Program

Living Your Meditation Program

‘Living Your Meditation’ retreat helps bring yoga and meditation into your daily life so that there is no separation between your inner and outer life.

What we help you discover is a state of watchfulness – a natural state that allows you to perceive all happenings, all thoughts, all feelings, all emotions, all sensations without judgment and find a state that is relaxed and completely impartial.

You will leave the retreat refreshed, replenished and relaxed and with the discovery of Living Your Meditation.
