Upcoming Yoga Retreats

Take a conscious break from everyday life and discover what it feels like when movement, rest, and clarity return to balance. This retreat invites you to step back and reconnect with yourself.

Intentional Living means not only organizing life, but consciously shaping it - feeling what your body needs, using your energy mindfully, and creating space for rest, clarity, and new perspectives.

Look forward to a balanced combination of powerful and regenerative movement sessions, mindful bodywork, breathing practices, meditation, and impulses from neuro-mental training and coaching. The practice combines yoga, functional movement, and fascia work with conscious breathing and mental reflection.

At the heart of the retreat is intention-based movement. Instead of focusing on performance or perfection, the aim is to consciously perceive the body, build strength, improve mobility, and release tension. At the same time, calming evening practices help regulate the nervous system and allow deep relaxation. Step by step, this creates a sense of stability, lightness, and clarity - both physically and mentally.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re just functioning and no longer truly connected to yourself? Perhaps you’re successful, organized, and present for others, yet still sense an underlying exhaustion and inner restlessness. Often, our nervous system remains in a constant state of stress without us even noticing.

This retreat is a gentle invitation to step out of constant doing. You will learn how to consciously regulate your nervous system, with a focus on the vagus nerve as a key to regeneration, emotional stability, and a healthy response to stress.

We intentionally take time to pause, replenish your energy, and prepare for the winter season before the year grows louder, the holiday rush begins, and the calendar fills up even more. Together, we create a space where you can truly feel your body again, allow your nervous system to settle, and reconnect with a sense of safety, clarity, and inner balance.

In this retreat, you will learn practical methods to build mental and physical strength, inner calm, and resilience. Through a holistic yoga and coaching approach, Gabriela Bozic guides you back to balance, grounding, and inner strength. Between the shared sessions, there is dedicated time for integration, silence, and enjoyment. Each class offers subtle impulses from yoga philosophy and coaching to help you integrate the retreat experience into daily life, personal practice, or teaching - clear, contemporary, and directly accessible.
