① The location
我们的旅修地
This summer we are back to Chongming Island, Shanghai for Yoga for Life signature Yoga & Mindfulness Retreat! Chongming Island is about 1-1.5 hours drive from downtown SH. The peaceful countryside has become a must-go place for a nature getaway for many people since COVID...
这个暑假我们的瑜伽正念旅修回到上海后花园崇明岛。 去年春节崇明岛的旅修，我们感受到了崇明岛安静祥和的乡村生活。崇明岛离上海市中心大概1-1.5个小时的车程，是足不出‘沪’，又想体验悠闲假期时光的首选。
We will be staying in a small Zen inspired hotel with a room designed for guests to meditate and a stunning outdoor swimming pool (pool size: 11*5*1.1m ). The hotel is located in a quiet village. Expect peace, countryside and nature around us!
如果你旅修喜欢奢侈感一点的住宿，这些行程我们住在崇明岛的一个禅意轻奢酒店，酒店还给客人贴心设计了一个打坐的禅房和户外泳池（长宽高：11*5*1.1m）。酒店在一个安静的村庄，门前流淌一条小河，周围很僻静！
Our hope is to provide you with activities and an environment to help you restore some inner peace through yoga, meditation and mindfulness. We’ll be sharing with you authentic and heartful approaches to these areas and guide your into igniting your passion for life, and discerning the 'dull energy' that’s stopping you from living the way your soul/spirit most desire, helping you connect to your most authentic, sacred and loving 'self'!
我们希望给你提供一个安静舒适的环境帮你去感受瑜伽／冥想带来的宁静。我们将与你分享一场深刻，原汁原味，独特的瑜伽／坐禅／疗愈／人生转变之旅，以引导你找到对人生，世界的热情，并教你技巧识别，摆脱现代生活造就的那个沉闷，懒散，没有激情的‘你’，帮助你找到灵魂/精神最渴望的生活方式！你就是那个最真实，充满智慧和爱的那个“你”！

④ The Details
重要提醒
During designated meal times, we will be observing Noble Silence. This means practicing mindful eating, where talking and the use of cellphones are not encouraged. 在指定的用餐时间，我们将保持神圣的沉默。这意味着我们要练习正念止语用餐，不推荐讲话和使用手机。
If you are new to practicing Noble Silence, you can gently observe your breath entering in and going out of your nostril. Observe your body sensations (e.g. eating, walking, etc.) when you are silent, this is to help take your attention away from a busy mind. 如果你对内观还不是很熟悉，你可以观察你的呼吸是怎样从鼻腔进出，或者你还可以观察身上细微的感觉，比如手指脚趾的感觉，走路吃饭的感觉。这些都是帮助你把意识从繁忙的思绪中带离出来。
Our yoga classes will be adjusted by the instructor based on the level of the group as a whole. All schedules are subject to change based on local weather and any other conditions that may occur. 我们的瑜伽课程安排会根据每个组里人群的需要进行变更，所有的行程都会跟着当地天气或者其它因素而变更。
During free time, you may choose to stay silent in your room, practice meditation, relax by the pool or explore the surrounding areas on your own. All our activities, aside from yoga, are not complusory. 自由时间，你可以选择自己探索周遭大自然，泳池边放松，或者你可以选择在自己房间或者瑜伽房静坐冥想。

💐I just wanted to let you know. I was journaling this morning, and I wanted to let you know I am truly grateful to have met you. And for all of the kindness, love, and energy you have shared with me and the groups. The tremendous resourcefulness and eagerness to help in you, and the ability to hold the space for so many different energies - I really admire these in you.--Clare (China) from Oct 1-4 & 5-7, 2021 Anji Retreat
💐Amazing experience. I felt safe, comfortable and found a calmness I didn’t know I had. There was a perfect mix of me time, yoga and group activities. The hotel was beautiful and came with an even more beautiful view. Not to mention the delicious vegetarian food. If you’re considering going, just do it! You will not regret it. Mandy has such a beautiful soul, I was delighted to be in her presence. This was my first yoga retreat with Mandy and I look forward to the next one.--Damilola (UK) from Aug 13-15, 2021 Anji Retreat

