Life As An Offering: Jivamukti Yoga Retreat

May 23rd - May 29th, 2026 • Valenza, Italy

The Sanskrit term 'sādhana' means a dedicated, disciplined, and consistent practice. It is a means of achieving a deeper connection with the Self and the universe. It’s essentially the process of moving toward our highest potential. Having a yogic sādhana is an ongoing practice that helps us to embody presence, discipline, and awareness in everything we do. 

During this retreat with Gunnhildur and Sheila you will dive deeply into yogic practices such as asana (physical postures), pranayama (breath control), meditation, chanting and mindful living.

Sādhana is our daily commitment, a way of cultivating mindfulness, inner strength, and spiritual awareness.

"The real yoga is what you do with your life, how you conduct yourself in your relationships. It’s not just about being able to stand on your head; it’s about being able to stand on your own two feet and walk through the world with integrity, compassion, and grace." 

- David Life
