Should You Incorporate Yoga Into Your Wellness Regime?
Wellness is not defined simply by a body in good physical shape; it also relies on a healthy mind and soul. For thousands of years, yoga has been practised for its physical, mental and spiritual benefits.
At Chi of Life, we offer two yoga sessions per week as a part of our holistic approach to weight loss and wellbeing, providing both a physical and spiritual detox for our clients. Along with physical benefits such as increased flexibility, improved posture and lean muscle development, yoga helps to relieve stress and encourage inner peace, making it the perfect complement to our life-changing transformation program.
Unlike traditional yoga programs that focus solely on yoga as the be all and end all of health and wellbeing, Chi of Life provides a well-rounded wellness program that considers all of the factors and practices that contribute to your wellness, including:
- Nutrition
- Physical exercise
- Meditation
- Positive healing.
Our friendly and knowledgeable team, including our passionate, experienced and fully-qualified yoga instructors, Shezi and Jodi will help you on the path to strength, relaxation and empowerment during your health retreat.
