Each season brings its unique energies, set of organs and meridians, and areas of focus. We run a three day non-residential cleanse or reset process every season to bring you into alignment with all these changing elements.
It’s a special time of personal reflection, a chance to cleanse and nourish your body with lovingly prepared seasonal food. Two therapeutic yoga classes combine with other powerful practices each day all working synergistically to bring great change to your body and mind in a beautiful environment that supports health, vitality and wellness on all levels. Gift yourself these life changing experiences to keep your wellness on track when the rigours of life and your overburdened schedule pull you askew.
Saturday October 5th – Monday October 7th
Detox & shed the stagnancy of winter and align your mind & body with fresh budding energies of spring. Spring is a time of new beginnings and visions. A time to rise early with the sun, shake off the stagnancy of winter, cleanse, refresh and renew your body and mind.
Spring is the perfect time to look at new ways of eating and moving, to start new things, clean and clear your body and mind, and increase activity levels. Spring yoga focusses on lengthening and opening the sides, as well as twisting and bringing movement into the joints. We increase flexibility and adaptability, creating a feeling of grace and lightness.
Our focus in spring is the Wood Element. It governs the liver and gallbladder and their associated meridians and body systems, giving us the opportunity to access, strengthen and heal all these areas. In spring we can create improvements in:
OPTIONAL COLD DIP - Meet early for a jiggle jog down to a bush pool, skin brush and cold dip to stimulate the liver, colon and skin for maximum cleansing.
Back to the yoga studio for an hour of therapeutic meridian based yoga. Stay for miso and congee or take away. Leave with a delicious, organic, vegan lunchbox.
Another therapeutic yoga class, followed by a light seasonal dinner. Finishing with a hot ginger compress to nurture your body and bring healing relief to any aches.
