What does Love really mean?

From a Buddhist perspective, Love is the unconditional wish for happiness and well-being. How do we love ourselves and our bodies in this way? What if these very bodies are an expression of love itself? How can we embody it, live it and be it? This is what we will explore through yin-yang yoga and other movement practices, meditation and social silence.

Yin yoga is a deep, quiet and passive practice while the yang style is gently flowing with a slow and therapeutic approach. Shake Your Soul® is a playful dance-based program. Teachings from various traditions and sources along with mindfulness activities, journaling and meditation will enhance the movement practices, while the silence provides a powerful and transformative container.

All elements of this retreat are designed to support and embody meditation practice. As the Buddha taught, there are 4 positions in which we can meditate: sitting, lying, standing and walking

This retreat is all inclusive of room, meals, teachings, teacher fee, yoga & dance supplies and retreat materials. No teacher dana is necessary.
