I have created this blog to keep you all informed about our yoga week-end in Maremma. The dates of the 27th, 28th and 29th March are confirmed and the venue is the magical Castle of Marsiliana, in the heart of Maremma, 15kms from Capbalbio. Our instructor for the week-end  Roberto Pesce, allievo of Patrick Tomatis and Eric Baret, is also a qualified ayurvedic therapist and is available for massage by appointment. The vegetarian food menu for the week-end will be authentic ayurvedic, prepared by our 'resident' chef at the castle and will further contribute to the 'detoxing', beneficial effects of the concentrated program of yoga and meditation. Find below the program for the week-end which quite honestly I cannot wait to begin!!! Any queries or suggestions please let me know............<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9031857997329507832-4121947704814886183?l=yogaretreatmaremma.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Yoga Retreat Maremmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06957116289666562992noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031857997329507832.post-79172927510508729332009-02-15T05:37:00.000-08:002009-02-27T08:58:02.669-08:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Friday 27th</span>  <div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">17.00 </span></div><div>arrival at the castle, tea and cakes<div>together with a presentation of the</div><div>program for the week-end.             </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">18.00 to 19.30</span>    </div><div>introduction to yoga</div><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">20.00 </span>                  </div><div>dinner - ayurvedic vegetarian menu</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Saturday 28th</span> </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">07.00 to 08.00  </span></div><div>meditation and yoga -  wake up sequences<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">08.30 </span></div><div>breakfast</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">10.00 to 12.30</span>    </div><div>yoga - muscular/articular/respiratory</div><div>sequences, posture and meditation</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">13.00  </span>                  </div><div>lunch - ayurvedic vegetarian menu</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">14.00 </span>                   </div><div>rest/exploring Marsiliana walk</div><div>massage on appointment</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">17.00 to 19.30   </span>  </div><div>yoga - posture and relaxation sequences</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">20.00</span>                   </div><div>dinner - ayurvedic vegetarian menu </div><div>                                                      <br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Sunday 29th<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">07.00</span>                  </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">meditation and yoga - wake up sequences</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">08.30 </span>                  </div><div>breakfast</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">10.00 to 12.00 </span>   </div><div>yoga - muscular/articular/respiratory</div><div>sequences, posture and meditation</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">12.00 to 12.30</span>    </div><div>pause for tea</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">12.30 to 13.30</span>   </div><div>'contemplation of sound' </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">14.00</span>                    </div><div>lunch - ayurvedic vegetarian menu</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">15.00 </span>                   </div><div>rest/exploring Marsiliana walks</div><div>massage on appointment</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">18.00</span>                    </div><div>happy goodbyes until the next time!!!!!!!!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">The Food</span></div><div><br /></div><div>The ayurvedic menu consists of vegetarian dishes which are considered to be highly digestible and when served in certain combinations very 'curative' and theraputic. There will be no white bread, pasta or any preserved or refined or non fresh food used. The dishes are of indian origin and therefore spicy but not overly, the dishes include; risotto with lentils and mung beans, a 'kaddy' which is vegetables done with chick pea flour, lemon soup, dishes with coconut puree, chutneys and fresh fruit and sweets. Look at the widget on the side to see more recipes and examples. We should stay off the wine of course to have a total cleanse but the wine at Marsiliana is so GOOD..............we can be forgiven maybe a couple of glasses?</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9031857997329507832-7917292751050872933?l=yogaretreatmaremma.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Yoga Retreat Maremmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06957116289666562992noreply@blogger.com0
