Improves attention & concentration
Integrating physical movement with breath awareness and focused attention, upgrades neural communication between the brain and body,

Sustainability
Blue Stone Retreats is a not-for-profit organisation. We are net-zero and biodiversity net-positive, which means we off-set our carbon footprint and use our profits, after paying our teachers and running costs, to help wildlife at each retreat location. This can be low-cost like putting up nesting boxes or higher-cost e.g. water ecology projects when our profit is higher. We support local producers and source seasonal locally produced food to reduce emissions and travel miles associated with our retreat cooking. We always share sustainability best practice with our venues,
and we cannot control their operations,
so they are not net-zero.
Welcome to yoga and breathwork with a sustainability purpose. At Blue Stone Retreats, we are committed to tackling climate crisis and ecological breakdown.
I am overflowing with gratitude for my teacher, Steve Harrison, founder of the Yoga Sanctuary In Southampton. and the LIVING YOGA METHOD. Steve's yoga, breathwork, cold water training and teacher training literally transformed my life from mediocre to magnificent. I practised yoga every day with him online through the pandemic and all the way through my divorce.
Steve's METHOD taught me courage, discernment, to surpass my limitations, to connect with the joy in my heart and to say a big 'YES 'to life. I've got absolute faith the living yoga method will transform your life too.
Creating a nurturing and immersive experience for you on retreat is my way of passing his teaching onto others, and I'd love you to join me and learn this gift yourself. "
