Moon Cycle Yoga Nidra ONLINE
These practices of Yoga Nidra (meaning Yoga sleep) give us deep rest, time to just be, to absorb and benefit from the moon cycle energies as they shift and change.
In Ayurveda it is recommended that we clean in order to prevent build up of ama (toxins) in the body and mind, this helps to prevent disease. This will be a 3 week online simple process.
During this one day retreat you will be encouraged to rest, restore and let go. Using yin yoga, restorative restful breath work, yoga nidra, massage and sound this day is designed to nourish and nurture you as the seasons shift and change.
Ayurveda uses a system of ‘doshas’ or constitutional types. The most common imbalance is the Vata dosha. Vata tends to be ungrounded when imbalanced and shows up as anxiety, insomnia, IBS, dryness and other physical and emotional issues. Learn more about Vata and how we can use Ayurveda to rebalance ourselves and prevent disease.
In this circle space all women are goddesses. We will explore what this means for us individually and collectively as we share and support one another throughout this half day journey. Practices will include feminine movement, deep restful Yoga Nidra, Mudra and Mantra.
At the heart of Ayurveda is the food we eat. What we put into our body and the way in which this is done creates our body tissues and cells, produces our energy, can change our mood and can either create health or disease.
This day will focus specifically on everyday foods and how to make them delicious and nutritious, with a specific focus on bread.
Diwali is a festival which symbolises the victory of light over darkness and good over evil, marked by lighting lamps, decorating homes, feasting, and exchanging gifts. This morning practice will embrace these principles and gift you a bag of goodies to take away and celebrate at home.
“I had planned this wonderful trip to India as my first step into retirement, and it was the perfect decision. The retreat is well organised by Virginia Compton with all your needs catered for. I had planned to extend my visit to Kerala by two weeks to explore a bit more of the area. Shibu Krishna was on hand during my stay at the retreat to help me plan my onward journey. He arranged transport and booked hotels for me at each place I visited. He made the process seamless and absolutely perfect. Without a doubt, I would recommend this retreat in India, and with the guaranteed sunshine, wonderful scenery and kind gentle people – Kerala will be the place I visit again.” Sandy 2020

From online courses, one day retreats in the UK, to two week retreats in Kerala, South India.
Step away from ordinary everyday life for a while, and let us support and nourish you in whatever way you need.
Having never been to India and travelling on my own, I could not ask for more helpful, kind, knowledgeable and supportive people. The retreat is a true world away and an oasis of tranquillity and peace. A wonderful place to reset and offers a rich variety of ways to realign your body, mind and health. I could not recommend it enough.

“Virginia is amazingly committed and dedicated to every individual under her care. I attended an ayurveda cleansing retreat organised by her in November 2022. Unusually, she arranged to meet all the participants prior to the retreat and sent questionnaires for us to complete so she knew much about us before the event. Her personal engagement with each of us meant we trusted her. She provided specific treatment and massages for each of us. Her high level of expertise combined with her interest in each person is truly commendable.”
