We have returned from beautiful Morocco where we were running Marrakech Yoga Retreat Experience 2025 ๐ง๐๐ฒ๐ฆ
We have immersed ourselves in an immense beauty of the country, which has so much to offer; incredible culture, stunning landscapes and architecture, colourful bazaars, majestic palaces, but finally the friendly people of Morocco who are known for their warm hospitality and their kind and welcoming nature, are what made our experience truly special.
We have explored Berber culture in Atlas Mountains, enjoyed home hosted cooking class with Moroccan family, flew at dawn in balloon 1000m above Agafay desert, saw how Argan oil is made, took pleasure in hamam treatment, laughed together a lot, had meaningful conversations, but most of all we have embraced a new culture with all its diversity, which broadened our perspective, enhanced our adaptability, and enriched our life in countless ways.
My heart is filled with love and gratitude for my students who accompanied me on this journey, which was not only an outer one, but also a deep inner journey in which we were all invited to explore ourselves, and to journey towards ourselves to get to know ourselves better ๐
Inner journey is never an easy one, it takes bravery and diligence, but it is also the most rewarding one - a lot was happening inside of each and everyone of us, including myself, as we were confronted with ourselves and with each other, and it has taught us importance of acceptance of ourselves just the way we were at those moments, as well as acceptance of our differences. It has planted seeds for a further growth, since nothing ever goes away until we internalise it fully.
Yoga teaches us no judgment and no expectations (expectations will always result in dejections!), and we should be practising these qualities daily in order to surpass ourselves ๐๐ป
Namaste with unconditional love towards you all ๐๐ป๐ฅฐ๐ค
