Students' Voices
-By having an opportunity to relax and rest everything once a year, I feel like I've acquired the knowledge to manage my stress. In Japan it's hard to experience warm weather, nature and healthy lifestyle. To experience a totally different from my normal life in Japan was very influential for me.

-I was very happy to overlook the ocean and practice yoga everyday. It was very enjoyable knowing about ayurveda at a deeper level. Trying out mantra, yantra, mudra, asana, restorative yoga, partner yoga, etc was a fullfillinf experiene. I got along with other members, and it was such a good encounter.

-By being away from daily life in Japan, I was able to focus and be ready to learn naturally. And I felt that that was a good thing about joining retreat. Having 10 friends to spend time and study together for 10 days helped me understand ayurveda deeper. Rachel gave us some surprises, which made the whole thing an unfirgettable experience.
