Happy Summer Solstice ☀️ I’m en route to Croatia to lead my annual Summer lovin’ yoga retreat on Brac island and celebrate summer in style!;) Can’t wait to a reunion with my beautiful yoginis who come back every year, to meet new beautiful souls, to hang out with my @supersoulyoga sista Dee who has been organising this retreat for me for the 6th year in a row now (thank you Dee!!), to see our gracious host Sanja, and to see Brac - one of my favorite islands! See you all tomorrow. ❤️ ・ #yogaretreat #summersolstice #reunion #yogateacher #love #photo @sanjinkastelan
Blessings on this beautiful full moon in Sagittarius lighting the sky last night but still very potent for the next days. Sag is a fire sign and fire has the power of transformation, so it is a good day to look with more light and clarity at whatever you feel you want to transform in your life, or transform your life into one which resonates more with your values, believes, and your heart. ・ This full moon is an important one for me as it markes wrapping up many things small and big, work related and personal, a sort of a clearing of a path towards a new beginning. Few more things to finish up before, on the new moon, I set sail towards a new home, towards much more time for myself, and generally a different life I’m really looking forward to. ・ #fullmoon #blessings #love #change #fire #yoga #yogateacher #yogini
Congratulations to our beautiful Milano tribe, as I call them even though we are coming together from different cities, countries, and walks of life, yet united in yoga and love we feel for one another. Belinda and I are very proud mamas today! Each one of you has taken this opportunity not only to learn how to teach a method of yoga, but to be open to see the depth of who you are and courageously be open to the transformation of your body/mind, so you can live from your essence and shine your beautiful light. This is what yoga truly is! Thank you for planting trees for each person in the group so our trees keep growing together as we for sure will! As teachers we are always students as well, so thank you for the lessons and most of all for your love. Thank you my Beli @yogabelinda my colleague but more importantly friend for walking this path together. Grateful for you. Grateful for this weekend. Also, Chiara we missed you! Love you all and see you soon. ・ #yogateachers #yttc #yogamilano #love #shineyourlight #beautifulsouls #congratulations🎓 #loveyou
When two givers indulge in a connection, it’s like magic. It’s alchemy. I water you, you water me, we never drain each other, we just grow.” ・ I saw this quote on Instagram the other day and it really resonated with me, so I went online to find out where it came from. Couldn’t find the origin of the quote, but I found an interesting article on psychology today about successful relationships and three types of people, one of them being givers. ・ I thought it was an interesting theory, but one that needs a bit more depth, so I dug deeper into literature as well as my own experience and thoughts. I shared some of my ponderings in a new blog. Link in bio. ・ #photo by @sanjinkastelan #give #kindness #love #yoga #generosity #betterworld #bethechange
As a Yoga practitioner, you most likely have experienced a sudden release of emotions during or after Yoga practice - this can range from sadness and tears coming ‘out of nowhere”, to agitation, anxiety, anger, fear or regression into sensitive early developmental moments. ・ This as an involuntary release, which can be to an extend beneficial for some, however, for others it can lead to a physical and emotional imbalance or dis-regulation. This is why some yogic practices are called advanced and were traditionally only taught by an experienced teacher individually to a student. Today this unfortunately isn’t the case. ・ Yoga teachers are mostly not trained in psychotherapy so they don’t know what to look for, but with some basic knowledge which we offer in our Somatic Awareness and Core Evolution module, you can notice certain patterns in your own Body-Mind Field and later also in your student’s. This can help you avoid certain practices which can cause an imbalance of dis-regulation in your own practice as well as teaching. I believe that this knowledge takes you to a whole new level of understanding self as well of teaching. Not understanding anatomy can cause physical injuries, not understanding the mind can cause emotional scars and this is what this module will address. ・ For now, this module I’m co-teaching with my Core Evolution teacher Siegmar Gerken is happening October 19-26. in Ericeira, Portugal, and we don’t have other dates scheduled for now, so if you’re interested, join us in Portugal! This WS is YACEP accredited. Link in bio for more info. ・ #yogateachertraining #yogateacher #advancedyogatraining #bodymind #coreevolution #psychology #yoga #meditation #spandayogatribe
“For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century he is beginning to realize that, in order to survive, he must protect it. The sea, the great unifier, is man’s only hope. Now, as never before, the old phrase has a literal meaning: we are all in the same boat.”- Jacques Cousteau ・ It’s World Oceans Day today, and we celebrate its mesmerizing beauty, mysticism, as well as it’s importance for the survival of life as we know it. Oceans cover two thirds of our planet, produce 70% of the oxygen we breathe, they regulate Earth’s climate and are home to the greatest abundance of life on Earth. Yet, it suffers greatly from the impact of human interference: pollution, global warming, overfishing, oil spills just to name a few. ・ We are all equally responsible and not only can, but have to do our part to protect life on Earth. To protect what really is sacred- nature which gives us air, food and water. We bow to statues and ideas and destroy what really gave us and gives us life, and this paradox might just be the end of us. But, there’s still time to awaken. ・ What can we do individually? Much! Consider switching to a vegan diet and stop supporting the greatest polluters - animal agriculture as well as overfishing. Buy local (food, clothes etc.) to reduce the carbon footprint of transporting goods long distances. Reduce your use of plastic as much as possible. Get your friends together and do a beach clean up. Read, research, get informed. Be the change and inspire others. Happy Ocean Day and have a beautiful weekend. ・ #ocean #WorldOceansDay #protect #serve #awaken #govegan #saynotoplastic #bethechange #inspire #surf #love #consciousliving #yoga #offthemat #photo @sanjinkastelan
***SRI LANKA TTC update*** After much consideration and consultation with my team as well as already registered students, I have decided to move Sri Lanka 200 & 300 hour TTC and retreats from December/January to February 2020. February is, after all, my favorite month to enjoy this beautiful island, it’s much less crowded, flights are cheaper and the weather is still great... This February will be my 5th year going back, always at the same time so I guess it was meant to be. ・ Recent horrible events in Sri Lanka have shocked us all, and have triggered doubt and fear in many. I guess that was the intention of those responsible; they want everyone to live in the world of hate and fear, just like they do. But, life in Sri Lanka is going back to normal and I know that love, light and peace will prevail. I for one can’t wait to be back with my dream team @jasna.yoga.dance @sanjinkastelan @marijamarija.b and offer support and love to one of my favorite places in the world. I hope you will join us! ・ The programme remains the same, only dates have changed. ・ Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu Shanti, Shanti, Shanti ・ #photo @sanjinkastelan #srilanka #love #peace #yoga #paradise #islandlife #yogateachertraining #vinyasayoga #integralvinyasa #spandavinyasayogaschool #spandayogatribe

