Yoga Hearts Retreat with Harshani


  • Tocane-Saint-Apre France (map)

Drop into a peaceful timeless space & enjoy a nurturing escape away into a beautiful part of Perigod, France in the countryside surrounded by fabulous forests & lakes.

Join Harshani on a deeply nurturing heart centred Yoga retreat, where there is time to stretch, rest, meditate, sleep, walk, swim & relax with healing Sacred Sound baths ~ helping to recharge your batteries & enjoy some precious self-care time out for you, far away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life in the French countryside.

We will be sharing a 4 night stay at the gorgeous French barn & Yoga Retreat home of Valerie & Glynn, who create a warm welcome & tasty Veggie meals for us all to enjoy.

You are welcome to join in as much or as little as you wish, it’s your time to simply be.

As of the end of February 2022, France are dropping the need to test before entry & will only require the vaccine passport for Covid. This may change, but it’s a good positive sign for travel plans for us all.

The venue provide all Yoga equipment, towels for the pool & bathroom, alongside most toiletries (shampoo/conditioner/shower gel), so you can travel light as hand luggage/carry on 10kg bag to keep flight costs low. Our hosts Valerie & Glynn recommend this to all of their guests, so you just need to bring yourselves, a swimming costume, Yoga clothes, sun tan lotion & a good book 😊

Open to all, beginners & experienced all welcome
