EASTER WEEKEND YOGA AND CHANTING RETREAT

A heart-warming weekend with lots of  yoga, chanting and positive thinking

6th – 8th April 2012

At Shekinashram

With Liza Lilintahl


Dedicate a whole weekend for yourself. Disconnect from the routine and connect to your heart. Discover a new way of being, more joyful and whole, with lots of yoga, chanting, positive thinking and much more! Share your best self with like-minded people in one of the most magical and sacred sites in the world: Glastonbury (or also called Avalon), the heart chakra of the world!

The venue:

Shekinashram is an ashram and holistic retreat centre with a difference. It is a place of retreat and celebration both peaceful and dynamic, the ambience here is homely, relaxed, grounded and is focused on living consciously, peacefully and truthfully. As a spiritual community, Shekinashram is a western evolution of an ancient tradition where sacred space is created away from the world where individuals come to both cultivate and draw upon spiritual sustenance. There is a friendly, devotional atmosphere where work is treated as meditation and selfless service is used as usual practice.

Shekinashram is easy to reach from London and the journey is about 2,5 h. For more information about the venue, pictures and how to get there, please visit www.shekinashram.org

Testimonies from past retreats:

“Yoga with Liza is not only a calm, relaxing and emotionally balancing experience but is also filled with fun, laughter and lots of giggles! Liza is welcoming, friendly and genuinely passionate about teaching Yoga to all levels. Pawel’s hands are healing and his unusual treatments are definitely worth sampling!”

“I met Liza her and Pawel last year in Spain, it was a beautiful week… her kindness, her love for yoga, and her love for people were amazing… I had such a great week that we are still in contact after a year !
I would highly recommend her yoga retreat for the serenity, happiness and chanting , and the massages…actually I am going again…”
Caroline Le Barbier

“I had such a wonderful time on this retreat – i came back feeling completely re-energised and zen, and I feel like my yoga really progressed. There was a great balance between yoga and down-time, plus lots of extras from yoga nidra to amazing treatments from Pavel. Liza and Pawel were great teachers and lovely company!”

 Liza Lilintahl
Liza has been practicing yoga for over 10 years. Her unique hatha flow teaching style enables student to find a balance between strength, flexibility and relaxation, combining creative and dynamic sequencing, with restorative and relaxing postures. During her classes, she encourages students to adjust the yoga to their possibilities and limitations, as supposed to force the body to achieve yet another physical posture. Therefore, she always gives options and modifications throughout the classes so this retreat is open to all levels
Liza is also a kirtan and devotional singer and a recording artist so there will be chanting in the evenings througout this retreat!
Liza has studied with top international vinyasa flow, restorative and bhakti yoga teachers as Shiva Rea, Judith Lasater and Jai Uttal

Pawel Wiacek
Pawel has studied and practiced various forms of bodywork and energy medicine modalities for the last 7 years. He is particularly interested in bridging the mind and the body gap, seeing and treating a person as a whole rather than a set of unrelated symptoms. The fascination with emotional aspects of dis-ease and tissue memory keep encouraging him to study and explore various new ways of looking at health. Pawel practises in London from Triyoga Primrose Hill and Triyoga Soho. At the retreat, Pawel will offer Integrated Bodywork –Massage and Myofascial Release, Deep Tissue Massage, Aromatherapy Massage and Reflexology. For those interested in subtle energy work, you can also explore The Metamorphic Technique and The Theta Healing.
