Another Super Yoga Weekend
Yoga Weekend November 29 to December
1st, 2013
For this past weekend yoga retreat, we
went to a new location, Seebeck by Vielitzsee.
I must admit, I was nervous about the
new location and how it would be.
What makes a good yoga weekend:
First: Good yoga in a nice room
by a teacher you resonate with
Second: Delicious food: meal
after meal
Third: Nice people on the
retreat
Fourth: Comfy, warm rooms
Fifth: Great quiet surrounding:
for walks, runs, or just to hang out in
I wasn't worried about the yoga: my
classes are my classes.
I wasn't worried about the people. I
knew most of them from my regular classes.
I wasn't worried about the space or the
the location. I'd visited the house in September.
What I was worried about was the food.
Normally, it is I who does the cooking.
I like to cook and I like to eat good
food. I know from past yoga weekends and from the retreats I go to,
what an integral part to the weekend the food is, so I was nervous.
But the food was delicious.
After our first dinner (Pumpkin soup,
tomato mozzarella salad, cheese, and bread) full with conversation
and laughter, I breathed a happy deep exhale and knew the weekend
was going to be fine. And it was. Meal after meal (we ate a lot as we
tend to on these weekends), we sat happily around the candlelit table
with sweet Grandma style dishes and serving spoons eating and
delighting in the food before us.
Not having to cook and having more time
to for myself and for my students was a gift. I enjoyed going for a
walk and talking yoga philosophy with one guest. I enjoyed quietly
practicing the piano listening to the animated conversation around
me. I enjoyed sitting in the cozy sitting room, drinking tea and
talking about barefoot running and the crazy crack smoking
Torontonian mayor. The yoga room is even bigger here with a perfect
place for massage to happen. We were lucky to have Julie join us
again.
So all in all Guesthaus Seeback is
great location and I look forward to returning in February.
