Yoga and Sustainable Living
“As I make preparation to spend some time at the Rocklyn Ashram, situated in the Wombat State Forest, already I sense the relaxation and spiritual nourishment that it will provide. The resistance of driving through the traffic to get out of the city now behind me, I allow myself to become fully present in this beautiful natural setting of fresh air, forest trees and birdsong.
In our fast paced city life there are few places where our spiritual essence is fully supported. Sure, we can attend a yoga class, which has that role, but many of us are forced to put our ‘city hat’ back on with our shoes as we leave. Spending time at Rocklyn allows us to drop all that is irrelevant and reconnect with our true selves." Kimberly
As an integral form of yoga, Satyananda Yoga offers structured retreats in yoga lifestyle, mid week intensives, meditation, relaxation and philosophy for both experienced and new yoga followers. Yogic Studies 1 & 2 modules of the Diploma of Satyananda Yoga Teacher Training are offered yearly at Rocklyn Ashram.
For less structured yoga retreats you may like to experience time out on a Personal Retreat for quality rest and rejuvenation by taking part in the ashram lifestyle yoga program. Personal retreats can be any length of time to facilitate your health and wellbeing.
1 week to 1 month Living Consciously and Yoga Lifestyle retreats provided mindfulness through the daily ashram program and twice daily group discussions. A folder and booklet is provided to follow the daily subjects of mindfulness.
Open Days and Day visits for Yoga Nidra - guided relaxation and a vegetarian lunch offer a great break and an opportunity to browse in the Ashram Book Shop, ask at Reception about what is on offer at the centre, take a walk through the Ashram gardens and forest surrounding the Ashram.
