The Science of Yoga & Meditation

This 3 day personal and professional development retreat is for those who wish to know more about the science behind yoga and meditation, how and why it works on our brain, emotions and physiology.  Yoga teachers, health professionals and educators will receive knowledge and inspiration to use in a professional capacity.  This event is not just limited to those with a yogic profession, it is also perfect for anyone wishing to deepen their knowledge on the benefits of yogic practises evident within neuroscientific research. 

The three day retreat option will allow you to fully immerse in yoga, meditation and relaxation practices in a peaceful and stunning natural environment whilst also examining the brain processes that underlie our emotions and daily experiences.  Inspirational speaker, Dr.  Maarten Immink, cognitive nuero-scientist and a trained yoga teacher, shares the science behind the powerful and transformative influence of yoga and meditation on your brain and emotions.

There is also the option to attend a day workshop and delve into the topic of your choice through theory and practice.  We are not offering transport to and from the daily workshops.
