FALLING INTO YOU - YIN YOGA WORKSHOP


 Autumn is a season of harvest and transformation, an extraordinary time to focus on what you want in your life and what you want to release. Immerse yourself within your inner world to strengthen your personal boundaries and balance all parts of yourself. According to Chinese Medicine Theory, the meridian and organ pair for this season are the lungs and large intestines.  While embodying stillness in a unique sequence of targeted Yin Yoga poses, breathing techniques, visualizations, you will increase your understanding of how to balance your physical wellness and energetic health in specific relation to your lungs and large intestines. Transition into this magnificent season by connecting to your inner strength and courage.

JOURNEY INTO THE SOUL - YOGA RETREAT WEEKEND - BLOOM HOLISTIC RETREAT CENTRE

  • Google Calendar ICS

As the sun sets on the last few days of a warm and radiant summer, we transition into the magnificent and bountiful season of fall.  This is an extraordinary time to take a natural pause in a blissful natural setting to establish a new connection with your inner self.

Give yourself this deeply nurturing and healing time to explore and investigate the innermost layers of who you are on a soul level. This will be an opportunity for you to calm the constant flow of emotions and thoughts, with the intention of creating a sense of greater inner balance and peace. Connect to your endless heights of innate wisdom which will raise your awareness and inner vibrations to the highest levels of consciousness and freedom.  

Each morning will begin with meditation and stillness.  Saturday morning will be sacred and silent, to heighten your inner soul connection. There will be a slow flowing movement practice after a light breakfast.  There will be an abundance of time for you to explore your lakefront home for the weekend. There are hundreds of acres of unspoiled wilderness to recharge and rejuvenate your soul and a lake for soothing swim. Later in the afternoon on Saturday, there will be a peaceful restorative yoga practice.  Experience quiet and introspective yin yoga practices each evening to prepare you for a restful sleep.

Bloom is located just north of Kington, Ontario and currently offering socially distanced retreats to vaccinated guests. 

Arrive on Friday September 16, 2022 between 3:00-5:30 pm. You can be on the road as early as noon on Sunday September 18, 2022, but you are welcome to stay and linger on the property to squeeze a little extra weekend out of your weekend. Your retreat experience includes beautiful accommodation, creative and intuitive yoga instructions, and nourishing meals, starting with dinner on your first night and ending with brunch on your final morning. 

The Staycation Tax Credit may allow you to claim 20% of your retreat expense on your 2022 taxes. Learn more here.

2019 Four Foundations of Mindfulness, Yin Yoga and Meditation Workshops
Jan
13
to Apr 14

2019 Four Foundations of Mindfulness, Yin Yoga and Meditation Workshops

I am delighted and honoured to invite you to my new series of insightful workshops, The Four Foundations of Mindfulness, Yin and Meditation Workshops. The Four Foundations of Mindfulness originate from the teachings of Buddha and were first introduced to me by my inspiring and beautiful teacher, Sarah Powers.  These teachings offered me a new way to BE PRESENT and to live my life with greater purpose and meaning.  I was  inspired to continue my own personal studies to deepen my understanding of myself and my life.  I have integrated and embodied these teachings into both my yoga and meditation practices and they have naturally rippled out throughout my entire life.
 
These mindfulness teachings will help you develop a new sense of awareness of your emotions, thoughts, sensations and mental actions. These teachings will offer you the ability to notice what is happening inside yourself and outside yourself.  Through this journey, you might be gently nudged towards developing a regular meditation practice.  If you are already meditating regularly, it might assist you with deepening your current practice.
 
We will start each workshop by arriving in a meditation seat, then transition into a specific series of yin postures. Then towards the end of each workshop, a silent meditation ending in a blissful savasana. Each workshop will be supported and assisted by the amazing and gifted, Jody Carmichael too! 
  
Dates:  

Sunday January 13      Mindfulness of The Body 

Sunday February 10     Mindfulness of Feelings

Sunday March 3           Mindfulness of Mind 

Sunday April 14            Mindfulness of Dhamma – Nature of All Things
