Me.Retreats
by the WanderingYogi
In the place of ‘busyness’, we can lose touch with our essential nature. So many roles we play everyday– provider, partner, lover, parent, friend, work colleague. Where is me?
In our retreats, you leave behind daily life, long enough for you to relax and recharge. Long enough to have a good conversation with your heart. And walk into the space of change that you create within. It is all about you – Me.Retreats.
Wanderingyogilee scouts each location personally. Visit and explore as if I was you. I love living in Asia, so Me.retreats are in some of her special places. But she does wander, and when she finds others that speak to the immeasurables elsewhere in the world, she will let you know.
Me.Retreats always offer something unique from the culture and country where it resides. Because that is what you want.
Our current regular retreat locations: Laplapan, Ubud and Luang Prabang, Laos.
Me.Retreats are designed around the Buddhist four immeasurables:
- Karuna – compassion
- Metta – loving kindness
- Mudita – appreciative joy
- Upekkha – equanimity
Me.Retreats let you explore your inner and outer world at your own pace. Our yoga and meditation are framed with the immeasurables in mind. Each retreat always has an experienced yoga guide and a meditation expert. Sometimes they are the same person, sometimes not. Retreat locations are far enough away from the tourist hotspots yet close enough if you need to duck in and get that tourist souvenir. We always factor in time to explore the area.
And it is not all serious yoga and mung beans, we also like to have fun.
