Yoga / Detox

The yoga / detox holiday can be either an introduction to yoga for you, or if already experienced you can use these five days to deepen your own practice. We will adjust the level of instruction to suit each individual. The yoga groups are kept small.

On a daily basis you will have two meditation sessions and two yoga classes including asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing exercises) and relaxation techniques. You will be served breakfast, a light lunch and dinner, all based on simple, but pure, healthy, vegetarian yoga food

To help the detoxing process of your body, we use special detox food and natural supplements to help eliminating life time accumulated toxins. Yoga has a very detoxing effect on the organs anyway, but on this program we will concentrate on special detox poses

There are so many new diseases because there are so many new toxins (heavy metals, pesticides, preservatives electro smog, and other toxins we are abusing our body with). Detoxing is and essential tool to find back to health and happiness.
