Rest. Heal. Learn. Explore. Deepen. Let go.
Join this transformational retreat with Rachel Krentzman, physical therapist and yoga therapist, as you explore alignment as a pathway to complete healing and well-being. Each day includes themed Happy Back Yoga classes, along with mindfulness meditation and yoga nidra. You will also discover how long-held beliefs can shape posture, and how to build a personal practice that supports your body type and lifestyle. All of this unfolds in the breathtaking natural setting of Pelion, where the forest meets the sea.
"Alignment is not just about your body, it is about living your life with less effort and more ease." ~ Rachel Krentzman
What if there were nothing wrong with you? What if the pain or discomfort you feel in body and mind is connected to patterns of tension and defense developed over a lifetime? These patterns may once have served you well, but perhaps they are no longer needed. This retreat offers space to explore a new way of being in the world.
Alignment is both an inner and outer state. It helps us feel in tune with nature, with our deepest self, and with the needs of the body. When we are aligned, the skeleton offers support, the muscles do not have to work harder, and a greater sense of ease and balance can emerge.
Change is not always easy, but it is possible. Over this 7-night workshop, we will look at the barriers that keep us from alignment and learn practical ways to create more freedom, both in the body and in the mind. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience with mindfulness, alignment-based yoga, and understanding character strategies, Rachel will guide participants toward greater ease and relief from pain and discomfort.
Rest. Heal. Learn. Explore. Deepen. Let go.
This training is ideal for:
Anyone experiencing back or neck pain, chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, or overthinking.
Yoga practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of the body-mind connection.
