3 Day Transformative Yoga and Acupuncture Retreat in Totnes, Devon, UK

Transformative Yoga and Acupuncture Retreat in UK
Are you feeling overwhelmed with never ending list of tasks, family obligations or that you were meant for more and something is missing in your life – this retreat is for you. Imagine being at ease in your body again, releasing the tension you have been carrying for years and learning simple, effective tools to handle life’s challenges with more calm and confidence. You will walk away with a spring in your step, standing just a little taller and clear and focused mind.

This is not the usual run of the mill yoga retreat. This retreat is a transformative container designed to change and elevate you what ever state you arrive in.

Victoria's experience and training in the multitude of healing practises, shamanic tradition, acupuncture and yoga has allowed to create this unique experience. Every activity has been carefully chosen and choreographed to create the transformative and healing result at the end of the weekend. All you have to do is show up and participate - Victoria will take care of the rest.

Still not sure if this offering is worth it? Then I can tell you this: The cost of staying the same and not changing is much higher than the investment for this retreat.

Daily restorative yoga classes (yin and nidra) with multi-style yoga practice with the group
Guided Shamanic Journey Meditation sessions
Pranayama and asanas
1 individual acupuncture session
Journaling and self reflection during quiet time
Sauna, open fire and group sharing circles
