Who is your Art teacher teacher?
|
We, Olga and Orsi, were lucky to meet each other in the yoga room in the amazing Yogaschool Noord in Amsterdam. Both passionate about yoga, mindfulness, hiking, nature and art, we believe that there are many effective tools to bring awareness and inner peace into the dynamic world that we live in and the combination of yoga+art could offer those bites of calmness and quietness of the mind. Dare to give yourself some me-time and join us for a post Summer reset in Bulgaria.
Why you should join this Yoga, Art and Hiking Holiday in Bulgaria?
Life's getting crazier by the day, isn't it? We're all hustling so hard, sometimes it feels like we're running on empty. But hey, amidst the chaos, we gotta remember to hit pause, take a breather, and get back in touch with ourselves. That's where yoga swoops in like a superhero, giving us that daily dose of sanity and self-awareness we desperately need.
But guess what? Yoga's not just about bending and stretching—it's like a journey inward, helping us find that sweet spot of balance and harmony, both within ourselves and with the world around us. And that's exactly what our Yoga, Art, & Hiking Holiday in Bulgaria is all about—reconnecting with yourself while soaking in the magic of the Bulgarian mountains.
So, what's the deal with the activities—yoga, art, and hiking?
Well, picture this: mornings kick off with some gentle yoga to get those sleepy muscles moving and our minds in gear. Then, depending on how we're feeling, the day might unfold with some chill time, a bit of artsy fun, or a leisurely stroll through nature's wonderland. We've got hiking routes for every pace, from easy breezy walks to scenic spots like the Vidimsko Praskalo waterfall or the cozy Secluded Chapel.
And when the sun starts to set, we gather back at the yoga spot for some soothing stretches, a bit of guided meditation, and some serious R&R.
But what about downtime?
Well, if you're up for it, there are extra hiking adventures or maybe a friendly tennis match with the gear the venue provides. And hey, if you feel like taking a breather from all the yoga, art, or hiking, that's totally cool too—this trip's all about doing what feels right for you.
