JOANNE CHANDLER
Jo is passionate about yoga, health and wellbeing. She discovered the healing effects of yoga after it cured her of chronic fatigue in 2007. Since then, she has studied yoga in India, Australia, Switzerland and the UK. She takes inspiration from any form of yoga which emphasizes expanding awareness, particularly through body alignment. From this type of training she believes you can become more consciously aware of all aspects of your life, which then creates a powerful place for transformation. She hopes that whether you are a student or teacher, you will also discover your own personal transformation at Wholeycow.

Reset your body and mind during the 4 day intensive retreat.
We combine guided meditation, yoga asana practice, qigong, breath work, journaling, walking meditation, connection with nature and barefoot hikes through glacier streams in the powerful and beautiful mountains to challenge our comfort zone and overcome our self imposed limitations.
Furthermore, by changing the subconscious programmes that stop us from achieving greatness, we learn to set ourselves free.
We start with identifying the beliefs by challenging ourselves,
then we rewrite the subconscious programs by redirecting our attention and energy on the vision of the future we want, to finally uncover the unlimited potential in ourselves.
ACCOMMODATION
The retreat will be hosted at Hotel de Verbier in Verbier, Switzerland. The newly renovated hotel is sure to enchant you, and its cosy style is known to create an effortlessly relaxing cocoon. The delicious vegetarian meals, cooked with love will be prepared each day in the restaurant next door. The accommodation ranges from single rooms to double/twins shared rooms for two people.
