4 Days Yoga and create the life you want through reprogramming your subconscious mind (from $399)
Yoga style: Hatha Vinyasa - Starting gentle, Getting active and slowing down towards the end (classes)
Active and sitting meditation: First we like to share a deeper understanding of meditation to then explore its practice
This powerful tool called energy psycolgy to help you reprogram your subconscious mind: The subconscious mind learns in a different way. I could read a bunch of self-help books, and score 100 on the self-help test with my conscious mind, but will my life change? nope. It will be the same as awalys, because 95% percent of my daily behaviour is still coming from flawed subconscious programming.
We use energy psycology to reprogram our beliefs fast.
Breathwork has the power to peel back the many layers of your psyche, revealing your subconscious meta-programming. These are hardwired beliefs, habits and imprints that have shaped your future and world view since birth. Through special breathing exercises combined with hypnotic suggestion, that is The Awakening ritual, you can reimprint the subconscious operating system with a new more empowered set of habits and beliefs that will lead to your eventual liberation.
Hike: The second day we explore an ancient non-touristic site where we walk to a truly majestic place (3.5hrs walk up the mountain) long but worth it. We begin early in the morning and spend the day in the mountain.
This is an offer for the key to your inner temple. When the mind is recharged, it has the willpower to stop the negative patterns of the impure mind. When you emerge, you will feel recharged and refreshed, ready to take on all your responsibilities with greater focus and joy. You will return to your life more grounded, more centered, and a better observer of your own life.
7 days Yoga Plant Medicine Retreat (Investment: $749)
This retreat is very similar to the 4 days one only difference is the amount of days and including the plant medicine journey.
These burdens have a more solid manifestation at the corporal level. Ayahuasca allows you to perform a cleansing at a physical level of these feelings lodged in the body and at a psychic level allows the body and spirit to perform a cleansing, change life habits, and understand the meaning of your actions and the true motives hidden behind reason. In this contemporary society, you are constantly subjected to tensions, frustrations, traumas, pains, and work pressures, so constantly that you can no longer remember any other way of feeling.
Ayahuasca allows you to have that intense moment of reflection and to let go of that burden. It gives you the courage to see yourself naked, defenseless, and sensitive. Join Yogaretreatperu for a journey of transformation and self-discovery in a safe, compassionate, and supportive setting where each one can revitalize and harmonize. Their job is to provide the participants with an authentic shamanic experience. You are invited to give yourself the space to look within and experience it from a different perspective with the help of plant medicine.
This shamanic journey is something to not take lightly as it is potent and highly revealing. It is a process of self-surrender and enquiring deep within oneself. Yoga Retreat Peru has found a symbiotic blend of ancient indigenous wisdom and yogic teachings to guide you on this path of transformation and integration. The objective of the program is to go deeper into understanding plant medicine work. The ceremony is held in a sacred place up in the mountains in a beautiful temple and warmed by a fire and a comfortable setting.
Give yourself the space to reconnect and recharge
We invite you to a especial journey the cave of your heart where everything gets clear and joyful.
There is one daily yoga lesson, and a typical day during this retreat will consist of waking up to connect with your body through yoga and starting the day with intention and gratitude.
%There will be invigorating breathing exercises to prepare the body for meditation and let the mind come back to stillness. Relaxing through sound and body awareness, then nourish the body with a delicious Sattvic breakfast.
%During the retreat, you will enjoy a journey crafted from years of experience running retreats that people truly enjoyed and who have left the retreat inspired and recharged.
%There will be daily yoga asana focused on alignment, dynamic movement, meditation practice, deep relaxation with sounds, breathing exercises, cacao brew (heart opener), and different workshops and ceremonies.
Price $399 (all inclusive)

