Mini Fall Retreat
A Multidimensional Journey Through the 5 Koshas
Join Gina for this multidimensional experience that will create ease within you as you enter this more hectic time of year at a Zen-like setting in Montgomery Township, NJ (not too far from Hope Yoga).
Sherry, (Gina’s good friend, yoga teacher and ally in all things healing), will be assisting her in this retreat providing her unique and wonderful gifts to further deepen your retreat experience.
In the Yoga tradition, there are 5 layers that make up your entire being. These layers are called ‘Koshas’. Kosha translates to the word, sheath.
These 5 layers have an outermost layer being the physical layer and an innermost layer being the spirit or soul. Then there are 3 more layers in between those layers. Luckily, you don’t need to know their names, or anything about them for this mini-retreat (though Gina will explain a little about them). :)
Through Yoga, breath work, self-massage, Yoga Nidra, sound healing, meditation, aromatherapy tips and treatment, hands-on adjustments to deepen your experience & more, you will take a journey through each vibrational layer. There will also be a crystal component to this retreat.
You will leave with feelings of renewal, inner strength, ease, and peacefulness.
