How much Light can we bring into a short few hours of the darkest day of the calendar year?

WINTER SOLSTICE WELLNESS EVENT

Saturday 21st December 10:15am - 1:45pm

Benk + Bo, 4-6 Gravel Lane, London E1 7AW

The London Day Retreat has been designed to enrich your physical and mental wellbeing, deepen your yoga practice and nutritional knowledge.

Saturday Retreat Experience

Feel fantastic - join us for an extra special day of yoga and conversation that is healthy for both your body and mind. Yoga for all levels, postures that will rejuvenate you, challenge your body to help you gain strength, and relieve full-body tension. You will experience a wide selection of mediation and Hatha yoga styles this weekend including but not limited to Ashtanga, Yin, Restorative, Facial Yoga and Yoga Rest (Nidra).

The event has been designed to restore your mindset and your wellbeing just in time before Christmas. If you want a transformative experience and can organise your diary to get to London then this weekend will increase your energy levels, reduce stress and lighten the load both mentally and physically.

3 yoga sessions per day, each experience very different in terms of what energy you will put in and also how much you will gain. This weekend is for your relaxation and rejuvenation, and to support you should you wish to start a cleanse or detox program, for example clean eating or juicing. You might just need some time to replenish just ahead of the peak of Christmas. You will naturally de-stress, rejuvenate, cleanse and challenge your body as you mix with like-minded people. Expect to meet plenty of new friends who will join you and support you on this journey, as well as someone to remain accountable to!

Detach from the routine of everyday life, and the everyday weekend.

3x hours of yoga + nutrition in a beautiful studio hidden away in the heart of the Square Mile.

All sessions led by Kenneth Ryan and Victoria Adams.

• Nutritional Planning Talk

• Daily Meditation

• Varied styles of Yoga (including Facial Yoga) that will at times challenge you, and in other moments fully rejuvenate and inspire deep relaxation that is suitable for all levels

We expect places to book up quickly so please, to avoid disappointment, reserve your place now

YOGA, THE 5 TIBETANS, RESTORATIVE YOGA, DHARMA YOGA + NUTRITION

This is your chance to experience yoga you will love and nutritional information you never knew, all in London: you will move your body, rest your body, and learn how to feed your body. Four classes: a cleansing Hatha yoga class aiding the detoxification process, The 5 Tibetans, a deeply restorative sequence with Ken followed by Yin Yoga in the afternoon and a nutritional session with Victoria. The Day has been designed to restore your mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing, and offer you as much of the good stuff we can possibly pack into your day so that you go back home (or Christmas shopping!) feeling the glow that yoga and good conversation creates. This is how healing your body from the inside out is possible.

If you want a transformative experience with the support of two experienced yogis, then this is the day for you.

What have people said?

”I’ve been eating so well and moving lots, feeling fantastic and heading slowly but surely to my goal of a healthy weight and sustainable wellbeing, but quite worried about the next weeks with lots of things coming up, that’s just what I need to keep making the right decisions for me.”

“Genius... this time of year is a crazy mixed up one and seems to get more that way for me each year... a lot of it for me being about the closing in and lack of daylight which then brings on comfort imbibing and scoffing... so thank you for this... THANK YOU !”

“My weight is something I have always struggled with. It has affected every aspect of my life. I yo-yoed for so many years. On top of that I was diagnosed with IBS and endometriosis which just made everything worse. The only way I had ever been able to lose weight was to juice or starve myself. Victoria made me realise that my nutrition and emotional well being went hand in hand. In the past I would set myself goals that were near on impossible to keep and berate myself if I didn’t meet them, this would lead to me thinking ‘F**k it, I’ve ruined it now, I might as well eat everything I’ve been craving because I’ve ruined it and I’m useless and don’t deserve the body I want because I can’t stick to a simple meal plan!’. I wanted the cycle of weight loss and weight gain to stop but I didn’t know how to do it. I have since lost 10 lbs and cannot thank Victoria enough. I have more energy than I have ever had. I’m sleeping better and naturally waking up at 6am every morning. For anyone who can’t see a light at the end of the tunnel and thinks they will never be able to have a healthy relationship with food or their bodies I promise that if you listen to Victoria… you CAN!”
