Understanding and using conscious, participatory practices in nature helps us heal and feel whole, calm, balanced, and fulfilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love to share techniques from the yoga tradition and energy medicine and nature connection practices with ceremonies that unlock a world of possibilities in personal and spiritual transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am a Mum of three grown-up children and currently live and practice in the Wye Valley<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m excited to share all these wonderful practices with you at our lovely Mountain Retreat in Wales<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sianruleyoga.files.wordpress.com\/2023\/07\/debbie.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"299\" height=\"253\" src=\"https:\/\/sianruleyoga.files.wordpress.com\/2023\/07\/debbie.png?w=299\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1880\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Debbie<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hi, I&#8217;m Debbie, I grew up with energy practices so it has been my passion for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My father Qigong teacher and senior instructor with the Tai Chi Boxing Association and taught us how to see and work with energy at an early age\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Mum was an Earth Goddess and took us outside at every possible opportunity! And I have her to thank for my love and deep connection to nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To this day I spend as much time outdoors as possible and truly believe that nature is our greatest teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My classes are suitable for everyone and focus on awareness, breath, and subtle energies. I will often weave in tidbits from energy medicine that you can continue to use in your daily life after you return home<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching about the Five Elements is one of my favourite things to do! when we understand our own rhythm we intuitively start to live in harmony with our own cycles, and the greater cycles of nature\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I look forward to welcoming you to our Retreat and sharing these amazing practices with you<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:53px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">How to Book<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Spaces are limited to 15 people, so book soon and gift yourself this&nbsp;beautiful, 4 nights\/ 5 days summer retreat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">**SPECIAL PRICE &#8211; 10% off if booked by January 31!**<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a3685 for shared rooms Bryntail, Clywedog, Dylife, Hyddgen&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a3725 for shared rooms Pennant &amp; Pumlumon&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a3795 &nbsp;for shared rooms Arwystli.
