Yoga Retreats in Cape Verde

The moment that we truly start to change is also the moment that our external experiences transmute from ‘ something that is happening to us’ to ‘ something that is happening through us’. With this awareness, ‘what is happening’ no longer matters as much.

While maintaining a yoga practice can be a great way to reduce stress, stay in shape, and calm the mind, finding time to relax through yoga in the modern world is a growing problem. Here are five easy stress-relieving, relaxing and calming yoga positions for beginners and advanced yogis alike by Rachel, Escape Haven's retreat manager! As Geeta Iyengar said, when this body has been so magnificently and artistically created by God, it is only fitting that we should maintain it in good health and harmony by the most excellent and artistic science of yoga.

Ten years ago, Janine Hall, a 32-year-old hard-working and upbeat Kiwi businesswoman, was blue, burned-out and wanted a life more extraordinary. Fast forward to today, she runs one of Bali's highest-rated yoga retreat, Escape Haven.

Unbeatable scenery, authentic yoga vibes, healthy lifestyle, delicious vegetarian options and world-renowned gurus to learn from, what better scenario could you imagine to do your yoga teacher training?
