WHAT TO EXPECT?

 

On this beginner-friendly retreat, Rory will teach you the simple but powerful technique of Vedic Meditation, including getting your own personalised mantra and showing you how meditation can be something you look forward to.

 

Alex will lead classes guiding you to a foundational understanding of the essential self developmental practice of yoga.

Together, Rory and Alex will lead a series of workshops showing how meditation and yoga can remove your reliance on alcohol and open up whole worlds of new possibilities about what your life could be like after alcohol.

 

Alex is the founder of Mindful Life Practice and her Sober Yoga Girl program is the world's only yoga-centric sobriety method. Rory's Wise Monkey Way is the world's only meditation-centric approach to sobriety. Together the two approaches provide a unique and unbeatable holistic way of reducing reliance on alcohol and tapping into inner resources.

For more experienced yogis and meditators, there will be opportunities to learn advanced techniques such as advanced mantras and Vedic rounding.

 

Alex and Rory connected in 2020 through their shared philosophies and have since recorded multiple podcasts together. When they met in person for the first time in Ubud in 2023, it didn't take them long to realise how much they wanted to collaborate on something and their 2024 retreat was born.

 

It was such a success, they immediately decided to host another one together.
