Healing Through Yoga and Prayer
Thursday – Sunday ~ April 11-14, 2024
With Jeff Bailey at the Awakening Together Retreat House
in La Veta, CO
Contrary to popular belief, yoga is not about the body. The word means “to join.” And while we try to join with the body, it is only in mind we join. To join is to heal, which makes yoga a gentle process of undoing the blockages and barriers to the awareness of Love’s Presence, our natural inheritance. In this fun, uplifting 4 day weekend of movement and conversation in La Veta, CO – where Avita Yoga got its name! – we’ll use the body in gentle, doable shapes to unwind patterns of tension, fear, and regret to get to the roots of our undoing so we can heal, join, and claim our Divinity.
Jeff has been a student of A Course In Miracles since 1990. One of its principle messages corresponds perfectly with The Yoga Sutras: to identify and resolve the obstacles to peace and lasting freedom. His consistent dedication to our shared, eternal truth has inspired Avita as a unique and healing approach to yoga. Jeff has found that yoga can heal almost anything with a reflective, self-forgiving approach.
Jeff is the founder of Avita Yoga. He has a long and diverse yoga background that began in 1985 in Gunnison, CO. The son of a rural veterinarian, Jeff developed an early appreciation for anatomy and physiology, both of which form a basis for the practical nature of a yoga practice. He can reduce the complexities of the body and mind to simple, understandable terms and works with people of all ages to relieve chronic pain and bring more joy to life.
