Caroline Sylger-Jones, friend, mother, fellow yogini and journalist has created a great website called the Queen of Retreats.
The King and Queen have been creating a very informative and easy to navigate guide of global health retreats and breaks, selecting and attending the best options available. Caroline loves Reclaim Your Self! Please check the link above to peruse her comments and experiences. Thank you Queen of Retreats for your support!

Jools from the Reclaim team created this wonderful collection of memories for our jungle retreat we just held in north Sri Lanka. It was a beautiful adventure and practicing yoga outside with the rainforest was unforgettable.
Just before the Reclaim team set off for the Sri Lanka retreat , we wrote an article about my journey with Chavutti Thirumal or massage by foot pressure. Please follow the link to find out more about the treatment and where the latest trainings will be held.
Jools Sampson from Reclaim Your Self and myself were asked last Christmas to produce an article on how people could benefit from using some easy restorative yoga postures with tips on conscious breathing to help recover from a hang over! I based this sequence on hydration of the spine with restorative postures as a focus with creating awareness of the breathing action in our bodies.

I was asked to write an article about practicing Hatha yoga for renewal and rejuvination, and demonstrate how it would be an aid in de-tox programmes for Reclaim Your Self Yoga breaks. We were asked to create a simple, easy sequence for anyone to follow at any time of the day. This combination of yoga asanas or postures would be a positive and grounding practice to create a relaxed physical environment to help move through any chosen cleansing process. Please click on the link below to read the article. With thanks to Jools Sampson at Reclaim Your Self.

My first experience of Scaravelli yoga was on a rooftop terrace in the medina of Marrakech. What most impacted me about Helen's teaching was the principle of making my body move in two different directions: keeping my feet grounded while growing up towards the sky at the same time. And with Helen's patience and instruction, I left that rooftop terrace walking taller, feeling generally more inspired and wanting to know more about this fascinating yoga which releases the body and teaches you how to move with the grace of a panther.
