Description of course

Special Womens Retreat of Yoga, Love and Joy

Make your heart sing!

This week provides a lovely and nurturing space with time to let go of everyday commitments and tune into your self.

We develop awareness of body and mind through gentle yet sometimes challenging yoga, breathing excerises, sitting meditation and Yoga Nidra, allowing a natural balance to emerge.

This week is suitable for all levels, of previous or no previous experience of yoga, and aims to relax, centre and energize you.

In the company of women we pay special attention to our cyclical nature and the heart, opening up an awareness of the pathways to our Divine Nature.

There will be plenty of outdoor activites in the Burren and surrounding areas.

And the usual amazing vegetarian meals with Paddi the chef.

Instructors
Veronica Larsson is from Sweden originally and has studied with many teachers in various countries.

She has many years of intensive and extensive practice and training, including the Iyengar Introductory Teacher Certificate, 5 years of studying, training and apprenticing with Graeme and Leonie Northfield, Sumarah meditation with Laura Romano and Vipassana meditation.

Veronica is Yoga Alliance E-RYT 500, (experienced registered yoga teacher, 500 hrs) their higest qualification, and also a yoga teacher trainer, and training Journeywork therapist.



Her focus is on developing awareness, self-knowledge and innner balance through the practice of the ancient science of Yoga.

The practice she see's as a transformative tool of working with the body and mind, and not a dogma or set of beliefs.



Our practice is a process, that can help to bring about awarenss and healing on many levels.



An honest yoga practice may help us hear the voice of our own heart. 'We practice so that we can tune in, remember, and be aware of who and what we truly are'.

Nice email sent by Janette from Veronica's Ashtanga's course July 2006

Hi Dave,
Just wanted to let you know that i arrived home safely.
It was the most wonderful feeling to see my husband and children again. Raphael said that my eyes were shining and Charlie my 16 year old told me that i had a wonderful glow!
I have been fixing things in the garden and a couple of hours ago we decided to have a yoga session so Raphael, myself, Tiger and Aden were all in the garden doing yoga, chanting and omming and it was hysterical and wonderful at the same time.
It brought tears to my eyes remembering how much Veronica taught me. Thank you thank you thank you for a wonderful week and i will e-mail you soon with my thoughts on my past week as promised.
Take care my friend and be well.
The karma CD is amazing! But i still want that Indian music cause it's in my head and it reminds me of my wonderful friends!
Send my love to Veronica.
XXXXXXXXXXXXX Janette.
