ABOUT THE THEME FOR THIS RETREAT

In many ways, attending a yoga retreat is always a type of overall learning experience. You have time to re-learn the bliss of relaxation, set mindful goals, and rest and renew your entire sense of well-being. This retreat also provides you an opportunity to share, have fun and connect with other like-minded people. We will be using the book Light on Life by BKS Iyengar as our guiding principles. You will receive a 35 page booklet complete with personal development, stress management, transformative journaling and intention setting. More than anything you will have the FREEDOM to reconnect with the true joy of being alive! For some this is a profound experience with a powerful spiritual connection. For others it is a feeling of upliftment; others just ‘feel better’ and more positive about the future. For some it gives them the strength to face things they have been putting off for too long. You re-learn your power of choice. And the positive effects of taking a break of this nature usually last long after the retreat is over, often for months or forever. Many guests make new and positive choices and life direction changes which have a profound influence on their lives. This is the one of the advantages of participating in this amazing retreat program. Take to heart the words of John Wood from the book “Leaving Microsoft to Change the World” who writes, “If you are thinking about making some adjustments in your life my heartfelt recommendation is not to spend too much time thinking about it. Just dive in.” REDISCOVER HEALING, HARMONY & HAPPINESS TODAY! Wishing you courage to do so! Love and peace, Silvia & Jake

‎”Happiness is really freedom from unhappiness.” (Immunity to Change)

What does FREEDOM mean to you?

FREEDOM means a number of things to me such as:

• Freedom to be happier than ever before
• Freedom to try new things
• Freedom to meet new people
• Freedom to make happy failures
• Freedom to not play it all so safe
• Freedom to do the unexpected
• Freedom to just see what happens

What gets in the way of our freedom?

Primary Fears

Fears related to our willpower exist within each chakra appropriate to that chakra.

1. We fear having no authority or power of choice within our own lives, first within our tribes, then within our personal and professional relationships.
2. And then we fear having no authority with ourselves, being out of control when it comes to our responses to substances, to money, to power, to another person`s emotional control over our well being.
3. And finally, we fear surrender. The notion of letting go.

 

The Consequences of Fear

• The most costly energy consciousness comes from acting out of fear.
• Even when choices made from fear lead us to what we desire, they generally also produce unwanted side effects.
• These surprises teach us that choosing from fear transgresses our trust.
• We do not have to follow the choices others make for us.
