Clinical Yoga Therapy, Eating Meditations, & Kundalini for Great Gut Health

This fulfilling course is offered to all those who are seeking to understand more about their holistic well-being as it relates to digestive gut health. Aimed to bring awareness of the dynamic energies within that sustain body, mind, and spirit, this retreat delves into gut health as it relates to the digestive system, as well as the fascinating importance of the body’s microbiome.

Though the progression of time has the capacity for beneficial change, it is often only when we come back to our (humanities) historical and traditional roots that we can begin a culture of awakening. This weekend will bring together the discipline of Ayurvedic wisdom, the evidence based benefits and practice of mindful eating, as well as the power of Kundalini Yoga for complete digestive wellbeing.

Eating Meditations

Continue your body, mind, spirit awareness and connection though the practice of mindful eating. Mindful eating is the process of paying attention at each and every meal. Though what we eat is vital, so too is how we eat. There are many times within our culture of busy that we choose to “eat on the run” or, we sit, scoff, and then leave (Read Celia’s article here). This way of living not only detrimental to holistic health, so to it deprives us of vital presence in relationships.

Celia will take you through what it means to mindfully eat, to truly experience presence in food, and to wholly understand what it means to enjoy the essence of sustenance. The health benefits of mindful eating are enormous - from improved vitality and digestion, weight loss, improved outcomes for diabetes type 2 patients and reduction in disordered eating habits…this retreat is for everyone.
