Yoga retreat


Dear friends,

I just arrived to Stockholm last sunday after a beautiful summer, as every summer I had a yoga retreat, this time it was with Jose Luis Cabezas and Julia Attemborough,experts in Dynamic yoga, a method created by Godfrey Deveraux.
The experience was deep and nourishing.
The way was to find out the inherent purpose of yoga, the unity of mind, body and spirit in one word, INTEGRATION. Body and mind integration, structure and function integration, integration of body parts each other, integration of actions of the whole body, integration of movement and breathing.
we explore sensitizing the body, recognizing and appreciating the subtle sensations. I discovered that the sensations intensity it is not yoga's goal. Intense sensations indicate that the tissues are experiencing violence, so, we practiced sensitizing, smoothing joints and muscles. Rooting, widening, lengthening, soften and remaining always with as much steady and relaxed as possible.
I tried to be honest with myself respecting the pose, my own pose, avoiding actions that could't be save or enriching. I tried to be present towards what really happens, cultivating sensibility, honesty, opening, and generosity.......
