Your Silent Retreat

Silence will be observed for the last week of the Level 2 YTT

Last week’s schedule (2017) –

In today’s world, we are continuously bombarded and stimulated by worldly things; TV, music, internet, phone and so on. We fill every minute of our day, rarely taking any time away from it all – to evaluate what we need – to live a healthier more peaceful life. The gift of Silence is an opportunity to see clearly beyond that busyness, beyond that everyday noise that create stress & imbalances for us. In silence, we hear the unspoken and we feel the unseen.

The last week of this training is designed to help you take an intense journey that is designed to hasten your spiritual journey and understanding of the Self. To be able to deliver the true message of Yoga, we need to drop all sense of individual desires, misunderstandings and clutter in order to better serve ourselves, and others.

After your application is complete and you have been accepted onto the Level 2 Training, and after you have transferred your holding deposit, your on-site twin share accommodation booking will be secured.
