Tantra and Laughter Yoga Retreat
Details
This event is for women and couples.
Tantra is the Royal Path of Yoga. It is a process of awakening, flowering, self discovery and self-empowerment. It leads to deeper states of power, love and ecstasy within oneself.
When we laugh there is a chemical reaction in our bodies - we produce endorphins (happy hormones) and reduce cortisol (stress hormones). Laughter connects us to other people.
Laughter is also a good workout - research shows that 1 min of hearty laughter equals to 10mins of jogging!
Whether you are new to this or experienced, you are welcome - so come and enjoy yourself!
