5 Day Yoga and Meditation Retreat with shakti
at the Sea to Sky Retreat Centre

Join shakti for 5 days and 4 nights of peace, tranquility, yoga, and meditation up at the Sea to Sky Retreat Centre. This Centre is on a secluded 40 acre site of extraordinary natural beauty in the mountains near Whistler, B.C.

 

About the spirit of the retreat:

When surviving stops fulfilling us,
When chasing our instincts starts exhausting us
When DNA becomes only small part of what we are,
And “human nature” no longer feels like who we are,
This is when the seed of spirituality opens up,
Sending new stems into our empty hearts
Golden flowers shaped like question marks,
Hanging from the branches, shining in the light,
Spreading heavenly fragrance from another time,
Where we were free of our forms, shapes and minds

shakti mhi, 2006

This June’s yoga retreat with shakti, will focus on the differences between who we are as a human beings and who we are as the higher self. The location is a beautiful and isolated Buddhist retreat centre between Squamish and Whistler. Surrounded by nature, we will experience our higher self and learn about our human nature through the practice of yoga, meditation and spontaneous dialogue. We will also explore a few extraordinary scientific movies and see how the latest 21st century science blends with ancient philosophies and timeless wisdom.

A deep understanding of our nature and the role survival plays in our existence can enlighten us on the source of all our suffering.
