asana technique and learn which asanas are right for you and which ones are not.
By Pinky More and Richard Slager.
Your body is capable of healing anything, but to be healthy you have to do something for it. Rest and relaxation, a proper daily rhythm, exercise and healthy eating are paramount to that.
In the first week you will use Indian meditation techniques to achieve relaxation and find your deepest self again. Although we are all in some way engaged in consciousness and personal development, we often don’t dwell on it long enough to really change anything in our lives. The surroundings of Centre Lothlorien are a true walking paradise. With many forests, vast fields, lakes, streams and valleys and above all no people to be seen, it is easy to really come back to yourself.
In the second week you will be supported in adopting the right posture in your asana practice. You will receive guidance in finding appropriate intermediate steps depending on your own abilities and limitations. Special attention is paid to your body type and which asanas are or are not suitable for you.
You do not need to have mastered the asanas to participate in this week.
