Dear Yogis,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
Till 24th I was in Gurgaon / Delhi...
On 23rd visited Gurgaon Centre. and on 25th returned to Baroda.
Regarding Our Visit to Dol Ashram:
* Exceeded all expectations.
* The food in the ashram was amazing & very healthy.
* I can barely describe it in words. The whole week was such an invigorating refreshing, unique experience. - surrounded by nature, beautiful people and such positive, uplifting energy.
* This was my first yoga retreat, and the first time I've had a yoga teacher for a while. The yoga practice really provided an excellent opportunity to correct my yoga poses, as well as giving me the support and confidence to try postures I had always believed myself unable to do! I felt supported, in learning the basics and trust in the teacher in improving. This helped me build confidence and work through my fears... about what I was capable of. The yoga classes were great - a real work out for the body, now feel very confident to continue it at home. I am particularly interested in knowing the benefits of each poses, their alignment and their impact on the mind.
* I felt amazing after the 5 days of good, healthy, quality food and the yoga classes. I’m like OMG! I am trying to do halasan & headstand and yes, I was very scared + managed to overcome this fear - thanks to Mr. Arun. I hope I will be able to do headstand in a week or so at Baroda.
* I hope wonderful instruction from swamiji & Mr. arun will set me on my yoga journey feeling confident and curious.
* This retreat opened my body, soul and mind. At first I was a little hesitant but once I settled, I felt very much at peace. The yoga opened my body and I felt a new sense of strength and flexibility enter my muscles. The meditation helped to calm my mind and I learn a few techniques to help flush out negative thoughts.
* There were lots of stories, laughter and tears, and I feel sure we will keep in touch though our photos and emails. I will always remember this week the people, places and experience, as it being one of the best of my life.
Thank you so much, I am humbled and grateful to Swamiji , Mr. Arun, Mr. Shekhar and Our team of all yogis for the love & this opportunity given to me.
With Love to all & humble Pranams to Swamiji.
