RECHARGE YOUR BODY-MIND INTEGRATION

Join Sarah Powers and Ty Powers, founders of the Insight Yoga Institute, as they share their unique approach to mindfulness, yoga, and psychological inquiry. 

This nourishing weekend practice retreat—designed to develop and recharge your body-mind integration—includes many sessions of meditation coupled with yin and yang yoga, alone time for reflection, as well as partner inquiry sessions for deepening your psychological insights.  

• Mindfulness is an attitude we adopt in which we let go of all motivations to manipulate the moment and develop the capacity to observe without willful interference. 
• Yoga is a set of behaviors that encourages a holistic experience of the body, heart, and mind—a process of fully inhabiting ourselves. 
• Psychological inquiry, in receptive states of body-mind awareness, allows us to capture and refine insights into ourselves and our relationships. 

When you include all three elements (mindfulness, yoga, and psychological inquiry) in your practice on a regular basis, you learn to more easily come home to your direct experience in a creative and fresh way. 

Return home with a clarity of mind and ease of being that leaves you feeling refreshed and inwardly connected.

NOTE A prior understanding of both yin yoga and mindfulness meditation is recommended. Participants are encouraged to have a minimum of one year of yoga experience. This retreat will be held in social silence.
