Yoga Retreat in Aruba with Jim Bennitt

March 17-24, 2012
Manchebo Beach Resort & Spa

This unique retreat with Jim will focus on deepening your understanding of yoga, tantra and Ayurveda. We will begin this sacred gathering with a brief discussion and lecture on the four desires according to tantra that help us to lead a more fulfilling life in the material world as well as the spiritual. Next we will form a sankalpa or resolution to help us identify and fulfill our deepest driving desire.

Throughout the week we will practice yoga twice a day. The morning session will be a vigorous class to help us wake, detox and prepare for the day. The afternoon will be on the more subtle side focusing on breathwork, meditation and specific practices to help us toward achieving our sankalpa.

A light breakfast will be available daily before the morning yoga session featuring fresh fruits, yogurts, breads, juices, coffee and tea. Following the moring yoga session a substantial, healthy brunch will be served. The Welcome and Farewell dinners (both three course and including a glass of wine) will give us the opportunity to dine as a group while the other nights you can choose to eat at one of the two restaurants at Manchebo or venture out and try one of the other fabulous restaurants Aruba has to offer!

The concierge staff will be happy to assist you in planning other activities for you during your stay such as island touring, shopping, scuba diving, sailing, playing golf, snorkeling or enjoying rejuvenating spa treatments at the exotic outdoor Caribbean-Balinese spa facility.

This will truly be a life-changing retreat. Expect to leave more relaxed, invigorated and with more mental clarity on how to live your life to the fullest.
