10 Reasons You Need A Yoga Retreat

9/13/2016

Life is hard, and you deserve a break! The key to happiness is in your own hands, take a chance now and book a Yoga Retreat. Set aside what is holding you back and find a way to make it happen. There are always a million reasons and excuses in our heads telling us not to do things, I say – Just do it! You will not regret it. Here are 10 reasons to back me up! ;)

1. Meet Like Minded Individuals –
There is something magical about being Immersed in a group of like-minded people. You feed off of each other’s energy and vibes. You learn things from each other simply by listening to each other. You get to talk about things for hours on end that you are passionate about, and likely you have someone listening who shares your passion or at least understands it. Being with people who share your passions helps allow you to open yourself and your mind and to truly embrace your authentic self.

2. Eat well without having to do any work –
Really… need I say more??!!
3. Relax and destress –
This is a pretty obvious benefit! What a retreat is all about. Simply time away to enjoy.
4. Take your yoga to the next level –
Whether you are a brand new yogi or an experienced yoga teacher you are bound to learn something new on a retreat. In addition to the physical practice of yoga a retreat is about living your yoga, though showing compassion for others, for nature, and for yourself. It is a chance to truly embrace yoga in every movement of your day, and boy does it feel great!
5. Get to travel to a place you may have not otherwise gone –
Going somewhere new is good for the body and soul! A retreat is often the chance to see somewhere beautiful! Let’s be honest, who doesn’t want to do some traveling?!

6. Try new things – expand your knowledge-
It’s always fun to learn new things, to give new things a chance. It may be a new type of yoga or meditation, a new food, or a new activity - Retreats are full of opportunities to try new things.
7. Meditate – For real -
Guided meditation. Quiet time. Time actually set aside for meditation – ahhhhhhh YES.

8. New perspectives-
Being with new people and learning and sharing stories is bound to give you new perspectives on life. Eating new foods, seeing new places, doing new things. You will leave a changed person – For the better, of course!
9. Leave with an appreciation for home –
After being away from home for a while it’s always nice to go home and rest your head on your own pillow. You will leave a yoga retreat incredibly refreshed.
10. It is an investment in yourself –
A yoga retreat is an investment in yourself and while it’s sometimes hard to allow yourself to make an investment in yourself, you deserve it. Experiences are better than things – A yoga retreat will be something you will always remember.
