Everyone loves to leave their regular existence for a little rest, relaxation and perhaps adventure. Taking a vacation is an excellent way to renew. New locations, different experiences and all inclusive packages create a fantasy world and escape from the everyday.

On vacation we often forget ourselves and over indulge in the seemingly limitless sun, food and alcohol.ย  We give up our physical activities in the name of relaxation.ย  We over eat because the resort is all inclusive. We live a life we think is superior to the one we temporary left behind. We are looking for the escape from reality. The truth of the matter is we end up exhausting ourselves in over indulgence. Dreading the end of the vacation and when we return home we feel like need a vacation from our vacation.

If you really want to renew your mind, body and soul โ€“ Take a yoga retreat.

Yoga Retreats are an investment in you. Instead of over indulging your body and attempting to escape from your mind, wouldnโ€™t it be a better choice to do something that strengthens your body and nourishes your mind?

Do something you love in a new location and experience your yoga practice in an entirely new way.ย  Take a tropical retreat in the colder months to revitalize your body. Are you feeling sluggish and worn out? Winter is the season for heaviness and slumber โ€œwhy not flip the script โ€œand enjoy a sunny change. Sand between your toes in โ€œpalm treeโ€ pose gives you new perspective.ย  Yoga on the sand is a different challenge and can bring a whole new awareness of self.

Take a Yoga Retreat with a theme that speaks to your heart. Have you been meaning to meditate? A break from your everyday routine may be the best time to start building this new skill. On a yoga retreat meditation is often a major component of your experience. This is an opportunity to sit quietly and get really still without any real distractions. Meditation as part of a yoga retreat helps create a guilt-free experience of solitude and awareness.

Dive deeper into your practice or learn about yoga for the first time on a yoga retreat. You have set aside time fully dedicated to your well-being. Yoga retreats are designed to expand your awareness and make a deeper connection to yourself. Yoga teaches us how to live life more skillfully. You can learn new techniques to relieve stress, strengthen and stretch your body. You are much more likely to remain dedicated to your practice when you get home if you are immersed daily in your practice while you were away.

Take an opportunity to taste, feel and experience something totally new. ย Fresh local fruits, vegetables andย connections made to nature can revitalize and boost your metabolism. Your experience of new locations are greatly enhanced and while you learn to live in the moment through your yoga practice. You learn to remain present and focused so your time away moves more slowly. Youโ€™re more open to mindfulness practices because you want to remember every moment of your life changing experience.

Refocusing your attention and re-energizing your body through yoga can open you up to new opportunities in your life. Change your perspective and change your life. A yoga retreat can give you new perspective and new skills to help you navigate and discover your lifeโ€™s purpose. Dedicating time for your personal growth and development benefits your soul and raises your vibration.

A typical all-inclusive vacation taxes your body and often leaves you just as tired and imbalanced as you were before your vacation. A yoga retreat is the way to go for real recharging and energizing!

All that is left to do now is choose how you want to invest in you. A Yoga Retreat can change your life, strengthen your body and enhance your spiritโ€ฆYour life awaitsโ€ฆ
