Testimonial:
Working with paula has been one of the most grounding and healing experiences of my life. The Viniyoga sessions have become a safe and sacred space for me — a place where I can breathe deeply, let go, and reconnect with myself. There is something incredibly special about how paula holds space with warmth, patience, and a quiet strength that invites trust. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, more at peace, and reminded of what truly matters.

A Luxury Retreat at The Almanage with Paula O’ Hanlon
The sanskrit (the language of yoga) word Bhávana can be translated into many different words such as; an idea, a theme, a focus, a feeling. The root of this word is bhú which means to become. So essentially bhávana is an instrument of becoming.
Over this three day Viniyoga retreat we will experience and inhabit our bodies and minds through attentive ásana, (yoga practice), gentle pránáyáma (breathing practices of yoga) and vedic chanting, allowing us to observe and discover ourselves in a new way and therefore a new way of being… a transformation.
