About this trip

In the heart of Southwest France, nestle among many local vineyards, Domaine de Mournac is the perfect oasis to host our “Vin & Vinyasa” Yoga Retreat. This will not only be a retreat from our daily lives, but also a cultural experience as we revitalize our bodies with daily yoga, while replenishing our souls as partake in the delicious foods & wines of the area. We will enjoy deliciously prepared meals, locally sourced, by our own personal retreat chef, who will take us on a culinary tour each day. Most meals will be vegetarian with a few exceptions for dinner. Of course there will be wine & dessert during dinner & how can we not be in France without having croissants? Therefore, fresh pastries shall be delivered to the retreat from local boulangerie on alternate mornings with our breakfast. 


We will enjoy the region’s delicacies as we visit the Sunday market, sample the delicious wines from the local vineyard, and relax the mind with an hour-long massage. We will explore the mysteries of the region as we tour Rennes Les Chateau, & discover the beauty of the surrounding area as we hike up to Mont Sec. A visit to the romantic Puilarens Castle is a must with its stunning views of the surrounding area & its impressive building of ciganes (a zig-zag of fortified paths leading up to the main gate). If you are looking for quiet relaxation, spend an afternoon of quiet time in a hammock or by the pool, or linger amidst the vines or through the woodland that surrounds the property. All activities are included in the price. It will be a magical time to remember as we revitalize our bodies with daily yoga, while replenishing our souls with delicious foods & wine surrounded among the Pyrenees Mountains.

Wonderful! I had a great time connecting with everyone during this retreat. June designed this trip to really allow our group to experience memorable aspects of yoga practice, Thai culture, sights and cuisine. The retreat was crafted to suit everyone’s level of comfort and skillset, which made for an enjoyable experience. As a beginner in practicing yoga, I felt both fulfilled in my ability to execute the various poses., and quite restored at the end of the retreat. Our dining experience at Taladya was beyond delicious with freshly prepared meals everyday that truly represented authentic Thai cuisine, with some delicious French additions. Overall, I had a great time and look forward to hearing about/participating in future yoga retreats with June.

Namaste Chiang Mai was an experience of a lifetime! The trip was meticulously planned based on research of our host June Li Lo, who experience each of the excursions prior to the retreat. Our yoga classes were tailor-made to accommodate our specific group. The retreat location was beautiful, the owners and staff were warm and welcoming. I can’t wait to see what is in store for her next retreat!
