Just so you can allow yourself to be spontaneous with your adventures, I searched and found this charming, cozy, urban spot in Barcelona “Yoga Weeks” to host my next Mediterranean retreat. Adventure is refreshing! Join me in this gorgeous city for a spiritual adventure this spring!
While immersing yourself in transformational yoga and meditation practice, you will also get to enhance your knowledge about the latest scientific researches on nutrition that will help you evaluate your dietary habits. Each morning we will begin our day with practicing energizing and strengthening asana practice with a twist that will boost your metabolism, then will explore the Spanish culture all day, return to our beautiful venue to restore energy and take a contemplative intermission in the evenings before we get back out to join the vibrant city again.
The focus of our practice will be to enhance the quality of life. When we clean up what is on the way of our advancement as an individual a new path opens up to the field of possibilities that extends beyond our desires. I developed “Contemplative Intermission” to help you help yourself in reaching this field of possibilities for enhancement. Taking a Contemplative Intermission everyday, you will be able to see yourself clearly, understand the dynamics of your life, your intentions, and your actions better. Together we will work on increasing our level of consciousness on mind, body, and emotions.
During this retreat you will be encouraged to go beyond your expectations and surprise yourself, and experience what it means to do your best.
