SUMMARY:Bali Retreat – Yoga in Real Life
DESCRIPTION:I use the phrase yoga in real life\, to describe how the teachings of yoga can guide us in how to live\, be and engage in the world. \nYoga is more than a physical practice that begins and ends on an expensive yoga mat. \nIt is a way of life. \nThis six-night retreat is an opportunity for you to deepen your understanding of yoga and how it relates to you and your place in the world. \nTogether we will physically practice yoga in accessible and adaptable ways\, as well as inquire gently into yoga’s philosophical ethical foundations. \nYou will have time and space to rest in solitude or in the company of others whilst staying with a local Balinese artist and his family. \nACCOMODATION\nLocated on the edge of rice fields in a pedestrian only area of Penestanan\, Santra Putra is located on the outskirts of Ubud\, away from the hustle and bustle\, with easy access to local warungs (restaurants) and a walk or taxi ride into town. \nBe surrounded by nature\, hosted in comfort and immersed in local custom as you observe daily offerings performed by our Balinese host family and staff. You will have a spacious fan cooled deluxe queen room to yourself\, complete with private verandah\, kitchenette and seating area for rest and reflection. Your private ensuite bathroom is semi outdoor embracing the natural beauty of tropical Bali. \nWHATS INCLUDED\n\n6 nights’ accommodation in a spacious\, queen room with ensuite\, veranda and kitchenette\nDaily complimentary breakfast\nAirport arrival transfer\nWelcome Purification (Melukat) ceremony\nx 2 dinners incl. transport\nAll teachings – morning and afternoon practices and discussion\nBalinese dance performance at Ubud Water Palace incl. transport.\nGuest teacher to share a Mudra Pranala class (Indigenous Balinese healing art focussing on balancing the alignment of energy) and ancient philosophy behind this Balinese Mudra.\n\nSAMPLE DAILY PROGRAM\n7.00 am   Pause and meditation \n7.30 am   Asana and embodiment \n9.00 am   Breakfast \nFREE TIME \n3:00 pm   Restoratives\, Yoga Nidra\, Pranayama\, Discussion \n5.00 pm   Finish \nABOUT YOUR TEACHER\nNicole is yoga teacher\, Social Worker and parent who has been practicing yoga for over 25 years.
