26 Jan The Benefits of a One-Day Retreat

Summer holidays are a beautiful time of the year. But sometimes they can be busier than being at work. There are countless activities, events, meals, catch-ups, and celebrations, maybe even getaways. The list goes on. While this can be the best time of the year, it can leave us starting the New Year a little tired. On February 12th we’re running a one-day retreat at the beautiful Amarant Retreat in the Yarra Valley. It’s the perfect opportunity to re-set as the New Year kicks into full swing. What are some of the reasons we value one-day retreats?

They are easy to fit into a busy schedule

Have you wanted to go to a yoga retreat but found it hard to find the time and money? That’s one of the main reasons we love one-day yoga retreats. You get the benefits of time away, a moment to yourself, and that feeling of rejuvenation without having to get leave, babysitters, and a whole bunch of money.

They offer space and quiet to find your practice

Yoga, meditation, and breathing are all beautiful ways to heal the body, mind, and spirit. But they can be hard to weave into everyday life. Especially if you haven’t had much experience. Our one-day retreat will incorporate all three, giving you a taste of what it’s like to have a daily practice and give you a few tips and tricks to start incorporating them into your life back home.

They remind us that healthy food tastes really good

Yoga retreats often have a focus on health and nutrition. This is because when we fuel our body with healthy food, we can get more out of our practice. When we have a full day of wholesome, nourishing, and delicious food, we are reminded that healthy eating doesn’t have to feel like deprivation. And we’re reminded how good we can feel when we eat the good stuff.

They take us out of the concrete jungle and into nature

From cleaner air, to vitamin D, there are countless benefits from spending time outdoors, whether that’s near the ocean or deep in the mountains. Retreats are often held in locations away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Yarra Valley for example, gives you time in nature without having to go too far away.
