Stress has become more than a word, for most Americans it is an all too familiar condition. According to the American Institute
of Stress,
75 - 90 percent of doctor visits are stress-related.
Occasional retreats give us many vital opportunities - De-stress, "get away from it ALL", turn our attention to ourself and our yoga practice. Think of a retreat as Extreme Self Care, a necessity to counter our stressful lifestyle - a time to relax, rejuvenate, & restore.
