Emaho! Jivamukti & Yin Yoga Retreat with Jennifer & Ben
Time & Location
About The Event
Emaho! Yoga proudly invites you to their third yoga retreat at Radhadesh, in the Ardennes region of Belgium, from March 31 - April 4, 2021. Located in the Chateau de Petite Somme, surrounded by unspoiled flora and fauna and long stretches of forest and countryside, Radhadesh is a wondrous place to accomplish one’s spiritual practice (Sadhana).
Jennifer and Ben had the good fortune of meeting Manu and Sita, the directors of the guest house at Radhadesh, at a Kirtan in Paris where Ben also played, and upon accepting their invitation to visit, they fell in love with the castle, the energy, the food, and even the cows that are living a peaceful life on the campus.
Join us for mindful walks in the forest, intensive Jivamukti yoga sessions in the morning, and meditation, yin, and restorative yoga in the evening. There will also be Kirtan (sacred chanting) every evening, as is customary in the castle, and a Bhakti Yoga workshop with Manu & Sita, where we will learn more about the Yoga of devotion.

About Emaho! Yoga:
Emaho is a Tibetan word that means wonderful, amazing, or miraculous. Founded by Jennifer Schmidt and Ben Beirs in 2018, Emaho! Retreats are grounded in the principle that the ordinariness of everyday life is extraordinary, and that through the practices and foundations offered at their retreats, students can become more in tune with the timeless wisdom and goodness that is waiting to be uncovered and recovered within all of us.
May it be of benefit!
