ACTIVE | Gogashala Yoga Holidays & UK Yoga Weekend Breaks

Many of you will be aware that I changed my life after going on a solo yoga and meditation retreat in Egypt a few years ago. Then, after breaking my back in a recent snowboarding accident, I turned to Yoga again to help with my rehabilitation. I’m an advocate of both meditation and yoga, not only for its physical health benefits, but for the incredible effect it has on the mind.

I spent most of my twenties battling depression, which I finally beat with some help from meditation and mindfulness, and whilst Yoga is not a magic wand, it’s been transformative for me.

When I found out about Gogashala Yoga holidays, I wanted to let you know about them too, and I urge anyone thinking of going on a yoga holiday to do it!

About Gogashala

Gogashala have worked diligently over the last decade to find fantastic yoga teachers and beautiful locations throughout the world to create exciting and inspiring yoga holidays.

Their aim is to make yoga accessible and fun for everyone – not just those in the know and everyone from total beginners to old pros, are welcome to join them.

Yoga is all about finding a connection between your mind and your body, your inner life and your outer life, you and the world around you. Camping, with nature all around you and that feeling of peace, escape, simplicity, is pretty similar in that way. Camping and yoga – the perfect partnership. Spend a night in nothing but a sleeping bag on a roll mat, and you’ll need a good stretch in the morning!
