Yoga & Meditation Enlighten
To keep the body in good health is a duty…otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear – Buddha
Yoga is a physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in ancient India. First codified by the sage Patanjali in his Yoga Sutras around 400 C.E, the practice was in fact handed down from teacher to student long before this text arose. The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj, meaning “to yoke,” or “to unite”. The practice aims to create union between body, mind and spirit, as well as between the individual self and universal consciousness. The ultimate experience of yoga is liberation from suffering because in improves mental health, helps stress relief, it may reduce anxiety and improves the quality of life.
Meditation is a practice of mindfulness, or focusing on a particular object, thought, or activity to train attention and awareness. There’s no correct and wrong way to meditate. That’s because meditation can take many different forms to experience the formless state of being. Many studies show nowadays the immense benefits of meditation such as decreasing symptoms of anxiety or depression, improving ability to think, concentrate and solve problems and better ability to adapt to and overcome emotions.
Yoga & Meditation Variety
At Navutu Dreams, you have the opportunity to learn humble practices of yoga such as: Hatha, Kundalini, Yin, Restorative Reiki, Shamanic Yoga as well Meditation classes.
Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga is a branch of yoga that emphasizes physical postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), and meditation to promote overall well-being and balance. It serves as a foundational practice for many other styles of yoga and is characterized by its slower pace and focus on alignment and mindfulness. Hatha Yoga aims to harmonize the body and mind, making it accessible to practitioners of all levels, and is often used to improve flexibility, strength, and relaxation.
Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini Yoga is a spiritual and physical practice that combines postures, breath control (pranayama), meditation, and the chanting of mantras to awaken the dormant energy at the base of the spine, known as Kundalini. This form of yoga aims to elevate consciousness and promote self-awareness, balance, and inner peace. It emphasizes the integration of mind, body, and spirit, often incorporating specific sequences of movements and meditative techniques designed to stimulate the chakras and enhance overall well-being. Kundalini Yoga is often described as a transformative practice that can lead to profound personal growth and spiritual awakening.
Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on holding postures for extended periods, typically ranging from three to five minutes or longer. It targets the deeper connective tissues of the body, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia, promoting flexibility and enhancing circulation in the joints. Unlike more dynamic forms of yoga, Yin Yoga emphasizes stillness and introspection, allowing practitioners to cultivate mindfulness and relaxation. This practice is often complemented by breath awareness and meditation, making it beneficial for both physical and mental well-being.
Yin Yang Yoga
Yin Yang Yoga is a holistic practice that combines the principles of Yin and Yang to create a balanced approach to yoga. Yin yoga focuses on passive, longer-held postures that target the connective tissues, promoting deep relaxation and flexibility. In contrast, Yang yoga emphasizes dynamic, active movements that build strength and stamina. By integrating both styles, Yin Yang Yoga encourages a harmonious flow of energy, fostering physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This practice is suitable for individuals seeking to cultivate balance in their yoga routine and overall life.
Yuan Qigong
Yuan Qigong is a practice that combines elements of traditional Chinese Qigong with yoga techniques. It focuses on cultivating and balancing vital energy (Qi) within the body through a series of gentle movements, breathing exercises, and meditation. The practice aims to enhance physical health, mental clarity, and emotional well-being by promoting relaxation, flexibility, and mindfulness. Yuan Qigong Yoga is accessible to individuals of all fitness levels and emphasizes the connection between body, mind, and spirit.
Aqua Move Yoga
Aqua Move Yoga is a unique form of yoga practiced in water, typically in a pool setting. This practice combines traditional yoga postures with the buoyancy and resistance of water, allowing for a gentle yet effective workout. The water supports the body, reducing strain on joints and enhancing flexibility while providing a calming environment. Aqua Move Yoga focuses on breath control, balance, and relaxation, making it suitable for individuals of all fitness levels, including those with physical limitations. The practice promotes overall well-being, stress relief, and a deeper connection to the body.
Sound Bath
Sound Bath with singing bowls is a therapeutic experience that uses the resonant sounds and vibrations produced by Tibetan or crystal singing bowls to promote relaxation and healing. During a sound bath, participants typically lie down in a comfortable position while the bowls are played, creating a soothing soundscape that envelops the space. The vibrations from the bowls can help to reduce stress, enhance meditation, and facilitate emotional release. This practice is often used to balance energy, improve mental clarity, and foster a deep sense of peace and well-being. Sound baths are accessible to individuals of all backgrounds and can be a powerful tool for mindfulness and self-care.
