DESCRIPTION
After arrival and settling down having a cup of tea, we give you a guided tour through the Garden of Nâm Living. Around 16:30 with the introduction, we will get to know each other more and tell our motivation of participating in this yoga retreat. Maybe you have questions you might want to ask. As a movement therapist, I strive for body-awareness to be created and remembering the inner smile.
In a 7 day yoga retreat we dive into experience and the 4 fields of perception and becoming aware of the gates of perception. We dive deeper into knowing your own body, mind, intent and soul. How is judgement created. Do you judge yourself? What is the first thing you do when you wake up? How to practise surrender with a smile? We will all find out on this journey together.
