With sprawling mountains with pleasant climes, masses of green to soothe the eye and a couple of stunning quiet beaches for relaxation, the island is truly an amazing yoga retreat destination. Connect your spirit with nature on an inspirational yoga retreat in Sri Lanka.
Instead of simply visiting your yoga shala for your daily yoga practice, how about a different backdrop on your time away from home? Imagine performing Suriya Namaskara as the sunrises on the east coast while listening to the harmony of the ocean waves or striking the Vrksasana (tree pose) surrounded by trees in the cool climes of the green mountains. This is an opportunity to connect with nature while developing a deeper spiritual connection.
If your objective is to truly get away from the modern world and find your peace, yoga retreats in Sri Lanka are certainly for you! Surrounded by nature, this island offers professional yogis and beginners a choice of yoga retreats either on the beachside or in the mountains. Learn a variety of yoga styles, such as Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Kundalini, taught by experienced instructors as well.
To discipline and quieten the mind is not an easy task to accomplish. Sri Lanka offers a total balance of the mind through Buddhist retreats and other meditation practices. Select which techniques resonate best with you and set off on a journey of self-discovery with expert instructors to guide you.
Sri Lanka is well-versed in the ancient art of Ayurveda where the balance of body, mind, and spirit can be achieved.
