Retreats with James Boag

A weekend of yoga and The Sun:

Join us in the stunning and serene setting of Ampleforth Abbey as we dive into rich, practical teachings of yoga through the lens of the Sun, one of the great archetypes in the yoga tradition.

What will we learn/experience?

• how we can work with the foundational principles of yoga to cultivate harmony, efficiency and fulfilment in all aspects of our lives
• how we can bring the innate technologies of haṭha yoga into broad spectrum movement and all aspects of our life so they can support skilful and satisfying action, and greater ease and efficiency through the challenges of life
• how we can work simply with the accessible yet powerful practices of kirtan, sound and song, for healing and restoration, to harmonise our vibration, cleanse the field of our being, and help energy flow through all parts of ourselves

Come and share in this weekend retreat to gain a holistic and multi-layered understanding of Sūrya Namaskāra as an emblem of the whole course of yoga practice, and how we can make our work with sun salutations and related yoga techniques more powerful, nourishing and efficient.
