During this retreat, participants will experientially explore the interplay of tension, stress, and anxiety as expressed in the body and mind. We will integrate vinyasa (breath-synchronized) yoga sequences (dynamic/yang) with static, introspective yoga poses grounded in breath (restorative/yin), and include periods of seated and walking meditation as a way of cultivating awareness of body and breath to bring us back to the present moment -- over and over again.
Designed for everyone who is open to exploring the mind-body connection, with an eye toward choosing what is best for your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Please plan on bringing your own yoga mat, a hand towel, and a notebook and pen.

About Nicole Bacon:
Nicole Bacon teaches mindfulness meditation and chakra vinyasa yoga, an ongoing exploration of the polarities and sensory experiences inherent in the current of breath and flow of movement. Proper application and sequencing of yoga postures linked by breath serve to increase our awareness of how our bodies and minds hold tension, anxiety and stress and ultimately determine our overall experience of a given yoga practice as well as the extent to which our practice addresses (or neglects) our individual needs and capacities. Nicole co-founded and owns a small community yoga studio, Yoga Mandala, in the heart of Winchester, MA. She has attended several retreats of her own at Karmê Chöling which she now calls her home away from home!
