The retreat will be hosted by Kristin Skotnes Vikjord, co-founder of Delight Yoga. For more information about Kristin please click here. The focus of this week will be on Mindful Yoga, with daily classes of Yin/Yang yoga (calm vs. dynamic), meditation and pranayama. There will also be a half day of silence. Days will start with meditation and breathing exercises, followed by a pleasant sequence of yoga flow to warm up the body. In the afternoon, after a day filled with pure vegetarian food, relaxation at the swimming pool, a walk on the beach or exploration of the surroundings, there will be guided meditation, reflective assignments, yoga philosophy and restorative yoga. At the end of the week you will have a basic knowledge of mindfulness, renewed contact with your inner being, and explored self tolerance and simply ‘being’.
