Autumn Equinox Women's Yoga Retreat


  • Bala Brook Residential Centre Devon (map)

Join Liz for a wonderful women's weekend in the beautful Bala Brook nestled in its own valley on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park

It will be at the Autumn Equinox, a special time in the year to look back at what we have achieved/experienced in the summer months and sow our seeds of intentions as we enter the darker more reflective months of the year.

Liz will teach a combination of energising Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga in the mornings combined with therapeutic practices of Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra. We will draw on the feminine aspects of yoga and how these may support us in our daily lives.

This retreat will be from Thursday 4pm until Sunday Midday to allow plenty of time for yoga, walking, adventures in the countryside, relaxing with your favourite book, fires and storytelling under the stars.
Included in the cost is :

- Three nights’ accommodation at Bala Brook Retreat Centre 

- Home cooked vegetarian & vegan meals from Thursday evening dinner to Sunday brunch

- All Yoga & Meditation Classes

- Sound bath Session & Evening Circle 

- Massage treatments (optional - to be booked additionally)


About Bala Brook
Bala Brook is nestled in its own valley on the southern edge of Dartmoor National Park.

The retreat centre is located beside a fast-flowing moorland brook and surrounded by nature. It offers privacy and tranquillity on retreat in a beautiful and nurturing setting.

The sound of rushing water, the changing of the seasons, the benign presence of the trees, the proximity of the moor, the everchanging colours, the darkness at night, the deep silence – all of this is hugely beneficial to mind, body and spirit.
