I don’t know about you, but this is the time of year that I start craving some Vitamin Sea!
Did you know that floating in nature, or feeling weightless in a hammock, or even utilizing a “flotation tank”, also known as a “sensory deprivation chamber” has many benefits! It is most often used as a method for relaxation and to boost creativity. It can allow one to engage in a deep meditative state, regardless of meditation experience.
Watch this video to feel some summer vibes and a taste of serenity.
Lastly, remember you can do anything for 5 minutes so why not to do something positive for your well being. 💕
I get it, it’s hard to get outdoors when you would rather stay cozied up inside where it’s warm, but did you know that walking in nature can decrease depression, improve your wellbeing and mental health, and lower perceived stress???
Sometimes all we have is 5 minutes!! So this is just a friendly reminder to try and spend those 5 minutes doing something POSITIVE for yourself!!
Imagine how you would feel if you implemented walking in nature for 5 minutes a day, 7 days a week!!!😊

Happy New Year everyone! Since we have entered into a new decade, I have been fired up to set intentions, put goals into action and manifest my wildest dreams. I kicked the new year off by creating a Vision Board for my “2020 Vision” and hung it up by my bathroom sink so I would see it every day!
Did you know that a vision board is a concrete representation of your desires and aspirations for a compelling life? They are also fun to create and can serve as an invaluable tool to motivate and inspire you towards concrete daily action in pursuit of your biggest and most important life goals!
A vision board is a sacred place that displays what you want in life. When you hang it in a space where you see it daily, your vision board brings your goals and aspirations to life…
So check out my latest episode on 5 MINUTES TO MINDFULNESS and take 5 minutes to create a vision board that will give you a clear picture of where you want to get to!
Welcome to the AquaHolic Journey RYT 200-hour training in Brazil!
The AquaHolic Yoga Teacher Training is an Internationally accredited certification with the Yoga Alliance. It is more than just a yoga teacher training program; it’s a journey to an unforgettable life experience. If you are ready to encounter new depths of practice, establish lifelong connections and explore unmatched opportunities for personal growth, our transformative programs will inspire you to uncover the fundamental layers of yoga while unearthing the deepest layers of yourself.
The AquaHolic Journey Curriculum
This Yoga Teacher Training program will provide you with the necessary credentials and ability to teach all over the world. Our 200-Hour Curriculum uniquely blends the history and philosophical teachings of yoga with the essential components of asana, anatomy and sequencing.

We guarantee you that this experience will be richly informative, empowering, inspiring and completely unforgettable.
The training is specifically designed to help you: ~ Advance your study of asana (including proper alignment, benefits, and contraindications of the physical postures) ~ Understand the principles of anatomy and body mechanics ~ Explore the science and art of sequencing ~ Learn and practice hands-on adjustments ~ See and interpret how energy moves through the body ~ Use props to improve or modify a posture ~ Cultivate your voice, both as a teacher and as an individual ~ Build confidence through practice teaching ~ Gain a broader understanding of yoga history and philosophy ~ Learn and define the Sanskrit names of postures
The Destination
Our Itacaré, Brazil Yoga Teacher Training program will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in your yoga practice and give you a deep sense of the rich culture that Brazil has to offer. The famous surf town – Itacaré – is located in the center of a very potent land that provides jungle, mountains, rivers, canyons and beautiful beaches to roam and explore. Deep in the Atlantic Rainforest, surrounded by lush green rainforest and bright blue palm tree lined skies, you will find yourself truly connected to Mother Earth.
Itacaré is the thriving cultural and spiritual surf Mecca of Brazil. Home to Brazil’s yoga, art and health scene, it provides a sanctuary in an idyllic, nurturing space, full of the revitalizing qualities of the abundant land. This program focuses on self love and self care as a path to bliss and awakening. The opportunities for massage, surf classes, and yoga are abundant in this beautiful place!
Location and Travel Logistics
Welcome to our hidden tropical oasis, a small family owned hotel close to the beach. You will be staying in bungalows that are hidden under Cacau and Mango trees. Each room has air conditioning, a safety box and of course a bathroom. Rooms sleep one or two Yogis.
In the reception, you find an area to lounge in, and always a happy face. If you look to your left you will also find a bar and (most of the time) a bartender who can provide you with a piece of heaven. Healthy choices or mood boosters are up to you, we are in Brazil – everything is allowed…even for yogis!
You can choose to fly to Ilheus or Salvador. If you fly to Ilheus (a smaller airport where airfairs might be more expensive) you will only need to take a 1 hour cab ride to Itacaré. However if you fly into Salvador’s International Airport, you can either take a cab ride to Itacaré (costs around 800 BRL) or you will cross over to Itaparica island with the ferry and from there take the bus to Itacaré (costs around 50 BRL). Both options take about 6 hours. The Soulful Kind would be happy to help you organize a reliable cab from Ilheus or Salvador if you notify us beforehand by email.
