and in a very good mood for the whole day.
With more advanced yoga techniques (pranayama, yoga nidra and meditation) you will have
opportunity to go deeper and become more conscious of all your being. This is the way to
get rid not only of physical, but also mental and emotional tensions, that are blocking the
natural flow of vital energy (prana). Charging ourself with new vital energy you will become more healthier with clear thoughts and joyful and loving feelings!
YOGA TEACHER
Dear friends, I am Sandra and I will lead you through yoga practice. Many years I was working in the healthcare institutions, first as physiotherapist, then healing through
shiatsu, craniosacral therapy and many other methods.
My wish to understand better the cause of the pain and the complex body-mind-soul connections bring me to yoga, which became my biggest love and the source of all the
answers. I am practicing yoga 17 years and teaching more than 12 years. As I was going deeper in my yoga practice and through the guidance and blessings of my Guruji (Paramhans Sri Swami Maheshwarananda) I realized that, with the correct yoga practice and perseverance, we can heal ourselves.
I am a „Yoga in daily Life“ teacher, which is a system given to us from our living master that contains techniques of hatha yoga, raja yoga, karma yoga, bhakti yoga, kundalini yoga and gyana yoga. Yoga is an immense treasure of knowledge and practices which can help us to become more conscious and understand better how we are and who we are. Through this we
can find out our hidden patterns that cause our sufferings and physical problems.
I wish you all to fall in love with yoga, because it is the way to become more healthy and happy.
I am happy to meet you and we may enjoy practicing yoga together.

About Ivona
Dear friends, my name is Ivona (but you can call me by my spiritual name – Hemwati).
During the retreat, I will be your cook and Ayurveda teacher. Over the last 25 years, my life was all about yoga and a healthy lifestyle. I've been practicing Yoga in Daily Life since 1998., and in the year 2009. I became a certified yoga teacher. In 2005. I have started a three-year study to become Ayurveda Practitioner and got my diploma in 2008. Ever since I've been leading numerous yoga lasses and held more than 300 different ayurvedic vegetarian and vegan workshops. I have cooked for and led a kitchen team at many spiritual retreats, which sometimes counted thousand participants. I look forward to meeting you and presenting to you the beautiful things Ayurveda has for us all – living simply, in tune with nature and it's rhythms.
