Program
Shakti yoga retreat - Pathway of the empowered goddess
Dear sister,
Sit in a healing circle, take a deep, soft inhalation to open space in your body for receiving support, and allow your next slow exhalation to take away any tension and stress.
Yoga Balance Way is delighted to invite you to their Shakti yoga retreat, which offers a rich program carefully designed to help you connect with your inner self and embrace your feminine essence.
Shakti, the divine energy within people, is vibrant, powerful, and wild. It creates and nourishes. Yet, due to the way of modern life, stress, and tiring daily routines, Shakti becomes inactive.
The retreat is the right place for you if you are feeling overwhelmed and distant from yourself if you've built walls around you and taken on too much load on your shoulders. This space will offer a chance to reflect, let go, and reconnect with your true self.
If you are ready to open up, dive into your depths, enjoy and explore, heal and kiss your wounds, and then dance with chaos, be vulnerable and sensual, and all that is your true essence - Yoga Balance Way will be there to support you. They invite you to join them on a journey of diving into inner peace and contentment through their yoga retreat program.
In the circle, you sit exactly as you are and after a long time, you can be without a mask, without a role, and without fear. You will learn and discover your path through morning yoga cleansing rituals, Dynamic Vinyasa practice, soft afternoon Yin yoga, Face yoga, meditation, yoga Nidra, rituals, and women's circles.
There will also be plenty of free time for swimming, sunbathing, and integration. You will be nourished by a delicious vegetarian/vegan breakfast and dinner prepared with fresh, local ingredients.

Retreat location
Iž, an island of fishermen, potters, and olive growers, is one of the most picturesque islands in the Zadar archipelago. It is covered with typical Mediterranean plants and is cultivated with numerous olive trees. The island is surrounded by turquoise, and crystal clear sea and offers many secluded beaches where you can enjoy and relax.
It is the perfect place to de-stress since there is little to no traffic on the island. You can enjoy time spent in silence, walks in untouched nature or quiet village streets, and at night, you can gaze at a clear sky full of stars. This is the perfect place to experience island life: rewind, soak up the sun, enjoy the salt on your skin, allow yourself to be a little bit lazy, and enjoy the smell of Mediterranean herbs.