The main goal of the technique of Breathwork is to correct your breathing so that your normal rate of breathing at rest is 3-4 breaths per minute. On average people breathe 10+ breaths per minute. Very sick or highly stressed people breathe over 20+ breaths per minute. This can help protect against disease, balance your emotions and help you be more in the flow.
When you are overly emotionally stressed, due to the burdens of everyday living, your body switches on the same physiological response as when under physical stress i.e when doing strenuous physical exercise. Your oxygen demand goes up and you breathe faster and more shallow, even though you do not need to consume as much oxygen as if doing exercise.
If you imagine you have a fire in your body, just like a normal fire, oxygen is needed for the fire to burn, however too much oxygen causes the fire to burn too bright, causing damage, too little oxygen, the fire doesn’t burn at all, and no energy created. So just the right amount of oxygen is required.
Just like metal that rusts in the presence of oxygen, so does your body, and its called oxidative stress. So oxygen control is necessary to prevent oxidative stress in the body. Antioxidants in food is necessary to prevent oxidative stress that causes free radical damage to cells. So correct breathing means less food is required.
Therefore being able to breathe less, manage stress and still function efficiently is the goal of Soma Breath.
Becoming highly efficient at using oxygen means you become highly efficient at creating energy and therefore you become healthier, stronger and happier as a result.
Breathwork also has the power to peel back the many layers of your psyche, revealing your subconscious meta-programming. These are hardwired beliefs, habits and imprints that have shaped your future and world view since birth. Through special breathing exercises combined with hypnotic suggestion, that is The Awakening ritual, you can reimprint the subconscious operating system with a new more empowered set of habits and beliefs that will lead to your eventual liberation and un-robotization.
Your breath shall set you free…

Book Yoga Retreat Reviews
I really liked the yoga and meditation and ceremony exercises, I felt like the instructor made a big effort to bond the group which was important! there was a great group of people on my retreat which also made it better. The facilities and location was beautiful, we had a sauna and a Molokai and we were surrounded by gorgeous mountains.

The yoga classes were great, the food was very healthy and tasty, and we had a great, diverse group of people from the US, Germany, Holland, France, and the UK. I got my own room even though I paid to share a room... although I wouldn't have minded the company, either. The house was cool. It had a wood fire sauna that was lit a few times, a hammock, a "temple" cabin where we did the Ayahuasca ceremonies, and a nice outdoor patio where we are a few of our meals.
Miou Ferri
The place of the retreat is wonderful, right in the middle of the sacred valley, surrounded by mountains and beautiful nature. Very clean and spacious rooms. And the food is lovely, very healty, and created with love. There’s a big garden down to the river, where you can sit quietly if you want to be alone for a while. There was a nice energy in the group and with Gianni and the other helpers, doing nice activities like hiking up to a waterfall, discovering little towns, enjoying a sweat lodge and cristal bowl sound healing. And yoga off course, gentle yoga suitable for beginners as well as more advanced practisers. I will recommend for sure and will go back one day!

