Investigating Ikigai - an Afternoon Retreat, held by Susie and Lindsey Porter from YogaNuU in the beautiful Nurture Yurt.

This is an afternoon of mindfully exploring our purpose (Ikigai) through movement and a mindfulness workshop.

Our afternoon contains a variety of practices to encourage us to tune into our purpose in life. Research shows us that longevity is very much linked to having a purpose, and being able to fulfill this in a meaningful way. We'll share a mindfulness workshop, which will include some written reflections plus movement.

We'll have a break for a hot drink and homemade cake.

Spaces are limited - so be quick!

Our Afternoon Retreat will be held on Sunday 1st June 2-4.30pm. We will have a break during this time. The cost is £49. If this puts attending out of reach, get in touch - we do have a subsidised space: susie@pauseandbreathe.co.uk - click here to book in
