Yoga as a tool for Grounding – Rebalance – Recharge
Find tools for deep restoration and emotional regulation
Do you long to reconnect within? The weekend is a process to peel off layers of tension and to reconnect with your innermost self. Spring time invites us to grow roots, within us and in nature, to find courage and strength to choose which direction you want to evolve in. Yoga is about honest compassionate introspection, about being an active creator of your own life. We will call in your Sankalpa; your intention and heartfelt prayer. The heart is the emperor of our emotions and creating a sankalpa means to be in touch with that which is truly important.
DESCRIPTION
The intention of this immersion is to slow down and feel what is present within. From there we become empowered to create our own life purpose. We will practice different styles of slow, nourishing yoga, like Yin and Restorative, Qigong, Pranayama, meditations and various tools for self development. Friday night we treat ourselves to a nourishing spa evening!

Petra Pārvatī Kalla is an C-IAYT yoga therapist and physiotherapist. Her clinical work focuses on mainly mental health, stress related illness and long term pain syndromes. She is interested in guiding people to a more compassionate and informed connection to their body-mind. In her integrative work with Sacred spine yoga therapy, she shares the full palette of yogic practices infused with myofascial release techniques, modern self-compassion based psychology, ancient wisdom teachings of the east as well elements from qigong. By being interested in the subtle, small and slow – we reach deep within. Listening to the poetic language of our bodies, we honor and heal, rather than discipline and override our emotional and physiological shifts. The hope is to support people to find the inner will and the tools they need to take care of themselves from the heart.
