Why Journey to Joy Retreat?

Journey To Joy retreat entails practical days of experience and knowledge in the lap of nature. It is designed to develop the full potential of life. It eliminates stress and expand awareness. You learn to live fully in the present moment. It includes some yoga (light stretching) and meditation but it is more than that. This will bring the mind into the present, not as a concept but as a conscious reality. It allows the body to get rid of stress and strain, tension and toxins; thereby improving our overall health. This retreat will give you more energy, enthusiasm and dynamism in action. This experience in the natural beauty will bring sense of deep calmness within and gives you an inner smile. It enables you to enjoy life and brings more happiness & freedom. A deep spiritual dimension will open up for people and It will bring harmony in your social relationships too because you will be balanced and more aware of yourself after this. A getaway with the scenic beauty of Skardu will refresh, recharge and blossom your mind, body & soul.
