Arctic Illumination Yoga Retreat

WELCOME | VELKOMINN

Charged particles collide with the earths magnetic field in an excited state. It’s not until the protons achieve a lower, more relaxed energy state that the stream of lights flare in the sky creating the scene for Northern Lights. Find what illuminates you in moments of peace and relaxation in this unique Icelandic setting. The Arctic Illumination Retreat will focus on our ever changing selves. Just as Iceland offers a constantly changing and awe inspiring landscape, we can recognize in ourselves that nothing is predictable or permanent. Come to learn and appreciate the here and now and bring focus to your well being along our Iceland adventure. Experience natural hot springs, the search for Northern Lights, food that only Iceland has to offer – a week of rejuvenation and outdoor bliss!

“I went to Iceland with Drishti Journeys in the fall and it was amazing. When I look back at the photos I’m still in awe of how beautiful it is and how much we got to see in a short time there. Having Reinier to show us around and what I like to call “Get us right to the good stuff” was great, I was able to just relax, sit back and Enjoy Iceland.”

– Chuck Betker, Iceland Retreat 2017
