DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/287333187″ title=”Yoga & Permaculture Design Course Retreat”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nRetreat Overview\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”content-subheader”]Combining Outer Ecology (Permaculture) with Inner Ecology (Yoga) \n‘Permaculture’ is an integrated land use design methodology based on ecological principles\, with practical application from sustainable household to eco-nation to global restoration. We combine this amazing course with an intimate introduction to a yogic lifestyle.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The Permaculture design concept is an abundant\, integrated and practical method of developing the external ecosystem. Yoga is the inner ecology of living consciously\, spiritually\, and harmoniously in the world. Both concepts complement each other and blend together to develop a sustainable lifestyle within one’s inner self and the outer environment. \nThis course is the standard residential International Permaculture Design Certificate curriculum\, taught in an integrated hands-on way\, culminating in a comprehensive land-use design project. Yoga\, deep relaxation and meditation sessions will be woven into the daily schedule bringing you a unique course combining inner ecology (yoga) with the outer ecology (Permaculture). \nThis 19 day course includes practical skill building activities\, mini-design exercises\, and visits to inspirational properties that demonstrate Permaculture in practice. It takes place in an intentional eco yoga community and incorporates the exploration of ”Deep Ecology” (with Inna Alex)\, the connection to nature and element themed yoga practices aimed at enhancing personal sustainability that extends out into the wider community. \nUpon completion\, a Permaculture Design Certificate will be issued by the Institute of Earthcare Education Aotearoa. \nThe Permaculture Course Program broadly covers:\n\nPermaculture ethics\, design principles and implementation\nOrganic growing methods (vegie gardens\, herbs\, fruit)\nRural land management (orchards\, pastures\, trees\, water systems)\nIntegrated animal systems\nWater harvesting & storage\, grey-water & ‘waste’ recycling\,\nEcological building\nRenewable energy systems\nSocial permaculture / Invisible Structures\nFull Permaculture Design Process\nDeep Ecology\n\nFind out what Course Instructor\, Robina McCurdy along with Anahata’s own Swami Karma Karuna have to say about How to Live a Sacred Life by Honouring Gaia > \nThe Yoga Program includes:\n\nHatha Yoga\nMantra Meditation\nYoga Nidra- deep relaxation for inner sustainability\nGuided meditation\nKirtan (singing mantras to music)\nHavan (ancient Vedic Fire Ceremony to honour the elements)\nTimes of silence\n\nCourse Location:\nAnahata Yoga Retreat is located in a spectacular natural environment\, near the Abel Tasman National Park in Golden Bay.
