Yoga Retreat ( EVENT)

By Kirsty May

1. What is the event about?

Yoga Retreat in Postash Barns, Suffolk.  20th-23rd February, 2015.

My aim of this retreat is for you to be healed, restored, relaxed and rejuvenated. We will connect back with nature. 

I will try to help you to come back to yourself, remember who you are, love yourself and feel grounded and present. By clearing blockages, rebalancing your mind, body....and spirit, I believe you will feel happier, more focused in your life and ready to face any challenge. I will do my best help you feel peace in your mind and love and happiness in your heart. I will try to help you manifest what you really want in life!

The Hatha Yoga class is for beginners and intermediate Yogis; I can vary the postures to suit all abilities. The style is fun and creative, yet focused and still challenging.


The Hatha flows and also has many influences from various disciplines and teachers. Yoga stretches, strengthens, tones, helps to align, and improves the health of the
entire body. My varied mix of guided meditations will help you in different areas of your life and help you to calm the mind and bring you into the present. 

We will do Pranayama, morning and evening, which will be amazingly beneficial to your mind and body. Pranayama (breath control) stimulates and brings oxygen to every tissue in the body, is said to remove all diseases, and destroys negative thought patterns, among many other benefits.
