The Yoga weekend retreat takes place in Burghof Stauf, amidst wonderful nature in the heart of Palatinate. You can enjoy the yoga practices in the lightflooded 120qm yoga hall wonderfully overlooking the Palatinate Forest. In warm seasons the Burgberg, a true powerhouse in the immediate vicinity of the retreat surrounded by green meadows and trees invites to yoga unter the vast sky while in colder seasons the surrounding forest invites to meditative walks. The morning starts with a guided meditation followed by breathing, physical and relaxation practices. After brunch you have time for your personal relaxation or enjoy optional activities such as hiking or resting. In the afternoon there will be a holistic yoga practice and an early dinner. In the evening we will strengthen our soul, mind and body with meditation, japa meditation, bhakti yoga, kirtan, yoga nidra or nada yoga. Allow the gentle forces and positive vibrations to unfold the potential that lies within you. Transform unwanted patterns of thinking or acting into the positive and let go of habits that prevent you from feeling your own inner radiance.
