Description
This stay combines mid-mountain hikes in the beautiful Vercors countryside and the practice of Hatha yoga (asanas, pranayama, relaxation, meditation, chanting and reading). These practices complement each other, encouraging greater presence in the moment, in oneself and in the body, welcoming it as it is. Times for sharing will alternate with times for yourself in this environment conducive to calm and relaxation.
I'll lead you on hikes adapted to the group (maximum altitude difference of 500 meters) in the splendid Vercors massif. I'll introduce you to other types of walking to help you find your own rhythm and free your breath. Your senses will open up to connect with the elements and your surroundings.
Throughout your stay, Nathalie will guide you in the practice of yoga and meditation, as well as other mindfulness practices (meditative walking, sound relaxation, mandalas, mantra chanting, etc.). This practice hinges on movement, breath, stillness and silence to listen to and encounter our inner spaces.
We'll both be delighted to share our disciplines with you, in a spirit of joy and good humor.
Our host, Jean Paul, will make your stay as pleasant as possible with his warm welcome and simple, tasty food.

- a hiking and yoga stay in the Diois region,