New moon blessings to all! I have been pretty silent lately, partially due to lack of time, partially taking a break from screens and virtual life. But, last night I felt I wanted to share something. It started as a post but it was way too long so I shared it as a new blog post on my website.

A 10-month journey with these amazing, beautiful yoginis came to an end today. But, we know that the end is also a beginning and that this isn’t a goodbye but a start of something new. ・ My heart is so full; of pride, admiration, gratitude, and love I feel for these beautiful, soft but strong women. Thank you for choosing me as your guide on this journey, thank you for the trust, openness, and willingness. Thank you for your love, support, and kindness.

Grateful for the wonderful residential weekend with Milano TTC group surrounded with such soft, beautiful souls and lush, healing greens of mama Nature. ・ It was intense for all; mentally, physically and emotionally, but my ♡ is full. Thank you all so much for your willingness, for your support of each other, for your openness and kindness. For the laughs and the tears. Thank you Valentina once again for organising everything! Thank you @jasna.yoga.dance for coming along and helping me hold space, survive the super long drive and being your joyful self:).

A friend commented on how I’m very silent on social networks lately and asked me if everything was ok. I guess we all have our cycles and they reflect on every part of our life, even the presence on social media. So, if for whatever reason you’re wondering, even though I honestly thought nobody noticed, I’m in a very good place right now, just taking a lot of time and space for myself, spending time with friends and family, traveling and - love. Yes, this yoga girl is in love and happy he’s not on IG to read this! 😆 ...more perhaps another time;). ・ Ever since, now almost two months ago, I closed my @sangha_yoga studio, with the emotional roller coaster it involved, I felt so much time and energetic space opened up for me. And today, filing the last bit of paperwork related to closing the company and that part of my life, I felt a big weight off my shoulders. I loved my Sangha, but it was time to move on. Now I see I really made the best decision for me. ・ I’m leaving Croatia more permanently soon, but before I do, you can still join my last retreat in Croatia’s beautiful Brac island 22-28 June. Few spots still left! Check @supersoulyoga for more info or DM me. I’m taking a break next year from this annual event and looking into Mallorca or Morocco next May/June (what do you think??). Also, will be back to Zagreb for a Chakra Vinyasa workshop in September and December. Registration will be open soon. ・ Sending you love and high vibes ✨ ・ #photography @sanjinkastelan #space #metime #yogini #yogagirl #love #croatiayogaretreat #vinyasayoga #mallorcayoga #spandayogatribe #yogateacher #yogaretreat
