Thriving but unspoilt, you’ll find its winding streets with overhanging balconies and eclectic Ottoman architecture irresistible. * A picturesque resort with comfortable accommodation: Patara Prince is a charming, rustic, privately-owned resort hotel nestled into the coast just across Kalkan bay. You will fall in love with its natural stone, abundant greenery and character-full winding pathways. It is far enough from the town to enjoy serenity and peace, but just a 15-minute walk or short boat ride for explorers. The vibe is mellow and comfortable, intimate yet spacious with plenty of areas in which to lose yourself and enjoy those much needed quiet moments and ‘you time’. You will have full use of the facilities including two salt-water, ocean-view pools, and tennis courts.

During your retreat journey, you will be introduced to each chakra and its function, and discover how to restore balance and keep energy flowing healthily and harmoniously.  You will have ready access to Sarah and Emily’s friendly support through-out, and receive a supportive printed workbook. A post-retreat group online workshop with Sarah & Emily will be available  6-weeks later to help you identify areas where you could create more balance, and continue to thrive. * Daily Energy Medicine Yoga®️: Designed for all abilities, this gentle and restorative practice is a magical union of yoga and energy medicine that amplifies the benefits of a traditional practice by combining simple movements that help the body to self-regulate, energise, and move with more ease. * Daily Energy & Intuitive Eating Workshops: Relaxed workshops and sharing circles designed to build understanding of how your body’s natural energy system connects with your health and habits. These inspiring and illuminating sessions connect you with intuitive approaches to eating that help to de-stress your relationship with food, retune with your body, and enhance energy in your daily life. * Other holistic activities: Restorative guided meditations, rejuvenating visualisations, journalling, breath-work practice, and coastal walks. (You can also book into a local spa/hammam or have reflexology onsite at additional cost).  * Energising excursions: Wander through the stalls of a delightful food market in a neighbouring town; discover Patara’s ancient Lycian ruins and golden 12-mile protected beach; unwind for a day on a private gulet boat trip with plenty of swim stops and an opportunity for a cleansing mud bath.  * Nourishing food: Locally sourced, nutritious, plant-powered Turkish meals. Vegans and vegetarians will be well catered for. Breakfasts will be Turkish-style including salads, tomatoes, cucumber, eggs, olives, cheese, breads, tahini, oats, yoghurts and fruits.

ROOTS In the whirlwind of daily life, we often miss the present. But what if we paused? By cultivating awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and the world around us, we unlock a path to greater well-being. This practice, known as mindfulness, allows us to savour life's experiences and gain a deeper understanding of ourselves. Have you ever noticed yourself multitasking on autopilot? Working from home with the TV on, scrolling through your phone while eating, or rushing through your day without truly being present? In today's digital age, it's easy to become scattered and disconnected.  That's where "Roots" comes in. The name has a reason just like our life. Our roots, both physical and metaphorical, connect us to the earth's energy. Yoga mimic these roots, anchoring us in the present moment. Mindfulness becomes the fertile ground where inner wisdom and true self can flourish.  I am NIROSHINI, and I've been practising yoga since the age of 6. With a background rooted in yoga and naturopathy studies in India, I'm passionate about sharing the transformative power of yoga and mindfulness. Drawing from the wisdom of Hatha and Ashtanga Yoga traditions, we have a tapestry of mindful movement, breathwork, postures, (asanas), meditation, and relaxation techniques. This holistic approach cultivates peace, strength, and awareness on both on and off the mat. At Roots, we believe yoga is a transformative tool for a happier, healthier you. Discover your roots and embark on this journey of mindful well-being.  This will be your path to reconnect with yourself. Through gentle yoga practices and mindfulness techniques, you'll learn to cultivate present-moment awareness and a sense of calm amidst the everyday chaos. Imagine truly savouring your meals, quieting your mind during work, increased productivity and finding peace in the simple moments. Through “Roots” you'll experience a dramatic shift in your well-being and the way you look at the journey of your life. Join me on this journey to find your roots and discover the joy of mindful living. Contact us : +447395275754 Instagram: therootsedinburgh
