Experience the empowerment of Soulful Calibration
The Smarana Yoga Retreat is an intensive yoga immersion that is a guided journey through sensory experience to reunite your inner and outer worlds. This is the perfect opportunity in a perfect setting to renew the soulful inspiration that drives our most cherished desires and deep inner purpose. Our Smarana Yoga Immersion is a purposely curated “yoga and meditation intensive” for those with the desire to return to their truest nature.
We will take you on a deep dive, completely absorbed, into yoga, meditation and self reflection with daily morning and afternoon Yoga and meditation sessions, lunchtime Yoga Nidra, journalling, writing exercises, and nature walks, all while being sequestered in the rural beauty of Bali’s magical landscapes.
Everett Newell, the founder of Zuna Yoga® will lead you through this unforgettable experience to discover the soulful delight of self remembrance. This is a wellness experience that is sure to illuminate insightful realizations to deepen your understanding of yourself and reconnect to that inner compass guiding your life’s journey.
This is not a teacher training but for registered Yoga Alliance teachers YACEP credits are available.
Smarana {sanskrit}:
to remember; self remembrance
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Everyday before lunch we will do a short movement session and then enjoy a deliciously revitalizing and soul centering Yoga Nidra delight. This is a great midday practice to energize and prepare for our lunch gathering and afternoon excitement.
Creative writing exercises can be a powerful gateway to uncovering insights about life direction, purpose, and soulful intentions. These practices invite you to explore the depths of your inner world through free-flowing thoughts, evocative prompts, and imaginative storytelling.
They help bypass the analytical mind, tapping into your intuition and core values uncovering hidden desires, clarifying your priorities and illuminating a path toward greater meaning and life direction.
Nature walks will be a guided tour through the lush jungle and serene rice field terraces conveniently located adjacent to Saridevi. The walks will be guided by a local with many years experience with the wildlife and botanical delights awaiting your discovery.
In the evenings you’ll enjoy the deeply soul nourishing and rejuvenation of our yin style class we call Nourish®.
This will be followed by a meditation to experience the beauty and power of your sensitivity calibrated to plug in to the vibration of life.
The Smarana Yoga and Meditation Immersion begins with a sunrise practice, the most powerful time of day to set your intention and experience the power of a finely tuned Zuna Yoga® practice that will certainly include a smartly guided theme, asana and meditation.
Following your morning yoga and meditation practice, savor a nutritious breakfast in quiet contemplation. We’ll then meet for morning activities that could be a lecture, discussion, creative writing or a nature walk depending on weather and theme of the day.
Students break for lunch and rest, then meet again in the afternoon for workshops, practicums or other special events along with a light fruit snack around 4pm. Our day is completed with a nicely satisfying Nourish® class and meditation.
