Heli-Yoga Spiritual
Retreat With Icefield Helicopter Tours.
One Day Program
Be prepared for a spiritual retreat combining a helicopter flight into an
alpine wilderness and experiential yoga.
Your departure
for the spiritual retreat is by helicopter, flying in some of the Canadian
Rockies’ most scenic areas. Your helicopter will land in a high alpine
meadow where you will be left with the peace, serenity & majesty of the
mountains to enjoy yoga, meditation and a gourmet picnic with your qualified
yoga instructor. You will be in the wilderness for 4 hours so make sure you
dress for the weather: We travel rain or shine for this ultimate retreat.
Eco Yoga is a program inspired by a love of yoga and passion for the
outdoors. Yoga means to yoke or be in union with the Self. Eco means earth
wisdom. Combined they mean the union of self and the natural landscape. This
activity will give participants the chance to discover their “ecological
self,” which experiences a connection to all things.
Eco Yoga combines the rich experiences of the Eastern and Western
traditions. The east brings forward yoga and the contemplative traditions;
these techniques open the body and calm the mind. The west still remembers
the traditional path of those who lived closely with the land.
By combining yoga, nature routines and outdoor activities, participants will
be able to explore and reconnect to their inner and outer landscape in a
delightful and provocative way.
Your session
will consist of a selection of Eco Yoga (thematic yoga), meditation (nature
themed meditation), nature routines (sensory awareness activities which
include a sit spot in the woods), and mindful walks in which participant
will be able to cultivate the experience of union with themselves and the
natural environment.
The Heli-Yoga program is $449.00 per person +GST. A minimum of 2 people are
required.
