Mysterious You Yoga Retreat

Embark on a special adventure of self-discovery during a 7-day yoga retreat on Norfolk Island. We'll explore the ancient wisdom of the 9 emotions, known as rasas, to uncover insights about ourselves. This journey will help you tap into your hidden potential.
 

Ever after reading Morgan's Run by Colleen McCullough have I wished to go and visit Norfolk Island with its interesting history. This tiny island in the South Pacific is filled with mystery:

 

"Around every bend you’ll find a new surprise or twist that will make you rethink your notions of paradise. The beaches are some of the Pacific’s best, with impossibly clear waters sheltered by teeming coral reefs just a short swim from the sand. But you’ll also discover moody cliffs where waterfalls tumble into the sea and dramatic headlands with views that go on forever. " (https://www.norfolkisland.com.au/)

​

Here on Norfolk Island, we have a great place to explore our own mysteries. We'll dig into our thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a peaceful setting. This island's beauty and calmness create the perfect atmosphere for self-exploration.

 

Throughout the retreat, we'll do yoga, meditation, and workshops every day. This will help us understand and embrace our emotions, from happiness to sadness, love to anger. By doing this, we'll learn and grow in a soothing environment.

​

As you practice, the island's calmness and ocean breezes will help you connect with your body and mind. Norfolk Island's peaceful vibe will guide you toward self-reflection and personal growth, helping you find harmony with the world around you.

​

This retreat offers practices that allow you to connect to your body, to develop mental awareness, to challenge and laugh at yourself, to slow down and arrive in the the present moment. You will be able to unwind, to let go of your rules, your responsibilities, your worries, so that you can be more playful, connect with nature, and deepen your awareness to enhance your happiness and well-being. You will be guided through meditation and yoga (flow and yin) sessions daily to reconnect to and heal your body and mind.  Anneriek creates a trusting and open environment to share and explore your experience.

INSURANCE
I see it mandatory to obtain travel insurance prior to travelling to Norfolk Island. Travel can be unpredictable due to weather, cancelled or changed flights etc. so it's always a good idea to be covered.
