Ten-Day Peaceful Weight Loss Retreat
April 13–22, 2012
Yogaville
108 Yogaville Way
Buckingham, VA 23921
Join Brandt Bhanu Passalacqua, nationally recognized weight loss facilitator and author of Peaceful Weight Loss™ Through Yoga, to experience the yogic lifestyle as a profound and powerful opportunity to address weight issues in a genuinely peaceful and harmonious way in the beautiful, natural environment of Yogaville.
Immerse yourself in the Peaceful Weight Loss program as you explore easeful, breath-based Hatha Yoga as the foundation for developing eating and lifestyle patterns that will help you find your balance. You will practice easy, gentle, restorative yoga postures, breathwork and meditation, eat delicious vegetarian food and go home lighter, stronger and ready to continue with a new lifestyle that will ensure healthy weight loss.
The first three days will offer a workshop format introducing you to the concepts and practices that Bhanu uses with his clients. The next seven days will give you time to integrate these practices and experience their benefits. Bhanu will be available to help you with personal issues during the week so that you leave ready to take the changes you’ve made home with you as sustainable, healthy living patterns.
Peaceful Weight Loss, created and taught by Bhanu, who has lost one hundred pounds using this easy, gentle, restorative practice, is appropriate for everyone. No previous yoga or Peaceful Weight Loss experience is required. If you have already attended a Peaceful Weight Loss Workshop, you will have an opportunity to deepen your practice here.
Brandt Bhanu Passalacqua is a certified Integral Yoga® teacher and Structural Yoga Therapist™.
