Dear You,

It’s been a while since I last offered a retreat at beautiful Bodhi Bhavan and I’m very happy to return to our retreat home next year. 

My last 2-3 years have been a beautiful, yet intense “growing up”. It seems I am not the only one and something is happening at the collective level. It has been an important, but also tiring transition.

I longed for a sanctuary, where I could go back to what is essential, tend to my whole being and begin anew. So I have planned this retreat accordingly. I designed it as a space to truly rest, refill our cup, rebalance our hormones, regulate and nourish our whole system. I’ve dreamt it as a new beginning - a chapter yet to be written. A moment of simplicity, of self-care and togetherness. A week where we don’t have to think about anything - it is all planned and prepared for us to just be, unmasked, unpolished, natural.

A sweet landing after the storm. 

A kind embrace that so many of us need right now.

I’ve changed a lot since I last offered it. My spiritual facade kind of fell apart and I’ve become somewhat earthy, deliberate, quiet. My practice and teaching of yoga deepened, I gained a lot of experience, yet it became very unceremonial, funny and stripped to the bone. I’ve come to trust the practice to do the work - all we have to do is show up. 

I’ve come to see that not much more is needed. In the silence and simplicity, as the system unwinds, our wisdom and clarity come back on its own. We touch something else. We go back to where we never left.

If it is time for you to stop and come back to yourself, please welcome. It will be beautiful. If you want to find out more about the program, prices, set up and myself, here it is. I would love to have you with us.
