Wanderlust Experience
Yoga and Walking Retreat in the Lake District
Discover the best of the Lake District with an unforgettable yoga and walking retreat experience, escaping the hustle and immersing yourself in our two favourite activities, Yoga and exploring the invigorating outdoor scenery which surrounds us in abundance.
​
The benefits of the outdoors are widely documented and enjoyed by many in the Lake District. Our Wanderlust Retreat programme gives you the opportunity to find peace and presence through energising and restorative yoga practices, while nourishing the senses with delicious food and invigorating group hike experiences as we embrace some of the UK's most beautiful scenery.
​
Restoring mental health, naturally through Yoga and Walking Retreats in the Lake District
Being outdoors in nature provides us with a unique perspective. From the pinnacle of the mountain, looking down on the sweeping valleys, and bathing in its beauty and vastness, somehow all the worries of life seem more manageable. Reaching the summit, not only brings a sense of achievement like no other, it also teaches us to honour the challenges we encountered along the way, connecting us to the richness of life, boosting both confidence and self esteem. The challenges that we set ourselves, and the way that we shape ourselves to rise to those challenges, is life. This sense of perspective we gain from these rich experiences better enables us to break free from our negative thought patterns, putting our worries back into perspective, and addressing life in a more optimistic way.
Combining our love for the outdoors with the art of yoga retreating, we bring you the Wanderlust Retreat experience, the yoga and walking retreat in the Lake District that will go way beyond your expectations! Whether you're a seasoned yogi, or a beginner with the desire to deepen your knowledge, the traditional practices interweaved through this Yoga and walking retreat in the Lake District, lead by teachers of Ananda Yoga Retreats, Ananda and Adrienne, will allow you to explore the deeper dimensions of the body mind and spirit. Through practice rich with philosophy, a deepened sense of self-awareness will encourage introspection into the subtle body experience, guiding us back to our "true self" or "higher self".
