AYP Retreat on Koh Phangan, Thailand
28th December 2019 to 4th January 2020
The Venue
The retreat will take place at the One Yoga Retreat Centre on Koh Phangan Island in Thailand. The resort is a beautiful yoga retreat centre on the North West of the island.
Practices will include asanas, Deep Meditation, Spinal Breathing Pranayama and Samyama as well as other yoga practices.
The Yoga
- Deep Meditation
- Spinal Breathing Pranayama
- Samyama
- Mudras and bhandas
- Asana
- Self inquiry
The focus of the retreat will be on the cultivation of inner silence through meditation, Self-inquiry practice (Jnana Yoga) and the cultivation of the witness. We will also be looking at the process of purification of the subtle energy channels produced by pranayama.
There will be asana, pranayama and meditation sessions every morning and afternoon, and time for satsang (the philosophy of yoga) in the evenings.
There will also be free time each day for swimming, snorkelling, sun bathing and exploring the island.
None of the yoga or meditation sessions will be compulsory, so everyone can take the retreat at their own pace. All instruction and teachings will be given in English.
