Classes during the Retreat will be a combination of yogic exercises, breathing practices, meditations, journaling, and interactive group sessions. You will also learn and practice the Art of Silence. The power of the mind grows when it is silent. A silent mind gives us the answers to what we need. Visualizations, Imagery and Powerful Self-talk are useful tools to help uplift us and bring us in the direction of where we would like to be. 

​

Classes will be taught by Sunita Singh who offers her insight on this relation of mind, body and spirit, and how its better understanding can help us grow into who we really are while we stay healthy and youthful. Through the regular practice of yoga and meditation

All classes will take place in the lush tropics of South Goa with the sun and sand, blue skies, warm seas, and fresh tropical fruits and lovely greens. Venue: Brushwood Villa www.brushwoodvilla.com

Osteoporosis

​

​

​

​

Lower Back Pain 

​

​

Arthritis

​

​

​

Summary

The two major underlying causes for osteoporosis is the body’s inability to absorb calcium and minerals resulting in the loss of these vital nutrients for the good health of the bones and teeth. This leads to weakening of the bones and the increased susceptibility of bone breakage. Through a regular yoga practice, one can effectively promote the strengthening of the bones, as well as the surrounding muscles. A healthy diet of fruits and vegetables will bring more ‘live’ energy into your body. While yoga won't reverse bone damage brought about by osteoporosis, it can slow down its effect and can significantly help strengthen the bones.

​

Lower back pain is one of the most common complaints amongst not just the elderly, but also the youth. Medication can just help relieve the pain for some time, but the best and healthiest way to strengthen the back is through a yoga practice. There are many effective yoga poses to treat and reduce back pain and be free of it forever. 

​

Arthritis is caused by poor bone and muscle health which creates disproportionate body structure and weight. Regular practice of yoga can help make the bones strong and bring more flexibility to the muscles. It also helps in bringing the body to its ideal body weight which is very important in the treatment and management of arthritis, osteoporosis and back pain.

​

Yoga helps to change your physical body, and these changes will bring out the best within you. This retreat, also called a Yoga Healing Holiday, includes relaxing walks on the beach at sunset and at sunrise. Allow the pristine beauty of nature to help nourish your mind and soul. Sit on the beach at sunset and watch the therapeutic waves and sounds of the sea soothe your inner being. Allow the lush nature and if you are a bird lover, you will certainly enjoy the varieties of the beautiful birds that you will see here.
