It is with so much joy we offer a yoga immersion nestled on the island of Koh Yao Noi, a hidden gem off the coast of Phuket, Thailand.
Join international yoga & mediation teacher Brooke Devi accompanied by Jock Barns-Graham a ceremonialist, yoga teacher and wellness facilitator, for a week long immersion into the Heart of Tantra yoga. Six days tucked away in an oasis off the coast of Phuket, where you will immerse in sacred sound, mediation, yoga asana, rich philosophy, plant ceremony and integrative workshops.
The process of Hatha yoga is a development of self awareness.
The philosophy and practices on offer will equip you with tools that liberate unhelpful thought and habit patterns that keep one entangled in limiting beliefs. It is a process of expanding into a higher state of self awareness. These practices simply accelerate, enhance and enrich the path to awakening.
We practice to show up for life as it presents itself. To actively engage with our desires, our goals, our loved ones and fully awaken to the creative power within.
What we will cover
Lineage based teachings and the rich philosophy of Tantra yoga where the practices of Hatha yoga has emerged from.
The contemplation of mythology, storytelling, and our constant embrace of the rise of Kundalini.
The energetics of a yoga practice and how to move beyond the physical asana and attune to the subtle essence of a yoga practice.
The power and potency of Cacao medicine and ceremony. Take home tools on how to create ritual and self-led ceremony.
Evolve skills of self-awareness and enhance your personal growth through workshops on dissolving the past and carving out the future.
Somatic practices such as asana, pranayama and meditation.
