But we know that we can really lead the lives we dream of, we can fulfil all our dreams, desires and needs… We already have the abundance we deserve… It’s up to us rediscover it, remember what is truly ours and open towards our new possibilities.

Our retreat is about stripping back the layers of conditioning and burdened emotion…Peeling back the worries, fears and stresses… Shedding the old stuff that no longer serves us and stepping into the newness of our truth.

THE LOCATION & VENUE

Nestled within the jungles of a wave-fringed island, the Lotus Shores Yoga, Surf & Farm Retreat is a commune for yogis, seekers, surfers, and conscious adventurers travelling to Siargao to rest, manifest, connect, get barrelled and (or) enlightened. Our accommodations were created to support a deep integration of the learnings, insights and breakthroughs that arise from the practice. It is in between sadhana when we shed our outdated ways of being and integrate the newly awakened parts of ourselves. This can only take place in an environment that encourages rest and deep listening.

As a space dedicated to the remembrance of our true nature, our everyday activities (eating, walking, communicating, etc.) are a continuation of our practices (sadhana) and are approached with equal mindfulness, reverence, and devotion.

Whether or not one practices, they would benefit from the closeness to nature, open spaces, and the uplifting and positive environment of the retreat.

It was founded on the goal of Yoga, the realisation of the unity of Being, often experienced in the act of wave-riding. Life at the retreat is a celebration, exploration and preservation of the sacred wisdom that yoga and surfing have to teach us about ourselves and the world around us. The commune is home to the island’s only yoga center, Yoga Dojo, and Kali Ma Cafe, a plant-based kitchen and restaurant.

The rooms are single, double or triple occupancy, with mosquito net, ceiling fans, side tables and dresser. The rooms are single-sex and there are mixed rooms with shared toilets & showers. The accomodation is beautifully designed around nature, tranquil, spacious and relaxing.

TESTIMONIALS

Kay Quintos

“Thank you for such a wonderful experience connecting with myself, the source, the universe and welcoming infinite grace and abundance. I really valued being able experience allowing grace and abundance to flow through me without resistance, making me feel whole and accepting of what is. Being able to feel and receive overflowing, great positive energy, joy and love, that I am able to share my whole self to others is such a blessing! The experience helped me see my purpose and mission in life with clarity and joy, the greatest gifts I can share with others. The retreat was just perfect!”

James Potts

“Natasha is a powerful, compassionate and transformative facilitator with a broad range of integrated healing skills and modalities that she fuses with her natural inner wisdom. She is a potent and powerful healer and her tools for change and transformation are at the cutting edge. She has been through her own personal healing journey which she uses to guide her clients as she know what it takes to truly heal and transform. I’ve been on Natasha’s retreats and always felt held and supported in a safe and beautiful place.”

Kristina Batty

“I have attended several retreats held by Natasha and Sri Yantra Retreats, with each one being deeply healing and nourishing. Natasha’s retreats are beautifully cultivated with every detail accounted for, even ensuring the stars are aligned for optimum work; Yummy nutritious food, plenty of time for one on one and a full program of processes to go deep into the healing. I would highly highly recommend!”

Lora Woellhaf

“The retreat allowed me to connect and be vulnerable. I mostly appreciated the guidance in creating a daily practice that contributes to my wellbeing and allows me to form positive relationships with people at work and with my family. It was liberating to be able to express and unfold through movement and release inhibitions and then counter that feeling by centring and focusing the mind and create unlimited energy that eventually transforms into love, passion and creativity in relationships and actions.

After the retreat I talked with clarity in my job, I loved the people who were close to me who I needed to show love to, I had energy to finish the work I need to do, and I paused and waited before reacting. The retreat has helped me slow down my thoughts and connecting to my intentions, very powerful.”
