4 Day Ashtanga Yoga & Ayurveda Retreat in Twente

Advertisement

What?
Four days and three nights of breath work, ashtanga yoga, meditation, plenty of rest, Ayurveda and nourishing Ayurvedic meals. We will enjoy the beautiful countryside, quiet and head back into our daily lives refreshed, inspired and filled.

Where?
We will stay in the magical and quiet Oerboerderij close to de Lutte in Twente (NL). Hugged by greenery, you’ll find stillness, breathe fresh air and find comfort in the cozy place. Located about 1h 45min south when driving from Groningen.

Why?
Let’s be honest: Inhabiting a space to be fully ourselves, cultivating receptivity to deep insights and new perspectives, and accessing deep relaxation can be very challenging in our busy day-to-day lives. A retreat is an opportunity to get all of that more easily and directly. The idea is to carry what we find on retreat back into our regular lives.

A retreat is an opportunity to take space to nourish yourself exactly what you need. For some it is a deep dive into self-study. For others, it’s a time to gently unfold, rest and soak up the magic of time. One of the benefits of traveling to a particular location away from your regular routine is that we can better recognise our unconscious habit patterns, and decide whether we want to let them go or hold on to them. From a more conscious place, we return home to our families, work and life, energized and ready for what’s ahead. The idea is to come back to the world with more wholeness.
