The qigong outside was a truly unique experience.\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nGreat for mental and physical health\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nThis weekend has been amazing and one of the most beneficial relaxing weekends of mindfulness. The highlight was practicing outside in nature.\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nRich and nourishing\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]\nMindfulness, Qigong & Yoga Retreat Weekend at Samye Ling.\n \nWhatever age we are,  many of us can get stuck in old habits, such as neglecting self-care, not getting enough good quality sleep and forgetting to move in ways that maintain our strength, balance and flexibility. Research evidence suggests that practicing mindfulness with yoga and qigong can help all these issues and increase our confidence, happiness and overall quality of life.  As we get older we need to put a little more effort into taking care of ourselves, but this needn’t be difficult. In fact with yoga and qigong it can be quite fun.\nDuring this weekend you will learn some short, easy to do, gentle Chi Yoga and QiGong movements integrated with Mindfulness practice. You will be practicing along as part of a group of like minded people in a friendly and supportive atmosphere.\nWe will also take advantage of the beautiful natural surroundings at Samye Ling and go on mindful walks in nature and some forest bathing.\nSo if you feel stuck in your old habits why not do something different? Come and join us at the truly peaceful and beautiful retreat centre at Samye Ling in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, for a weekend of movement, mindfulness and relaxation. This weekend is open to anyone who wishes to join.\nTutor: Jacky Seery and Audrey Lowrie\nDates: 5-7 September 2025\nPrice: £165.00 including manual\nTimes: 19.00-20.30pm on the Friday evening (after soup at 18.00pm) in-between 8.00am and 20.00pm on the Saturday and in-between 8.00am and 15.00pm on Sunday.\nLocation: Samye Ling ( https://www.samyeling.org/ )\nBooking: contact info@mindfulnessassociation.net ( mailto:info@mindfulnessassociation.net )\nPlease book your accommodation and meals for the weekend directly with Samye Ling by emailing bookings@samyeling.org.
