Therapeutic, Meditative & Restorative Yoga

We’ve been packing our whole lives, acquiring experiences, knowledge and things. Building

credentials, popularity, comfort or security. If we do this, than that; if we have that then we get

this other; if I have more than I am more..

What would happen if you unpacked some of your accumulations? What would you have room

for? How might you rebuild a corner or area of your foundation? How would that leave space

for connecting differently: to those you know, to the world at large—to yourself.

Of all the stresses of modern living on our bodies, no system is as deeply affected as the

nervous system. Commit to downregulating in this weeklong adventure into unpacking the

habit of constantly “doing”.

We will unfold into each day’s new beginning with combinations of gentle, therapeutic,

meditative, and restorative yoga , using breathwork as a foundation, to provide bookends for

leisurely excursions, incredible locally prepared meals, sound healing, wine tasting, and more….

Committing your week with Jeffrey Shoaf , Internationally Certified Yoga Therapist to dialing

down, staying present, choosing to consciously reduce screen time and replacing it with real

time…. Immerse into the Sicilian sunlight, and discard the habit of “blue light”,

Making a conscious effort to NOTICE, that’s all… each day, just NOTICE…, your breath, your

body, your nature as nature; in the culture, in these peaceful surroundings, and how it

continually, eternally offers you solace, healing, restoration, and fortification… of soul, of heart,

of mind…. Re-awaken your experience in authentic connection with friends, old and new, and

immerse in the sanity (and sanctity) of LIFE, Sicilian style.
