Indian proverb: “We have to rest from time to time and wait until our souls have caught up with us again.”
A time for you and a time to be a good friend to yourself and perhaps a get away from everyday life, away from commitments and a fully structured day and towards spontaneity, easy flow and calm. Yoga Soul Time is a program that you adapt to your needs. Design every day. Custom fit your plans. The Soul Time Week at the Atha Yoga Retreat House brings good times with some group activities, individual work opportunities and customizable options. However, if one is looking for structure and rhythm, we have programs with enjoyable activities. The Soul Time weeks are for small groups (maximum of 8 participants).
Yoga:
Isabella Welsch guides the group through a program, with carefully designed yoga-classes on an intermediate level. She teaches her own, modern blend of different styles, which she calls atha yoga. Many poses allow you to adjust to an easier or more challenging level. We need to know a bit about physical and psychological fitness of a participant: Please let us know ahead if you have any conditions.
Note: Classes are taught english and german.
Single sessions:
On some afternoons you will have an opportunity to work individually with Isabella Welsch, a yoga teacher and psychotherapist with many years of experience. With her help, you can create your own individual yoga and meditation exercise program, work psychologically on stressful living conditions or go on a shamanic trance journey to the soul recovery (50 € per hour).
You can also treat yourself to a massage (50 € per hour.) – there are several masseurs who use different massage techniques, including lymphatic drainage and osteopathy.
