What to do on your free time
Yoga, Mediation & Daily Free Time
Daily Yoga and afternoon yoga workshops will be offered to deepen your practice & explore other dimensions of yoga philosophy, meditation and gentle breath work.
Throughout the retreat, the practices and activities are optional. We encourage you to trust and be guided by your energy levels and intuition. Make the most of the ample free time you’ll have to do as much, or as little as you choose.
Practices and workshops can be modified for all levels, however a general level of fitness is required.
Self Care Massage / Spa Treatment
We hope the complimentary 1 hour – Self Care massage or therapy from the Wellness Centre will help get you into relaxation mode. If you love a good spa-day, why not make it a daily Retreat self care ritual? There’s many options to choose from and luxuriate in indulgent or therapeutic treatments.
We’ll see you in post-yoga/meditation/swim/massage bliss.
Adventure
Feeling a bit more adventurous? For those who enjoy some action on vacation, you can take out a kayak or SUP (stand up paddle board), hire a scooter, hike to a waterfall or the local Thai Temple. You may also want to explore some of Koh Samui’s iconic beaches, markets and shopping.
Thai Cultural Excursions & Adventures
In addition to plenty of great yoga and relaxation time, there will also be opportunities for cultural experiences, including a guided walking tour of a local Thai temple & snorkle tour on a traditional Thai longboat.
One day we will arrange to visit a spa nestled in a tranquil forest with healing herbal steam rooms, natural rock cave, fresh water plunge pools and delicious aromatic body scrubs.
The friendly staff at Samahita Retreat Centre are always happy to help arrange experiences to compliment your retreat experience.
Relax
Relaxation comes easily in our little slice of paradise. Enjoy the serenity of the beach, or pool with the ocean at your feet. One of our favourite yoga retreat past times is taking a swim after the morning practice and then sipping a fresh coconut with a good book, snoozing in between ocean / pool dips.
It’s completely up to you how you like to Retreat: do yoga, meditate, relax, feel nourished. Repeat 🙂
