Nicky Dye
Hello lovely yogis!
When choosing your retreat, I think it’s always nice to know a little bit about the teacher, so here’s a little intro about me.
I’ve been practising yoga for 25 years and teaching for 10. My journey began with Strala Yoga, which is a style inspired by the principles of tai chi and qigong. I love the continuous flow of the movement and the permission to move in a way that feels good for me. My classes align to the seasons and organ/energy channels of the Five Elements: Earth (Late Summer), Metal (Autumn), Water (Winter), Wood (Spring) and Fire (Summer). Over the years, I have also trained in shiatsu and therapeutic specialisms, including Chinese Medicine for Female Health / Mental Health and Yoga for Cancer.
I think retreats are really special, because they give you time and space to breathe and be, to create new beginnings, friendships and memories. When we share time with like-minded souls, we may naturally open up to each other and create new perspectives to bring home with us, in order to live life with more ease and joy, and in this way, the energy of the retreat continues way beyond the trip.
I am passionate about health, healing and happiness, and I thrive on helping people release stress and handle challenge with ease.
I would be over the moon if you joined us on this retreat.
Five Element Theory
During this Women’s Health Retreat, you will be introduced to the Five Element Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The aim of the Five Element approach is for you to feel not just physiologically or physically better, but emotionally better too. It’s all about coming back into optimal balance, (not just a normal range), and feeling like you again.
We consist of Five Elements, which are Fire, Earth, Water, Metal and Wood. Each of these is associated with 2-4 organs and their energy channels. Depending on who you are, one of those Elements is always slightly out of kilter from the rest. That’s where your physiological, psychological and emotional attributes come from.
When you’re out of balance, you don’t feel so good and if you stay that way for a while, your health starts to suffer.
The classes on this retreat are designed using the Five Elements to enhance your health and ease your transition through various life stages of being female. Each of you will also be gifted an Ayurvedic Massage and Five Element Health Assessment. Get ready to feel like you again!
Testimonials
“ I came home feeling fully re-set and have definitely been sleeping better since. I am enjoying using some new recipes and have been doing some short yoga sessions at home on my days off in an attempt to maintain that inner calm. Thank you for a lovely retreat and all the ideas that have come from it for me".
