JOIN ME IN SWEET MAROCCO
I welcome you all to a wonderful week of yoga, meditation, and prayers in the beautiful and silent desert hills of Morocco in my annual yoga retreat to Morocco. This retreat is for students that are familiar with my teaching or from any other certified Iyengar yoga teachers.
Nature is fantastic at this time in Morocco with blue skies and clear light. The temperature is roughly like a perfect Danish summer, with hot days and cool mornings and evenings. Remember, however, warm clothes - the nights can be cold - it is a desert area after all. A flashlight can come in handy as it is totally dark at night except for the millions of stars above us.
Your day starts with meditation and silent prayer, followed by yoga practice. In the afternoon there will again be gentle yoga practice, with an afternoon free to have a hammam in their beautiful marble hammam, or relax in their Himalayan salt room! and possibly book a massage at the kasbah.
A good idea is to bring a small notebook so that you can write down your thoughts, experiences and experiences.

YOGA TEACHER METTE ØRUM
Mette is a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher and well known in Scandinavia for her therapeutic yoga for people with concussion, whiplash, depression and post-traumatic stress syndrome.
Mette has more than 30 years of experience of seeing people live in a way that hurts them. Yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises are an effective way to maintain your physical and mental health. But the yoga techniques go deeper than that.
If you have experienced sleeplessness with stress or have gone through constant pain either physically or mentally, then you know that well-being cannot be overstated.
We humans have a fundamental desire to live life as a whole human being.
On this trip, you will be taught the traditional techniques of yoga, where it is possible for you to achieve states where discomfort melts away and where you rest in yourself in a way that feels both extraordinary and infinitely straightforward.
This level of yoga is hard to explain, without sounding very mysterious and unreal, but the insights and states are both very real and important.
