Your Life Your Masterpiece

Style of Yoga to be taught

Vinyasa Flow & Yin yoga
We will start each day with a dynamic Vinyasa Flow to recharge and energize ourselves body and mind.
The asana sequences will be built up step by step through the class with options given so that all abilities
and body types are taken care of.
Our evening practice will be a restorative Yin Flow. A chance to really unwind and let go. In our Yin
asana practice, the use of props (blocks and cushions) allows us to stay with asanas for longer without
discomfort or stress, giving the fascia (connective tissues) enough time to fully release.
The Yoga practice is open to all levels. You will be encouraged to take the practice at your own pace,
listening to what your body needs, and this may change from day to day. This will nurture your body and
mind, at the same time as developing strength and flexibility, both physically and mentally.

Your Rustic Retreats journey

Yoga is about reconnecting. Re-unifying. Re-balancing. Our yin and yang energy. Our inner world and
our outer world. Our body, heart, spirit and mind. The great creative emptiness and the great completeness
we all carry within. When we try to fight against reality, or to resist to some emotions, we shorten and
squeeze the inner space where creativity can develop, where deep joy can emerge.
This retreat is an invitation to re-open the fences, to re-unite the poles, opening ourselves to welcome all
kind of emotions, whatever they might be, and let them to express with awareness and compassion
throughout both yoga practices and creative artistic workshops.
The deep calm, luxurious nature and amazing food of Bagend will set the perfect conditions to reconnect.
Re-unify. Re-balance. Meet beautiful people. And have lots, lots of fun.

Your workshop programme

Natural Mandala

Polarities make the wheel of life. As our theme for this day is on exploring and balancing these seemingly
opposite energies to move into harmony and balance, there is no better place and teacher to guide us than
nature herself. Let nature be unleashed and freedom of the child within us see nature afresh, gather
treasures and create our own wheel of life/ Mandala’s.

Acro - Yoga

Acro-yoga is a recreational -but yet physical- practice that combines yoga and acrobatics. Here you will
find a bit of circus, dance, living sculpture, and of course yoga, always safely guided by an experienced
teacher. It’s amazing what we can create with our bodies !

Meet the creator within you

Between two amazing veggie meals, a dive in the pool and a nap under the lemon tree, what about giving
yourself a space for enjoying unbounded creativity ? Soft music and big pieces of paper, shadow or sun or
a bit of both, pencils and paint brushes, forget about everything and let the flow to be.

From the life I dream to the life I create

Don’t think it too much. Let spontaneity do the job. What if there were no obstacles at all to the life of
your dreams ? More than asking our mind, here we will dive into body sensations, letting them to guide
us through what really makes sens to us. Of course real life shows limitations regarding to our ideal one.
But listening to our body, which is the vessel for our intuition, will help us to progressively create the
closest version of that dream. Or maybe the dream itself ?

Travelling through shamanic drums

Continuing our journey through intuition and creativity, in this workshop we will explore the experience
of consciously being into another state of consciousness. Shamanism is as old as the existence of the
Human being on Earth, and there was a time when our ancestors used it as their main way to guide
themselves through Life. Today scientific researches all around the world show how sound induced trance
can help our brain and body to develop specific capacities and lead to some new ways towards a process
of healing. Let’s set an intention to our journey, and see where it brings us. We may be positively
surprised.
