Retreat description
As we head into 2021 - having come out of a very unique and turbulent year - are there things you want to change about your life moving forward? Well, this is your opportunity to create the foundations for a fantastic year ahead, or at least get some quiet time to reflect and begin to ask yourself these questions.
This retreat is all about transformation, and understanding how yoga and meditation can be used as tools - for not only the body and mind - but the deeper parts of your being so that nothin stands between you and reaching your potential.
This retreat will include a manifesting session where you will get the opportunity to create a vision board and learn accompanying yoga, meditation, visualisation and affirmation techniques you can use on a daily basis to help you to supercharge the power of your vision board.
We will also be doing fun unique and relaxing activities out in nature, as being out in the elements is one of the best ways to quieten the mind to able to hear your inner guidance clearly.
About usโฆ
Paul and Aja have been running retreats together for over 10 years and having adventures in Watamu for even longer.
Aja teaches Vinyasa and Yin yoga, Dru yoga and meditation and ayurveda, and Paul leads Dru yoga and meditation retreats, adventures and vision board workshops.
This retreat will be the kind of weekend they like most - finding the balance between outer exploration and inner stillness.
Special Pre-Retreat 3 Night Extension
This four day, three night retreat is the right length of time for many. But others often ask if the retreats can be longer. So for this retreat we have made an option whereby you can join us for three nights before the retreat at a discounted rate, for the chance to have a quiet few days of detoxification and rejuvenation before the retreat starts
The 3 extra nights would be
Check In: 25th January 2021 - from noon
Up to 28th January 2021 - when the retreat starts by 4.00 pm
The cost of these 3 extra nights are discounted from our normal rates to encourage people to come for this experience. During these 3 nights, you can be on one of our detox menus (pure juice diet, mono-meal kitchiri diet, detox diet) or just eat the regular Treehouse food which is additive-free, sugar free and minimal oil. We will offer a walk and 2x yoga per day included in the package for these days.
Rather than differentiating upper and lower rooms and resident-non resident, all rooms cost :
Detox Menu + Walk, 2x Yoga = Shs 13,000 per night sharing
Regular Menu Half Board, Walk, 2x Yoga = Shs 13,000 per night sharing
Regular Menu Full Board, Walk, 2x Yoga = Shs 15,000 per night sharing
And rooms are allocated on a first-come first served basis.
Massages are discounted to Shs 3000 per hour during this period
