Woodland Yoga Retreat 2024: a review

10 inspiring women from all walks of life decided to down tools for the weekend and enter the forest.

Greeted by radiant soul & top host @luizacruz this year’s rain fall meant our home for the weekend was vibrantly alive, lush and full, leaning in to hold us in a green embrace.  Boutique camping meant comfy yurts & cosy cabins with crisp fresh linen and log burners.

Yoga began to do the work of detangling the body and the tired mind

Gently unraveling the energy body, hearts opened, voices came together to create harmonies that were so sweet, tears of revelation then came as true nature began to re-surface. These women who do so much in our world for others decided that they were deserving of that same grace, and graced they were with seeing themselves and one another lacking nothing, bathing in their completeness. Further stirring the vibrating peace beneath was facialist @lauratucker who descended them further in to great aliveness on the inside.

Reclaiming themselves didn’t stop there

@dragonflychef wove her magic with vibrant, healthy vegan dishes, creating meals that were not only a feast for the taste buds but also a nourishing gift to the body & mind. Sun beams catching the backs of the eyelids glinting through the trees, wild swimming in a lake through the woodland, outdoor sauna, ice bath & camp fires after dinner meant that connections grew fast, laughs were hard & sentiments were soft.

“The reality towards which you flow, effortlessly, if you allow it, is unbound by the linear concepts of time and space. It is a reality where physical perception, by definition, is superfluous. 

 

It is the result of a melding, a bonding, a joyful unity of the totality of your essence in harmony with what is now perceived to be others. 

 

Ultimately, there will be no distinction between the perception of self and that of others, for all will be oneness. We are that oneness. We are the unity of all that is. We are the unity of which you are, indeed a part, and toward the experience of which you strive, whether knowingly or not, we are your hearts longing to reunite with the source of your beginnings. We are your deep seated dream of bonding with the fragmented aspects of your own essence scattered since time immemorial, throughout creation, and we are the impetus towards that unification. 

 

We are the invitation that calls you to action and awakens you from the stupa you call your life. We are the opportunity to purge yourself of the karmic baggage you carry as a testimony to the state of separation you embody. We are the farthest reaching cry of your very soul to have the self imposed blinders removed that you may be permitted to truly see. We are the aspect of your own self that transcends every level throughout creation, yearning in unison with you to be freed of the shackles of a reality defined by linear limitation. We are the ultimate end result of what has been referred to as ascension, we are as you are and as you are yet to be. You are a piece of divine essence with consciousness, with identity. Identity expression and experience of the one.”
