Spiritual Retreats, Happiness, Stress Management and Peace of Mind

Spiritual retreat is a great time to go within through yoga, meditation, and spiritual focus. Tomorrow I will be interviewing Gurutej a well known, and sought after kundalini yoga master and teacher. Her blog tour is being hosted at Promo 101 Virtual Blog Tours.

Well over thrity years ago I began my yoga journey. I first began my studies in yoga looking for ways to deal with stress and to keep in shape. Little did I know, at the young age of twenty-five, that yoga had many deeper benefits than just being in shape. I continued my yoga quest and began to study and practice daily yoga with tapes from Kripalu Center just outside of Boston. This daily practice transformed not only my body, but soon began to transform my mind, and my life. I studied about the body, mind and spirit, and the connection between the mind and physical disease. In 1991 I founded and directed a state-approved school and clinic of holistic health and become one of the first schools in CA to offer a state-approved Yoga Teacher certification.

Yoga has been my guide for creating a deeper connection to spirit and stimulated a kundalini awakening in my late twenties that changed my life forever. Kundalini yoga is a very powerful yoga practice that transforms stress, and creates unlimited energy for health and vitality. Follow these tips to practice awareness and deep breathing throughout your day. Breath awareness will empower you to end your day with energy for your home and family.

Commit. Make a commitment to be present throughout your day and take your reactions off auto-pilot. In order to change you must learn your stress buttons and realize how stressed you are. Each time you become aware of holding stress in your body or mind take a deep relaxing breath and learn to let go.

Visualize the most beautiful place you can remember. Feel yourself in your peaceful place in your mind. Squeeze your shoulder blades together, breath deeply again, and as you exhale allow your body to completely relax. See yourself full of energy at the end of your day having accomplished all your tasks and still full of energy for your evening at home.

Spiritual Retreats to Awaken Spiritually

Thousands of people go on spiritual retreats each year and the most popular retreats are California Retreats and our Sedona Retreats rank next. What is a Spiritual Retreat?

A spiritual retreat is a special time to break away from your life and create a deeper connection to your divine essence. Our constant busy-ness causes us to shut that connection down and creates stress. Stress can literally make you sick. Billions of dollars are spent each year on anxiety and anti-depressant medications. These medications only mask the symptoms of stress. What can you do to deal with stress and release it before you make yourself sick?

Start your day with fifteen minutes of being still. During this time visualize your day. See yourself taking short breaks throughout your day to breathe and release your stress. Take two ten minute breaks and walk the stairs or walk outside. You will return to work refreshed and able to complete more tasks in less time. By following this routine you will also arrive home feeling refreshed and ready to tackle your work projects at home. You will find yourself resting better at night with deeper rim sleep and awaking refreshed each morning. Leading a proactive life empowers you by taking action to take care of your body, mind, and spirit. Take my challenge and make this your routine for 21 days and then contact me and share your experience.
