Taking the time to recharge

Let's start the New Year the way we want to live: Strong, confident and authentic. Every year begins with the hope of improvement. But good resolutions often don't last long. They fall apart after a short time and old habits creep back in.

In order to implement good resolutions, we need a good foundation, the right framework and time. In this yoga retreat we take our resolutions seriously. If it's a new beginning, then it's the right one!

You finally want to do more for yourself, move more, react more relaxed in challenging times and not lose your lightness above all? Then this is the right retreat for you. We will practice how to practice individually in an integral yoga practice in the way your body needs. We will learn how to realistically integrate a daily meditation practice into our lives. We train to control our moods, our posture, and our nervous system through specific breathing techniques. We also train to accept things we cannot change and to enjoy life as it is given to us.

You will flow through the classical asanas in sweaty flows to selected sound, sit in silence and practice difficult postures in small workshop sessions. If you want to. Because it's your holiday and you practice exactly as it suits you.

In 2024 you finally want to master the headstand? Why not? In any case, you will practice a technique to deal with challenges, authentically, courageously, and full of love for your body.

The yoga retreat is explicitly suitable for all levels, including beginners.

A weekend dedicated to Your inner harmony with Lisa Prugger. 

This weekend is designed to simply make you feel at ease, relaxed and balanced within yourself. Active morning Yoga classes followed by a wholesome and nourishing breakfast will get your energy moving.

In the free time of this retreat you have the opportunity to do whatever makes your soul smile, maybe a stroll through the beautiful city of Bolzano or maybe exploring the dolomites that surround Bolzano, the Parkhotel Mondschein also offers a lot of sweet corners to just sit and relax while reading your favorite book. The hotel as well offers a Sauna and Fitness area that you can use.

Passive Yin Yoga and deep stretching Sessions in the late afternoon will bring calmness and have a positive impact on your good night sleep before we will meet for dinner all together and have time reflect on the day. 

On one evening you will also get to experience a sound bath with the Arianna Piazzi, Yoga Teacher and Studio Manager of arise Body & Mind. Ari is an amazing sound alchemist and will take you on the journey while doing her magic of sounds. A sound bath is a deeply immersive, full-body listening experience that intentionally uses sound to invite therapeutic and restorative effects to the mind and body. All you have to do in a sound bath is to lie down, have an open mind, relax and listen. When you are alive in your senses you can sink deeper into the present moment. 

All in all this weekend will be your chance to recharge your own batteries and bring a sense of harmony and balance. 

We are already so exited to welcome you and dive into a weekend full of Yoga, good food and harmony with You.

About Shahed Naji

Sha is a Lebanese yoga teacher and multidisciplinary artist living and working in Berlin, Germany. His interest in meditation and eastern philosophies developed during his younger years, which was an additional motivation for him to start practicing yoga. He continues to explore this interest by attending meditation practices and workshops at temples and retreats. For Shahed, yoga is an ethical exercise, where the physical part of it is an execution of the meditative aspect. His style of teaching is asana-based, and his classes focus on conveying a deeper understanding of the alignment behind the asanas. Shahed’s classes incorporate deeper backbends, hip opening, twists and forward folds, while always offering modifications and hands-on assists. Meditation and breathwork also form an integral part of his teaching. Through his classes, Shahed generates a full body workout that creates longer, leaner muscles and enhanced physical mobility.

Tejas /. Life force, radiance, beauty, fire, flame, radiance, vitality, radiance, glow.

Tejas is Sanskrit for the radiance that arises when life force can flow freely. It is when we are fully in contact with ourselves, life and all the wonders in between. This retreat takes you on this journey with just the right mix of intensive daily yoga practice, recharging, relaxing and enjoying all the colours of Italy.

We spend a few special days in an almost unreal beautiful hotel, nestled in a spacious park and the mountain scenery of Bolzano. The yoga sessions are taught by Judith, assisted by Tina and are suitable for all levels.

Our yoga sessions let you dive into new expanses amidst the beautiful backdrop - with deep bodywork and space to recharge and enjoy. The practice leads through a variety of different experiences, from dynamic flows, precise alignment to meditation, ritual, yoga philosophy and activating your own power. We start the day with an aligned, dynamic class that detoxifies and activates. In the evening there are gentle, restorative sessions, yin yoga, breathwork, yoga nidra and anything else that recharges you.
