So many beautiful things! What a week of wonders it was!!!!!!!!!!! Connection with really everybody and ourselves, myself. In thoughts, talks, walks, exercises, sharing, openness, holding, releasing, and always the laughter, respect and love. This week was just so incredibly good and intense. For as long as I will live, I’ll cherish this.

THANK YOU ladies for a wonderful week. Your knowledge, heart and kindness make the group and experience what it was. Along with the wonderful women who showed up , in many ways. I am savoring the experience, and working on keeping my learnings into practice and a motivator for more.

Jullie warme, open houding / het feit dat jullie één waren met de groep / jullie intensieve betrokkenheid bij en aandacht voor ieder persoonlijk / jullie inzet, enthousiasme, overgave / jullie inspirerende lessen, sessies en meditaties / jullie soepele samenwerking en goede onderlinge verstandhouding / de wijze waarop jullie heel natuurlijk en spontaan gebruik maakten van wat er was en ruimte boden voor wat er spontaan ontstond / de manier waarop jullie er waren voor degene die dit nodig hadden (troostend, ondersteunend, voedend)… dit en meer maakte dat alle harten steeds meer open gingen en er soms zoveel liefde in de ruimte hing dat je er bijna plakken van kon snijden 🙂
Samantha Rice and I are working hard behind the scenes to organize our next Yoga Retreat for 2018……

The mystery of fascia….
In Yin Yoga we stay in a pose for a longer amount of time so we can stimulate the deeper layers of the body, including our fascia.
It is fascia that holds our body together. It envelops our organs, our muscles, our bones. Fascia itself is also connected together throughout the body, making it possible to feel the breath as well as the rebound effect of a pose everywhere in the body. Only YIN can take you there. Curious to know more about the mysterious fascia? Read this fascia-nating article…and be amazed.
Our bodies naturally react to all kinds of emotions such as anger, fear, grief, joy, love. But did you ever stop to think how much of our emotions we store in our bodies as well? Sometimes our mind is not ready to deal with these emotional confrontations and we end up pushing these feelings away by distracting ourselves. However, the body doesn’t forget: it stores these issues in our tissues.
Enter: Yin Yoga.
