About the 7 major ChakrasMorning flow

In this morning flow class we use vinyasa transitions to move, create space, length and strength. Combining breath with movement we step on the mat

fully present, leaving us fully energised to start our day!

Candle Light YinAfter a long day what better way to wind down with a beautiful candle

light yin yoga class. With longer held poses the emphasis of the class is on introspection, seeing and observing the body in every pose.

Ending with a silent meditation.

Yoga NidraYoga Nidra, or yogic sleep, is a state of consciousness between waking

and sleeping, like the “going-to-sleep” stage. It is a state in which the body is completely relaxed, and the practitioner becomes systematically and

increasingly aware of the inner world by following a set of verbal instructions. A beautiful way to end the day.

The 7 major ChakrasThe 7 chakras are the seats of energy in your body that start at the base of your

spine and travel all the way up and out the top of your head.

These 7 energy centers pulse and vibrate all the time, and they help you live a full and meaningful life.

You may have heard that energy can’t be created or destroyed.

So, your chakras contain universal energy that’s always been around. This energy gets divided up in your body and is constantly growing, shrinking and moving. As

it does so, your inspiration, motivation and focus shifts.

Shifts in the energy of your chakras cause your thoughts, feelings, moods, perceptions and subsequently, your actions, to change. These shifts can also

attract circumstances and events into your life.

Every day, we will focus on one, maybe two different Chakras. We will explore how an imballance of Chakras could affect

your daily life.

Y O G A I N S T R U C T O R - M I A J A C O BMia’s Yoga journey started about 10 years ago. A former dancer, she first was interested in the physical side of yoga but discovered the transformative magic of yoga: the unity of body and mind, the feeling of balance and centeredness, the feeling of connection with yourself, the universe and life.

Today her passion is to share this in a loving way by her teachings.

She is very grateful to Sharon Gannon and her teachers at Jivamukti Berlin and New York who will always be an incredible inspiration and to all her teachers at Trimurti Yoga in India where she received her 200 RYT Yoga Alliance Teacher Certificate.

As you will all know, nutrition is just as important as exercise when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. So whilst you are focusing on your practice, our retreat chef will be working just as hard to provide you with healthy but exceptionally tasty food. Using locally sourced and seasonal produce, even using eggs from the chickens and produce from the garden where possible.

Food is vegetarian, often vegan, and will also have a focus on the Chakras.

Of course, you can’t travel all the way to France without sampling some of the local wines, so we will provide you with local wine at dinner, and even an optional excursion to visit some of the vineyards. You’ll be strolling through

L O C A T I O N

Domaine de Mournac is in Southern France, very close to the Pyrenees mountains and the border with Spain. Benefiting from glorious sunshine most of the time, but still with green and lush vegetation.

You can walk amongst the woodlands in the domaine, or walk up through the vineyards surrounding the property. A trek to the top of nearby Mont Sec is a must!
