Soul Detox yoga holiday in Turkey ~ Yoga ~ Meditation ~ Sound Healing ~ Culture ~ Nature ~ Discovery ~ Stillness ~ Dancing ~ Singing ~ Relaxation ~ Bodywork ~ Reflection ~ Inspiration ~
A real treat for your body, mind and spirit! Join us for our yoga, meditation and sound healing retreat on the stunning Turkish Riviera. A chance to escape day-to-day life, press the pause button and reconnect with your inner Self again in the company of Mother Nature and great friends (old and new). At the same time, explore the rich culture inherited by the Persian, Greek and Roman times and enjoy the Turkish hospitality.
Our intention is to create a deeply restful experience filled with beautiful practices for relaxing the body, silencing the mind and helping you return to your natural Self. We will draw from different practices and techniques - yoga, meditation, healing sounds, pranayama, massage, chanting, dance, Qi Gong, enquiry and contemplation. Go back home with an open heart space and feeling grounded within yourself. Huzur Vadisi is the perfect setting with its peaceful energy running through it (Huzur Vadisi means Peace Valley). Set in the mountains above Göcek, you are surrounded by beautiful nature. Everywhere you look, you either see parts of old ruins, ancient olive trees, vines entwining around the shala, or exotic flowers blossoming. We do our practice in a beautiful shala surrounded by bird song. We start each day with a meditation and yoga practice. The slow yoga classes offer a playful and in-depth exploration of movement and individual postures with the aim of finding more space in the body and accessing deeper strength and a more congruent alignment. As we bring the awareness to what is happening inside and where we are in the present moment, the body is encouraged to release where it is holding. An invitation to play with gravity, free the breath and find space in the body to allow it to move to its full potential. In the afternoons we will have different workshops. Some more yoga and movement, and lots of chanting to activate our expressive nature, healing sounds to deeply relax and re-calibrate, Thai Yoga Massage to reconnect and open up, meditation and breathing to go deeper - all beautiful practices to help us slow down, connect to the earth as well as the high vibrations of summer. During this time of the year, we can really tap into our inner Joy and allow our true Self to express itself. On some of the evenings we will gather for some more singing and celebration under the night sky. On one of the days, we will take a "day off" for a chance to enjoy a boat trip around the spectacular islands along the Göcek coastline. This is optional, and if you prefer you can also chill out on the beach, go for a longer walk, relax in a hammock... |

About Huzur VadisiHuzur Vadisi is Turkey’s longest established and best-known yoga holiday retreat. Established in 1993, it was the first centre of its kind in Turkey. In a secluded mountain valley, surrounded by pine forest, the yurt accommodation nestles amid olive and fig groves. It is an oasis of peace in natural surroundings, simple and rustic with shared bathroom facilities, yet comfortable and beautifully maintained with all conveniences in the yurts.
At night the valley is dark, revealing all the beauty of the night sky. At full moon it is truly magical to see the forest and valley bathed in moonlight. Huzur Vadisi’s setting brings a deep connection with the natural world that immeasurably enhances the benefits of yoga practice. The combination of great yoga, stunning unspoiled location, welcoming experienced staff and legendary food creates an experience for which teachers and guests have been returning year after year. Our welcoming and experienced host, Tanfer, one of the founding partners of Huzur Vadisi, is also a Yoga Academy trained teacher.
Accommodation
We will sleep in stunning boutique yurts dotted around the valley. At night you can see the stars from your bed through the ‘eye of heaven’ at the apex of the yurts. Single, double/twin and triple options available. The Food Enjoy fresh vegetables and fruit during all our truly delicious meals. It is the food as much as the location, as well as the hospitality, that make this the perfect place to relax and find some peace. The food at Huzur Vadisi is so famous, that they even made a cook book! There is a complimentary tea and coffee table, also with a selection of herb teas and biscuits, which is freely available to help yourself throughout the day. |
