If I had a dollar for every woman who has said to me, “I would love to go on a yoga retreat, but…”
…I’ve never done yoga.
…I’ve done it, but not in a long time.
…I’m no good at it.
…Everybody else will be more advanced and I’ll slow them down or hold them back.
I hear some version of this quite often.
And it makes me a little sad, because none of those things mean a yoga retreat isn’t for you.
You don’t need to be the most experienced person in the room. You don’t need to know all the poses. You don’t need to be flexible, fearless or “good at yoga.”
You just need to find the right retreat - one where the yoga meets you exactly where you are.
I wrote about this in the latest Wanderer’s Journal, including what to look for before booking a retreat and how to know whether it will actually feel welcoming to you.
