SOUFRIERE, SAINT LUCIA (September
2, 2011) - Globally recognized wellness practitioners of yoga, personal
development and feng shui will lead the first Saint Lucia Health and Wellness
Retreat from November 17 to 20, 2011.
The inaugural Health and Wellness retreat has drawn three
internationally-renowned experts to Soufrère, one of Saint Lucia's most
alluring destinations.
John Schumacher, a leading iyengar yoga expert will tailor his daily yoga
workshops for participants.
With the fabulous Pitons peaks as a
backdrop, Dr. Stephen Brewer, acclaimed author of "The Everest
Principle", will lead seminars on achieving peak performance and optimal
health.
William Spear will guide attendees
through the intricacies of the ancient methods of intuitive feng shui - the art
of harmonizing the way people relate to their environments.
In addition to harmonizing a roster of speakers from across the health and
wellness world, the November event, which has drawn strong interest across the
Caribbean and beyond, offers an information-packed itinerary that includes
photography and art workshops, culinary classes, as well as pottery and
painting design.
Participants can also avail themselves of the hiking, snorkeling, mountain
biking and other outdoor activities for which Soufrière is known the world
over.
"We are delighted to be able to present such a distinguished and varied
panel of lifestyle experts," said Senator Allen Chastanet, Saint Lucia's
Minister of Tourism and Civil Aviation.
Minister Chastanet believes in an age of highly stressful environments,
travelers are looking to the Caribbean for integrated approaches to stress
management, fuller more rewarding lives and well-being.
The retreat is being produced by the Soufrière Foundation in partnership with
Soufrière's resort community and in concert with the Saint Lucia Tourist
Board.
"The natural beauty of Soufrère, the warmth of our people, and the
historical therapeutic benefit of the sulphur springs, make this UNESCO World
Heritage Site the perfect fit for the Health and Wellness Retreat,"
asserted Lynton Lamontagne, Chairman of the Foundation.
Soufrière, known as the "Eden of the Caribbean", is home to some of
the world's best hotels. In the recent Travel + Leisure 2011 World's Best
Awards, four resorts in Soufrière - Ladera Resort, Jade Mountain, Jalousie
Plantation and Anse Chastanet Resort - were named among the Top 25 Resorts in
the Caribbean, Bermuda and the Bahamas.
