[tab:LOCATION]
This retreat is held at the Shekinashram, situated in Dod Lane, Glastonbury, Somerset. Shekinashram is a spiritual community based on a commitment to living consciously, peacefully and truthfully. You will be asked to share and respect this commitment during your stay.
[tab:TYPICAL DAY]
The weekend’s wide ranging activities will include guided meditation, pranyama, inner awareness work and a variety of sound healing and bakti yoga. We will focus on removing stress, restoring balance and creating harmony in body, mind and spirit.
During the retreat we will explore Rasa Vinjasa, or flow yoga. This yoga practice is challenging yet caring for your body. Rasa Vinjasa is said to be the yogic ‘juice of life’ as without it we become dry, or stuck in the routine of everyday life. Vinjasa yoga enlivens the body and soul. It is a moving meditation tasting the ‘now’.
There will be time during the weekend to explore Glastonbury, visit the Tor and other local sites such as the ancient Chalice Well.

The Shekinashram is situated in a beautiful, quiet location, on the side of Chalice Hill yet is a 5 minute walk into the centre of Glastonbury. The famous Tor is a 15 minute walk away.
