Blissful Yoga in Baja with Terry!

Blissful Yoga in Baja!
Baja, Mexico Retreat with Terry Gardner

We will practice our blissful style of yoga with views of the ocean, and the mountains. Two 90-minute classes per day will deeply relax your body and mind while your stress melts away. Spend your free time with a walk on the pristine beach, a swim in the pool, a soak in the hot tub, or a massage. Return home renewed and refreshed.

This is Svaroopa®️yoga. The key principle of “core opening” helps facilitate an inner sense of peace and personal transformation.

Svaroopa®️ is an effective, safe, and reliable system of yoga that brings you into the bliss of your own being, creating a deep release of tension held in the body and the mind. With every 90-minute class, we begin and end in Shavasana with a guided relaxation, followed by 5 minutes of a slow and quiet Ujjayi breathing practice. This begins the decompression of your body, spine, and your mind. Transitioning from action to non-action brings you into a deeper state of awareness. The poses begin with a warm-up/marker pose, followed by poses targeting each section of the spine beginning at the tailbone, through the sacrum, waist, rib cage, and neck in that order. The marker pose done again before the final Shavasana will feel very different, giving you an understanding of what the class did to change your body. Poses are done slowly in precise alignment using props, such as blankets and blocks to meet your body right where it is at this time. By the end of the class, you will be aware of the differences in your body, your mind, and more.

This is a profound practice designed to help you deepen your awareness within and bring that outside into your life.

The word Svaroopa comes from the third yoga sutra, “ when the mind becomes still, you abide in the bliss of your true nature”. Svaroopa, the bliss of your true nature.

Accommodations

Enjoy the beauty of Baja, Mexico at this gorgeous oceanfront center. Walk for miles or ride horseback on the spectacular beaches, snorkel in the Sea of Cortez, or relax by the pool, in the hot tub, or in a hammock. Practice yoga in the two unique studios with lovely bamboo floors and expansive windows looking out to the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra de la Laguna mountains. Dine on delicious organic Mexican and international cuisine as you watch the sunset over the Pacific. Then fall asleep to the calming sound of waves on pillow-top mattresses and organic sheets. Immerse yourself in nature with trails to view the diverse flora and fauna and the possibility of seeing hatching sea turtles or humpback whales. Relax and renew your mind and body at this luxurious center with golden sand beaches in the south of Baja, Mexico. The beach directly in front of the property is a gorgeous walking beach. During most of the year, the waves on the beach are too rough for swimming. Groups enjoy swimming in the beautiful pools at the retreat center or by taking a short trip to one of the gentler swimming beaches.

The center features luxurious rooms – with their clean lines and understated elegance – you will drift off into a deep sleep listening to the sound of the crashing waves as they break on the beach. All rooms have views of the ocean and the gardens.

The rooms have polished travertine floors, pillow-top mattresses with 300 thread-count organic sheets, beautiful, custom-crafted teak and rattan furniture, and travertine bathrooms with organic bath towels.

Often for less than $150, you can purchase a travel insurance policy and be protected in the event that you need to make a change or need to be covered financially prior to or during your trip.
