Where will be going this time??? It's a surprise for now, but in the meantime you can catch up on the details from Ritual's Mindful Retreat last November in Elora Ontario. This event sold out in less then 24 hours and we had a BLAST! Have a bit of FOMO? Watch for details for our JULY 2023 RETREAT to drop very soon!
Mindfulness is the art and practice of being in the “here and now” – in this present moment. The ability to be fully present has a host of benefits however, in our digitally and technologically connected world we are actually more disconnected than ever from what is truly happening within the depths of our selves.
Over the course of this experiential weekend we will immerse ourselves in the mental, emotional, interpersonal, and physical benefits of mindful living, ultimately bringing home tools to incorporate this important practice into our own everyday lives.
Nghi is one of Ritual Yogahouse’s Senior Yoga Teachers with over 10 years of experience teaching in the Brampton area.
The origins of Mindfulness can be traced back to ANCIENT EASTERN cultures, and on Saturday morning Nghi will introduce us to some of these philosophies with the Taoist practice of connecting with nature through Forest Bathing and the ancient Chinese movement practice of Qi Gong
