RETREATS
Mindful Living Retreat: Through Yoga and Wine Appreciation
When we go on a retreat, we leave behind the busyness of our everyday lives and press the pause button, just for a few days, and reconnect back to who we really are. This is an invitation to spend time nourishing your body and soul by practising mindfulness – cultivating awareness through all of the senses and discovering a reverence for all aspects of our lives.
In this era of technology where one click, instagram and fast food are the norm, where we cram more activities into every day, where we multi-task like mad and still feel like we can’t get it all done, “not enough TIME” has become a common mantra.
Over the long weekend we will practise reconnection with our bodies, minds and souls and a reverence for all aspects of our lives through mindful engagement of all our senses.
We will celebrate our bodies through yoga practice, nourish ourselves with breath and hearty, delicious food, and cultivate heightened awareness of senses through mindful wine tasting practices. All in the tranquil surroundings of the Maison 10 in the south of France.
The six-day retreat is about:
- Time for yourself
- Time to notice
- Time to nourish
- Time for your yoga practice
- Time to appreciate being human
- Time to be in nature
- Time to breathe
- Time to connect to other souls on a deeper level
- Taking one thing at a time
We will practise yoga and breathing exercises daily and explore the concept of mindful wine tasting (‘winefulness’) as a means of developing a greater awareness through all our senses, and how we can apply this awareness throughout our daily lives. There will be plenty of time to explore the area, to relax by the pool, and simply to exist in natures’ surroundings.
This retreat is designed to nourish your body, mind, and soul while celebrating everything that makes us human.
Fiona and James met and became friends whilst ‘studying’ and practising mindfulness at the Oxford Mindfulness Centre in 2015, and remain part of a group of friends that meet every month to ‘sit’ together (and eat cake!).
Our retreats are held in beautiful locations where you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in nature.
Our next retreat is on the horizon…
Check back soon, as we’ll be offering you the opportunity to register your interest in future workshops and retreats with Mack Yoga and friends.
