Online Retreat with Nid+Adele

Overview of online content

Series Overview

This 12-week series has workshops, yoga classes and meditation classes to guide you gently from surviving to thriving in your daily life. And if thriving is already your gig, the deep dive into spiritual concepts and practices will be an invaluable aid to your spiritual journey.

Each week we host an in-depth discussion of a wellness theme of interest and facilitate a movement section to embody that week’s workshop theme. A yoga class and meditation class accompany each workshop to support you during the week, or as often as you wish to repeat them.

The Online Retreat series was first offered during Covid lockdowns in 2020 as a collaboration between Adele and Nid (jump below for more about Nid). Nid and Adele ran the program via Zoom to live participants and have once again shared the content here and on Nid’s website so that Members have access to the unique resources within the series.

Weekly Content

Each week, there is a workshop of approximately 90 min in two parts — a discussion and a movement section.

A 60-min themed yoga class each week draws mostly on Japanese yoga therapy and, in some cases, on Satyananda hatha yoga. The yoga classes tend to build from gentle at the beginning of the program to more intense towards the end, and modifications are offered for the more challenging poses.

The majority of the weekly meditation classes are about 50 min long and contain breathwork, a full-length Yoga nidra (this translates as ‘yogic sleep’ — it deeply ana blissfully regenerates the body and mind), followed by a unique meditation practice each week.

We recommend that you start with the first workshop and accompanying yoga and meditation in your first week and progress through the series, one per week, in the order given. Of course, you can mix it up or progress much faster if you prefer, and all recordings can be repeated as often as you wish.

Course handouts

The course comes with a recipe card each week that you can download and have fun with in the kitchen. Yum.

  • 'Having gone on the most wonderful discovery trip for the last 12 weeks I feel about ready to start at square 1! It was a torrent of information and a smorgasboard of delightful practical experiences, all of which I need to spend time with to absorb and feel my way into.'

    Nancy

  • 'I loved ... learning with a teacher who is very knowledgeable and experienced in such a wide range of meditation styles, and who is open-minded about presenting the benefits of all styles.'

    Currrent student

  • 'Adele is thoughtful, thorough, and genuine.'

    Susie

  • 'I loved the course. Thank you so much. I have not had a practice before and I am keen to start one and practice.'

    Current student

  • 'I have a much clearer understanding of the difference between mindfulness and meditation, the benefits of both, and the complementary nature of the two. A vastly expanded understanding of the range of practices that are called meditation, along with a realisation of what it is that makes them meditation.'

    Current student

  • The course has helped me realise that there are many ways of stilling my mind and finding deeper connection with others, and our world, and the life force that moves within all of us and this. Together we have been led through so many styles and I have had moments where I know that this particular style speaks to me. I now have the knowledge to go on and deepen my experience in these areas.'

    Nancy

  • 'Wonderful course. I know so much more than before and I have experienced things I never had before. Thank you.'
