This 10 day retreat provides the perfect opportunity to refresh your health within a fully guided yoga, meditation & mantra chanting program.
Navaratri is a traditional celebration to appreciate the turning of the seasons. The symbols, stories & mantra chanting create a powerful space within which to reflect on our personal changes, challenges & gifts. This 10 day retreat includes the opportunity to experience the power & beauty of Nature through silent bushwalks along the beach trails & in the National Parks of remote Flinders Island, Tasmania, Australia.
Sw. Yogakanti is a respected Yogi & scholar; including an in depth study of the life & works of Adi Shankaracharya; one of the cornerstones of the yogic tradition & a key proponent of Adwaita Vedanta; the Yoga of Knowledge/Gyana. These profound insights will be complemented by the sweetness & emotional intelligence embodied in the Ramacharitamanas.
Sw. Yogakanti will also include discussions & meditations from her recent book Life & Death ~ Full Circle. This book explores the journey through life & preparation for the onward journey, from the perspective of many different traditions.
Her vast experience, knowledge and insight will be a beautiful gift woven into the fabric of the retreat program.
Simplicity by the Sea Retreat Studio is nestled into a sunny sheltered spot in the township of Killiecrankie, Northern Flinders Island in Bass Strait. It offers the opportunity to spend time in a yogic environment near the ocean & mountains, building health & resilience as well as insight & joy
There are wonderful views of the sunrise over the soft rolling hills, and a short walk around the corner to the beach & views across the bay to Mt Killiecrankie.
