Welcome to The Heart, a 10-day yoga retreat designed for those who are ready to let go of what is holding them back and embrace their full expression of creativity, wisdom, and vitality. This is a space where you can open up and reconnect with your inner self, allowing compassion, love, and equanimity to emerge naturally into your life.
Through the practice of asanas, pranayama, and kriyas, you will begin to release any emotional and energetic blockages that are preventing you from living your fullest life. But that's not all. This retreat will also focus on more subtle energy practices such as dynamic meditations, Chi Gong, and Flow Practice. These practices will help you to connect with your inner compass, allowing you to embrace your true self and let go of what you are not.
As you move through your practice, you will learn to listen to your body, mind, and spirit. You will discover the power of your breath, and how it can help you to open up and release any tension or stress that you may be carrying. With each practice, you will feel more connected to your innermost truth, allowing you to fully open yourself up to the world.
The Heart is a journey of self-discovery and transformation. It is a space where you can let go of your fears and embrace your full potential. As you learn to connect with your heart, you will discover that compassion, love, and equanimity are not something that you need to strive for. Instead, they will emerge naturally in your life, as you let go of what you are not and move towards your true nature.
So, take a deep breath and allow yourself to fully embrace The Heart. Let go of your fears and trust in the process. By the end of this retreat, you will feel more alive, more connected, and more in tune with your true self. You will have everything you need to continue on your journey of growth and transformation.

What you will learn
During this retreat, our senior teachers Satya and Sahaj will draw from several wisdom traditions to offer you 100 hours of practices ranging from asana, pranayama, meditation, healing, Taoist chi-kung, shamanic healing, and Buddhism, to chanting, rituals, and philosophy. Together with The Body and The Mind programs, The Heart presents the core of their Sva Dharma teachings.
We will begin exploring and realigning the physical body with the breath, experiencing the connection between the body and mind. We will then be ready to introduce the more subtle body/energy practices. The philosophical ground of practice will be based on the Bhagavad Gita.
We will be using more advanced yoga practices that help us to decode, uncover and, in a way, break down the walls of what is keeping us from being aware of our true wisdom nature. This practice will affect the nervous system, and this will change the patterns of the energy flow in the body.
We will learn how the energy in the body works, and how the energy body and mind are intimately connected. The subtle body is composed of energy pathways called nadis, and areas of focused life energy called chakras. When these channels are clear, our awareness is clear like the sky.
Through the deep immersion in the teachings of these very gifted and experienced teachers, you will come out as a different person, with a clearer understanding of yourself, your practice and your dharma - this retreat will literally open your heart and blow your mind away.
