Samahita Yoga Retreat
Living Yoga, Living Well
February 27 - March 6, 2013
with Elonne Stockton
About the Retreat
Discover how the practice and study of yoga can help strengthen our minds and all the systems of our bodies so that we are better equipped to deal with the ups and downs of life. Learnhow yoga gradually teaches us to navigate life's uncertainties and challenges, as well as its joys and achievements, with greater ease and evenness of mind. Through some theoretical study and plenty of actual practice, we will find out how infinitely practical yoga can be.
Throughout the week we will have morning breathwork - pranayama and asana sessions, helping you develop and build your self-practice, followed by afternoon discussions/workshops and restorative asana classes. Some mornings there will be additional silent walks, and some evenings we will have optional meditation and other activities.
We will also discoverthe healing and meditative effects of mantra and sound.
All levels of yoga experience are welcome. This is an opportunity to be in yoga, to live it, to immerse ourselves in the practice of yoga. It is a chance to be in a healthy and uplifting setting with like-minded people, learning about the practice while building something solid that we can take with us to enrich our lives.
Please join us!

Testimonials
I had a wonderful 5 weeks at Samahita Yoga Thailand and feel very blessed
having very coincidently found my way to you five years ago.
I had no idea back then how dramatically this 2 weeks at YT would
change my life to the better.
I am glad to know you and that you are developing YT into such a
brilliant place.
I am looking forward to spending lots of times with you.

Romana, 2008
I wanted to thank you very sincerely for the wonderful retreat. I was looking over my photos yesterday
and felt quite nostalgic... everyone attended that retreat for their own reasons, but it was a magic moment
in space & time and I'm sure we all left with positive thoughts and resolutions for the future.
Whether a retreat like that can make significant changes in one's lives depends on the individual... I know that
not only did my practise improve and my eyes were opened to new avenues of study and inquiry, but another
benefit of the retreat was the friendships I made there.
Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher and an inspiration... I'm lucky that I can keep practising
here in Montreal, but you've also inspired me in other aspects of yoga, by your discourse and by your example.
Robert, Canada 2006
I loved the intimacy of the atmosphere at Samahita Yoga Thailand, it is small enough that everyone gets to know each other and chat. This made my experience on detox that much more enjoyable!
Pauline, Australia 2011
Stayed in a beautiful deluxe room during Tiwari. Excellent food, good diversity and not too spicy. Thank you for a great stay.
Christine, 2012
