Details of this retreat
The Radically Balanced Yogi is a weekend immersion designed to help you reconnect with the deeper intelligence of your body, breath, mind, and heart—so you can experience greater clarity, peace, and vitality from within.
Rooted in the ancient yogic model of the Koshas (the five layers of the self), this workshop will guide you through an integrative approach to healing and balance.
In this workshop, you will:
Discover the 5 layers of the self (Koshas) that make up the human experience.
Explore how imbalances in different aspects of your being show up, and identify which aspects of yourself are out of alignment.
Practice simple, powerful techniques—including movement, breathwork, meditation, and self-inquiry—to restore inner balance.
Learn how to customize a yoga practice and leave with a personalized understanding of how to move toward wholeness in your daily life.
Whether you’re new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, you’ll leave with practical tools and a deeper sense of what it means to live as a radically balanced yogi.
Testimonials:
Brandt does such an awesome job at presenting material on a difficult topic like trauma and addiction that doesn't get us lost in the narratives, but grounds us in the ways we can view complex issues like trauma and addiction from a doshic and koshic lens. I really appreciate how he makes space for us to experience the practices, then delve into the education behind it with so much room for discussion and questions, while we all share space. -Alex
The clarity, wisdom, and accessibility of Brandt's teaching is empowering and inspiring. Thank you!" —Laurie
Brandt was organized and delivered the weekend in a concise manner that allowed us to simulate the information and put it into practice. It was an amazing workshop! I wish I could have stayed on for the week-long retreat. -Gray Carr Griffin
