Top Yoga Retreat Destinations

Yoga retreat destinations have become a multi-million dollar industry over the past thirty years and a top choice for business professionals from America to Europe. Inspired by principles of Buddhism and Hinduism, yoga retreats and spas seek to cleanse the mind, body and soul through a healthy diet, yoga meditation and ancient, specialized breathing, yoga poses and posture techniques.

Yoga retreat vacations are great for beginners and advanced practitioners alike. A Yoga instructor since 1997, Jillian Pransky says, “Many of my students are city dwellers. Their yoga is fit in between running in and out of busy streets and wedged into their busy workloads. They get little respite and often don’t get the dramatic effect they experience on retreat. Your body has more time to open, change, purify and cleanse in a retreat environment than in a daily practice.”

For young, budget-conscious couples, the ten-day Inspya Yoga Retreat in Bali starts at $1009. Stay at the Greenfield Bungalows amid rice fields, tropical gardens and monkey forests. Visit temples, Mount Agung volcano and coral reefs in your free time. Paint a mural, participate in Balinese dance, meditate, learn to cook, make an offering or a wood carving, get a massage, swim in a spring water swimming pool, eat in an open-air restaurant, learn Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga and breathing techniques, or meet a traditional Balian healer. Loads of Aussies, Europeans and Americans flock here to find respite from daily stress.

All too often we leave our vacation feeling like we need another vacation from the grueling tourist’s pace we kept the entire time. Why not choose a relaxing, rejuvenating yoga retreat that will leave you feeling healthier, more well-rested and spiritually cleansed than ever before?

There are many different forms of Yoga that people around the world practice. Some use it primarily for its low-impact workout whereas others love the feel of meditation and concentration required in some of the many poses. Yoga is a great way for those suffering from injury or unused to a cardiovascular workout to begin their path to becoming physically and mentally fit. Exercise is an important part of our daily lives and the added benefit of learning relaxation techniques is enough to entice anyone onto a mat.