The role of the mind
You might have noticed that the mind is a compulsive commentator, forever poking its nose into all that we experience.
The mind rarely gives us a break, other than when we are asleep. Yes, it is certainly helpful a lot of the time but the problem comes when the mind takes over; when, rather than us using the mind, we are being run by it. Think you are master of your mind? Try this small experiment….
With your eyes closed, for the next few moments stop your mind. Don’t allow one thought to intrude. Put your total attention into finding peace.
The odds are that the more you tried to put the brakes on your mind, the busier and noisier it became. That’s not because it is impossible to be serene but because trying to be peaceful by stopping the mind is not the best way to go about it. Suppressing your thoughts and feelings only creates a fight within you. Here are four suggestions that can be helpful….
Understand the mechanics of the mind
To know inner peace we need to move into a different region from the mental – that of consciousness. In other words: We need to move from thinking to being. For that, we don’t need to control, ‘tame’ or stop the mind but to understand it and familiarise ourselves with its nature.
Watch your own mind for a few moments and you’ll see that it’s a conveyer belt of ideas, theories, arguments, prejudices, doubts, beliefs, dreams, imagination, aspirations and the whole gamut of feelings, from joy to despair.
In some respects the mind is like a child. It’s always on the go. It’s also inquisitive; constantly wanting your attention and to be part of whatever you are doing. If you are dealing with a very active child, as an intelligent parent you don’t try to stop its energy. You understand that its constant movement and its curiosity are natural but that they can be channelled into some form of creativity or physical activity – even if that’s just running around the house. You can do something similar when your mind is on overdrive
Redirect the energy that fuels the mind
Rather than trying to suppress the constant stream of thoughts, redirect the energy that fuels them.
For example, you may be ruminating about an important interview or feeling anxious about some test results. When you become aware of how manic your mind is only making the situation worse, find a more useful outlet for some of the energy – for example, running, swimming, playing tennis or dancing. Even cleaning can provide an effective and practical release of mental and physical tension.
If your mind is active but your physical energy is very low, if you are in pain or confined to bed, you will need another option. The method known as ‘Gibberish’ is simple and effective. It is speaking nonsense sounds and may be something you remember from childhood. (If there is a child in your immediate life invite them to gibber with you: children love it and also make great teachers!) This is how it goes….
Find a place and time where you will be undisturbed (and where you won’t disturb others) for 10 minutes or longer. Now, with your eyes closed (so nothing outer will distract) just start making nonsense sounds – literally, gibberish. It’s like speaking a language that you don’t know; without any conscious effort using words that you are making up as you go along. Let the sounds come out in a continuous stream and make them as loud as you want to. (If there are other people in the same room as you – patients or their visitors – just do it under your breath.)
At the same time, if your health and where you are allows it, move your body about: wave your arms, stamp your feet, and move your head about. Actively involve your facial muscles too: exaggerating your normal expressions, grimacing and contorting your face in whatever way you can.
You may feel a little self-conscious at first but once you get into the swing of it that can be forgotten as you start to enjoy it. Gibberish is really just a form of consciously letting off steam, without upsetting anyone, and it’s very freeing.
Follow Gibberish with sitting or lying down, still with your eyes closed. You’ll find that your mind is more silent than usual and that you feel relaxed and peaceful.
Befriend your mind
The mind is used to orchestrating your life and meditating is a voluntarily move away from its influence. So, whenever you are about to meditate – and this is particularly helpful when just starting out – gently let the mind know that it can take a rest. And reassure it that you will return to it later. (We all need to know we’re needed!) You’ll find that your body and mind will benefit from that break. See below: Using the mind to go beyond the mind
Mindfulness: the power from within
Another key to not letting the mind take you over is simply to watch it, to observe it (known as mindfulness or ‘witnessing’): then you’ll become aware that that constant stream of thoughts and feelings is separate from you. It is like a river flowing by which you can observe, just as you might sit by a river and notice the flotsam that is carried along in it.
In this way you are not suppressing your thoughts but you are also not getting engaged in them. Some people say ‘I want to meditate but my mind is so strong!’ In fact it’s just our getting engaged with it that creates that feeling and which energises thoughts. Withdraw your cooperation and you disempower them. Not only do we get engaged with thoughts we become identified with them, so much so that we can’t imagine being without the mind. And the reality is: We can only really be without it!
*
By and by, as you continue practising mindfulness you’ll have the felt understanding that you are not your thoughts: they are manufactured by your mind but they are not you. You are the subject, the observer: your thoughts or feelings are the object, that which is observed.
Once you’ve had this realisation – that you are not your thoughts (nor any of your feelings or physical sensations) – you do not need to be a victim of your mind or of your body anymore.
For more on mindfulness, see also ‘‘What’s the difference between consciousness, watching, mindfulness and awareness?’’.

Using the mind to go beyond the mind
We’ve looked at four different ways to prevent the mind getting in the way of finding inner peacefulness: by understanding its nature, befriending it, releasing or redirecting the energy that feeds it, and by impassively watching it.
Given that it is so resourceful, can the mind also play a positive role in meditation?
The short answer is yes! The mind is not necessarily antagonistic to meditation; in fact some methods utilise the mind to take us into meditation. For example, visualisation methods use our power of imagination. And there are other methods use chanting or counting.
The mind can also be an ally when we are just starting a meditation practice. For example, you decide to start meditating for 40 minutes each morning. As that time comes closer your mind finds reasons why not to: you can’t afford the time, you are too restless, and so on. Rather than giving into your mind or trying to ignore it, get it on your side.
For example, you might say to it: ‘How about if I commit to 5 minutes each morning for the first week?’ The mind will probably cooperate because ‘What’s 5 minutes, after all?’ After that week, perhaps you reach another agreement with the mind: You propose doubling your meditation time. Again, the mind feels taken into account and so you continue to up the length of your meditation until you reach the 40 minutes you were originally planning on.
Keeping Motivated
The mind can be helpful, too, in keeping your motivated.
For example, if your resolve to meditate today falters, remind yourself how good you felt after yesterday’s sitting. Remind yourself that then, too, you’d wavered, but you’d gone ahead anyway and meditated, and you were so glad you did.
You can also recall other instances in your life when you had started a new discipline, such as going to the gym or eating a healthy diet, and were able to maintain it in spite of your mind trying to tempt you off track.