You are engaging, passionate and serious about yoga practice and for everyone to get the best out of their bodies, minds and the course materials . I hope you don’t mind me noting this down and sending to you - just wanted to give a meaningful ‘review’ ! --Julie (UK) from Aug 20-22, 2021 Anji Retreat

💐Thank you from the bottom (and all four corners which I now feel!) of my heart. I had a wonderful experience that will remain with me and help me moving forward. Thank you for your guidance, patience and sharing your endless knowledge on all things yoga and meditation related. You are an inspirational lady. I have returned to Shanghai feeling much more connected to myself, my body and my emotions. All of which was badly needed. It was a super way to kick start a new year for me and I thank you greatly.--Caroline (Ireland) from Dec 27-30, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐I felt very low on energy before, I've returned with so much energy! I really appreciate your teaching, the retreats are always improving as you add in new activities. There's always some lovely, carefully selected activities that really add to the whole experience--the massage and heart sutra painting were lovely additions. The loving kindness meditation has really stayed with me. --Sam (UK) from Oct 5-8, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐Thank you for the weekend! I loved the yoga and meditation sessions, I loved the place, the guesthouse, the hikes, the food and the organization ! The teacher was the best and without you its all could not be possible🙏🙏 My best yoga experience ever. --Nati (Poland) from July 17-19, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐Thank your for the retreat, it has been a very nice experience, even better than last time :)! I got up and bought myself some flowers! --Barbara (Italy) from Oct 1-4, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐Hi Mandy, I wanted to say thank you for the nice experience. I brought with me to Shanghai a beautiful sense of peace and positivity!--Eleonora (Italy) from Oct 1-4，2020 Anji Yoga Retreat

💐Mandy just wanted to say thank you again for the new experience with you. I had so many new insights and sensations from this trip even if I had my expectations before I came to be honest. Everything exceeded my expectations and I felt more connected with you from our conversations. Thank you for everything you’ve done. 期间有几个瞬间我确实觉得有想哭的冲动了 但是不好意思当大家面就泪奔万一收不住了哈哈. --Joy (China) from May 3-5, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐希望更多人可以参加你们的瑜伽旅修。真的很好。我从参加完之后每天早上用你分享的音乐（拜日式），做15分钟拜日式练习。从回来一直坚持到现在。体会颇深。受益非浅。对身体的觉知我这次特别有感受。--Randy (China) from May 3-5, 2020 Anji Yoga Retreat
💐The day after our retreat I woke up feeling, a bit achy, but mentally very at peace. Thank you so much for having so much passion and skill, I feel this really does ignite the same feelings in people that attend your class or retreats. If I move back to Shanghai I will always come to you for classes. You’re truly an amazing woman, I have so much respect and love for you. --Taryn (UK) from Oct 4-6, 2019 Yoga Retreat in Anji
💐I am thankful to Mandy for bringing me to this earthly paradise and creating a beautiful and deep experience. This was a truly memorable and profound yoga - and much more - dive for me.--George (Greece) from June 7-9, 2019 Yoga Retreat in Anji
💐Perfectly spent three days of the holidays, can't wait to go again for something similar in near future! I will give another try to practice meditation daily, that dancing one today really got me!--Lenka (Slovakia) from Oct 1-3, 2019 Yoga Retreat in Anji
💐I can't express how thankful I am for the retreat the passed few days. Sleep is usually my enemy and I really feel as though I learned practices that I can use going forward to help me with this. I fell asleep in a room full of people I had just met and that is absolutely unheard of. I also slept like a baby the last few nights and that is a gift I am so grateful for. Coming back to my yoga practice was also so great and being in my body and out of my head has been amazing, even if I struggled with strength. So thank you! I am so grateful. Hopefully I will be able to join you at a retreat some time during the summer. -- Lisa from May 1-3, 2019 Yoga Retreat in Yixing
💐好老师可以点燃人心，谢谢Mandy. --于萍 (China) from Oct 4-6, 2019 Yoga Retreat in Anji
