Autumn Yoga & Wellbeing Weekend

HAPPY CHAKRAS YOGA & WELLBEING WEEKEND

Happy Chakras Yoga & Wellbeing Weekends are aimed at those who seek a simple retreat in a peaceful place in nature; a place to let go of the fast-pace of daily life, and reconnect with self. Places are intentionally limited to provide a more comfortable space, especially for those who prefer being in a smaller group.

Eskdale is a peaceful part of the Western Lake District, surrounded by fells and mountains. Nestled at the foothills of Muncaster Fell is Forest How Guest House, a detached Victorian house with grounds that provide a haven for wildlife, including red squirrels. You can see photographs on their website: https://www.foresthow.co.uk/

The event starts around 5pm/6pm on Fri and closes 1:30pm Sunday. (Forest How inform me that check-in is from 2pm on Friday).

The price of the Yoga & Wellbeing event is £80 per person which includes all Yoga & Wellbeing sessions throughout the weekend.

SINGLE OCCUPANCY £100 rooms with shared bathroom only (for an ensuite, you still need to pay for 2 places for the event).

DOGS are not allowed in sessions. However, Forest How is dog friendly. So, you can bring your dog/s. Partners not taking part in the wellbeing event are also welcome.

I aim to make my events as inclusive as possible. All genders, adult ages, shapes and sizes are welcome, be aware, though, there is uneven ground and steps.
Please, don't be put off if you haven't done yoga before. The yoga I teach is gentle and therapeutic where the focus is on mental/emotional as well as physical wellbeing. And there's always the option to take time out if you wish Plus, if getting down on the floor is a challenge for you, there is the option of being seated on a chair during some sessions.

Yoga & Wellbeing Sessions- What to Expect (not definitive as I often modify according to the season and the people who come along).
Gentle, yet powerful yoga practices for body/ mind including ‘Back Care’, ‘Embrace the Day’, ‘Surrender to Yin’, and ‘Yoga in Nature’.

AND IT'S NOT ALL YOGA … Yoga is only one aspect of Happy Chakras Yoga & Wellbeing Weekends. There's lots of other wellbeing practices including a Nature Connection session, Creativity, Drum Journeying, Relaxation, Journaling plus FREE TIME to do as you please …rest, read …. Forest How is located at the foothills of Muncaster Fell and a public footpath runs by. Great location if you fancy a run or hike, or maybe a stroll to the village. In addition, the sandy beaches of Drigg and Seascale are a short drive away, and The Ravenglass to Eskdale narrow-gauge railway is just a 15-minute walk away.

Anyway, enough from me. This is what some previous attendees have to say and if you have any questions please do contact me.

"Michelle, thank you for a wonderful weekend. …. Your inclusion of everyone with thoughtful consideration is humbling …"

"Michelle has an incredible ability to dissolve the most resilient barrier of self consciousness and enable the participant to enjoy the emotional release and the peace that her retreats provide.... Essentially grounding wellbeing havens."

"…I had never done yoga before until this weekend. However, her clear instruction and gentle approach allowed me to follow the class with ease. Her infectious calming energy has helped me feel less anxious, more clear-headed and powerful. I will definitely be back".

" Really needed this experience in my life at the moment. Feeling peaceful & relaxed and ready to go back into the world with the batteries recharged."
