GATHER
THE DAY RETREAT
SUNDAY 29TH JANUARY 2023
10am TO 4pm
GATHER is an opportunity for us to come together and share in practices that nourish and uplift us; yoga, meditation, breaking bread and meaningful connection.
Our day will be anchored in practices that nourish our hearts.
Arrival is from 10am where you will start your day settling in and enjoying some tea. The practices get underway at 10.30 - a 2 hour asana practice followed by a light lunch (vegan and gluten free will be catered for). Then in the afternoon we will dive into some rich yoga philosophy followed by a special session of kirtan lead by the very wonderful Holly Hood. Holly is an experienced yoga teacher who studied Kirtan at length under Nikki Slade. Kirtan is a voice meditation practice. It is an aspect of bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion.
"meditate on me with single-hearted devotion"
