Cheapest Yoga Retreat Ever!

Friday March 16 - Sunday March 18

$108 per person

Studio de la Luz

Truth or Consequences, NM

This is going to be a small, cozy retreat to the beloved healing hot springs of T or C!  We can only take 10 of you so sign up early.  The cost of the retreat includes 4 yoga classes, 3 meditation sessions, an evening chakra meditation and a group soak at Riverbend on Sunday before we leave.  Book your rooms soon.  Weekends fill up quickly in T or C.

Our focus for the weekend is the windy, windy nature of change.  The winds inside and the winds outside are catalysts for change.  Our asana, pranayama and meditation practices will help us embrace the winds of change in order to move forward with strength and clarity while avoiding the common imbalances of the season such as insomnia, dry skin, irregular digestion, anxiety and irritability.  Dig in family, this is going to be a rejuvenating and inspiring weekend.

Friday:

6pm - Yoga: Rooting Down - landing solidly on two feet and bowing down to the weekend ahead.

7:45pm - A bliss-inducing chakra meditation before bed

Saturday:

9:30am: Meditation

Vata Balancing Workshop

1 - 4pm

$25

Spring is right around the corner bringing with it new growth, creativity and change.  The strong, powerful winds are part of the dynamic, changing nature of the Spring season but they are not always welcomed with open arms.  If the chilly New Mexico winds leave you feeling irritable, anxious and unable to sleep your own internal winds may be a little off kilter.

Through asana, pranayama and Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle techniques this workshop will give you lots of yoga-style tools to weather the change of the seasons with strength and grace.

An Ayurvedic Spring Cleanse

lead by Natalie South & Lian Reed

Cost: $140

Once we have 10 people enrolled the price drops to $108 for everyone! So grab a friend and join us.

Cleansing is a fantastic way to realign body, mind and spirit and reconnect to your practice, your health and yourself. This 4-week cleanse will focus on balancing the doshas through diet, asana, pranayama and meditation. Each participant will be given a basic Ayurvedic diet that can be customized to address their particular imbalances. Ayurvedic lifestyle tips will also be given to assist in bringing about and maintaining physical, mental and emotional balance for each person.

Two yoga classes (Tuesdays at 6:45am and Saturdays at 11am) will be offered every week for the duration of the cleanse. The classes will be slow, gentle, breath-focused classes aimed at grounding, soothing and warming the body to alleviate any Vata imbalance that may be present. Since caffeine is not in the plan you can think of these classes as your month-long caffeine substitute!

We will also meet on Friday evenings from 7 to 9pm for Ayruvedic discussions, restorative yoga, pranayama and meditation.

Full Schedule w/dates:

Friday March 9th; 7 - 9pm: Get acquainted, dosha quizzes, diet handouts and meditation
