" Women Yoga & Self Mastery Training in Baja"

Namaskar!

"Peace can be reached through meditation on the knowledge which dreams give. Peace can also be reached through concentration upon that which is dearest to the heart."

After traveling through many countries back packing, hiking and sailing it is now good to BE grounded connecting with mother earth. Over the last 13 days I have been blessed with students arriving from outside Mexico to follow the 8 fold path of Patanjali, study, learn and practice yoga, meditation and other yoga and Ayurvedic principles here at Clarananda. An ocean front property that we own near Todos Santos, Baja in Mexico.

Here at Clarananda, I offer unique Women Yoga Teacher Training / Certification and Self Mastery programs a few times per year internationally recognized by Yoga Alliance. Personalized, unique, intimate and intense these programs run for 12.5 days with a max of 3 to 6 students per program. I am honoured and blessed to witness the dedication, committment and transformation of women that come from around the world to move forward to enhancing their spiritual yoga practice and next level of self Mastery.

Clarananda is a magical zen garden, possessing extraordinary or mystical natural beauty. We have set up a green living environment with solar energy (off the grid) organic garden and back to nature living. To be here in the desert with the magnificant sunsets, abundant cactus plants and many birds and other wildlife is a gift to behold. Life does hold many treasures.

Here are a few words from the women that experienced Clarananda.

"The yoga, pranayama and meditation practices are delightful, intense and life changing. A tremendously valuable experience. For those on a path to self discover or personal growth, you've come to the right place. Clarananda is truly a remarkable setting and the food is amazing." Tracy Ernst - Calgary, Alberta

"Clarananda is beautiful and being in nature is truly a special experience. The program has been challenging and rewarding. The intensity of learning and yoga was nicely balanced with personal growth time. I have been pleased with my own experience and have gained so much more knowledge of yoga and all it's related branches." Beatrice Winny - Ontario, Canada

We are abundant, we are love, we are grace, we are the ones we have been waiting for!

So be it - Om Shanti In deep peace - Valma

Women Sailing Baja, Sea of Cortez

A visionary voyage in one of the most biologically diverse bodies of water in the world

"The Vermillion Sea or Sea of Cortez"

"The Sea of Cortez is the world's acquarium" Jacques Cousteau

We board and start our trip from La Paz - meaning "Peace" the capital of southern Baja and very much a Mexican city. More laid back and right on the Sea of Cortez. I love to walk the promenade along the waterfront.

La Paz markets are colourful and fun too!

We sail 20 nm to Isla Espiritu Santos just north of La Paz. The island is connected by Isla Partida by a narrow isthums. The islands are protected under UNESCO as a unique biosphere

During our sailing adventure we see migratory species sush as the Humpback Whale, California Gray Whale, Dolphins, sealions and mantra rays.

Our sailing takes us across to Isla San Francisco a small very distinctive island with white sandy beaches and steep rocky ridges.

Hiking the ridges of Isla San Francisco in the Sea of Cortez, Baja

The sail is wonderful with dolphins off the bow, fishing is great, swimming and hiking are a joy to behold. Great sunsets while cooking our catch on the back deck

Great sunsets while cooking our catch on the back deck.

Each morning or sunset we move to the rhythmn of nature with a Qigong and light yoga asana.

The Sea of Cortez is unique in so many beautiful ways. The contrast of colours, the huge Baja night sky, expansive ocean vistas, startling white sandy beaches with an array of wildlife are truly amazing.

Now heading to my hacienda on the west coast of the peninsula near Todos Santos.

I smile with the memory of the Vermillion Sea. Adios - Valma
