Anata - This abstracted mixed media artwork portrays the Yogic hand mudra for Anahata, the heart chakra. Beneath the hand mudra is a turquoise lotus flower embellished with love, peace and joy, adding to the composition. Lotus flowers are symbolic of rising from the mud of life towards purity, transformation, and enlightenment. In the background is a turquoise and ochre mandala.

Early MorningYoga & Qigong

yoga

During the retreat there will be early morning Yoga classes taught, which will be a therapeutic style of gentle Hatha Yoga to relieve stress, gain flexibility, heal the body, or perhaps to improve your energy. You can use Yoga for all these purposes but apart from the purely physical effects Yoga is also designed to help you create a unique inner journey of self-development allowing your Divine inner beauty to shine.

qigong

There will also be Qigong sessions either by themselves or mixed with gentle yoga. The invisible energy surrounding us is the breath of life to all beings and all of nature—that of air, sunlight, and water. Cultivation of Chi is deeply rooted in nature, the Earth, and the universe surrounding us. When you purposely cultivate and enhance your Chi or Prana you are accessing and circulating healing energy throughout your mind, body and spirit. In this way you can reclaim your energy, heal from dis-ease, and move towards self-transformation.

Lisa said …..I want to thank you Maia for such an enjoyable & rewarding experience. My initial feelings of apprehension soon disappeared in the nurturing and peaceful setting you created for our art classes.
I loved the sound healing & meditation at the start of our session which really provided the grounding needed, to just let go and be creative.

Carol said …..Your gentle guidance and ability to instill a sense of self-belief in us as adults, is simply beautiful – and I am so genuinely grateful to you for your support, your non-judgmental guidance and your ability to share your own amazing talent with us so easily.

Ellaine said …..It seems a long time since I used a paint brush solely for me and tapping into my creative side. Having spent the time with you in the journey of meditation and having permission to play with paint was liberating. With your guidance and patience, I was able to create my own divine within art masterpiece which has become a personal favourite.