Reiki & Restorative
Reiki & Restorative yoga are complementary practices that promote relaxation, healing, and overall well-being. Reiki is a form of energy healing that involves the gentle placement of hands on or near the body to channel universal life energy. Practitioners aim to balance the body’s energy, reduce stress, and facilitate emotional and physical healing. Restorative yoga, on the other hand, is a gentle style of yoga that focuses on relaxation and rejuvenation. It uses props such as blankets, bolsters, and blocks to support the body in various poses, allowing for deep relaxation and the release of tension. Together, these practices can enhance mindfulness, reduce anxiety, and promote a sense of peace and balance, making them ideal for those seeking holistic approaches to health and wellness.

Yoga Instructors Navutu Dreams
Yvonne
Hello, my name is Yvonne. I am a certified Yoga Teacher, Intuitive Reiki Master Teacher & Therapist, Mindfulness Mediation Coach and Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT®) Practitioner. Living a balanced physical, emotional, mental and spiritual life is my mission and supporting others in doing the same is my passion.
As a reformed stressed out, corporate power suit wearing slave to the grind, I spent years working on myself, letting go of who I was and getting to know who I am. This continues to be a lifelong practice. My knowledge is learned from a blend of ancient traditions (yoga, meditation, reiki), science & psychology (Hypnosis, NLP, coaching) and my wisdom has been gained by transforming my own life using the practices that I now offer. My practice and teaching methods embrace and encourage self healing through mastering energy, intention and unconditional love. I look forward to meeting you, sharing, supporting and growing with you.
Tonneel
My name is Tonneel, born and raised in a country rich in diversity, the rainbow nation – South Africa.
I am deeply in tune with the fact that life is a gift and to live each day with gratitude. This drives my sense of purpose in life, to experience it fully and practice living it mindfully.
Coming from a background of trauma, my personal life experiences led me, and continue to do so, towards my life passions and career choices.
Choosing to learn and understand more about human behaviour, I applied myself to psychology and criminology studies, and received training in yoga and massage therapy. I left home to get beyond the story narrative and embark on a journey exploring alternative healing methods.
I’ve lived, travelled and worked in South East Asia, where I have worked with children and in the hospitality industry at health resorts. These experiences have truly opened up a deeper sense of knowing that we are all interconnected to the many dimensions in life and feel honoured to have met many on the journey of self-discovery, all sharing their truths and wisdom which have all brought me to a deeper understanding of who I am.
Children are excellent teachers. Seeing the world through the lenses of a child’s eyes, they remind one to connect with our own inner child, express our feelings and to live in the present, but above all to be curious and full of joy, and bring this playful energy into daily life.
In SEA I was introduced to different styles of yoga such as Ashtanga, yin and Hatha, discovered and practiced forms of breath work and Vipassana meditation, EFT – Tapping (emotional freedom technique), psychosomatic trauma therapy and learnt new things in the health and wellness industry such as detox and fasting.
Every day is an opportunity for me to learn and expand my knowledge in energy medicine and therapy. I am currently working with a mentor, completing a course called – Crossing the Thresholds of Power: Activating Radical transformation with Kali, Ayahuasca and Sekhmet to help with my own inner – standing and reprogramming of the workings of the mind and body, to deconstruct old belief systems, to revaluate and reconstruct the roles of feminine and masculine energies. In time to come I will continue to advance my training in other areas of interest.
I am a firm believer in putting goodness into the world for the better, by making well-ness accessible to others and sharing my knowledge and skills set, empowering people from all walks in life on their own journey of health and transformation.
Evelyn
With a curiosity in healing practices and Eastern philospohy Evelyn’s journey began with yoga. A devoted practice spanning many years inspired her to study in India.
Through deeper exploration of a holistic approach to her own health she discovered the transformative effects of Qigong. She became a Yuan Qigong teacher in 2016 and has since taught regular classes and workshops, continuing her studies through retreats and in person and online training.
Evelyn is also passionate about the healing effects of Sound. Beginning with chanting mantra and Kirtan, she experienced the ability of intentional and devotional use of sound to restore balance and uplift the spirit. Her first sound bath with Himalayan singing bowls had a profound impact on her sense of wellbeing and clarity of thought. Her desire to dive deeper into this healing modality took her to Vietnam and Nepal for specialised training and she continues to expand her knowledge and skills.
Evelyn loves holding space for others to also learn and experience the positive and uplifting benefits of Qigong and Sound Healing.
Tommy
Upon attending my first yoga class in 2006 in Budapest (my long time home), I felt the benefits deeply. After 25 chaotic years of working in marketing, I felt dissatisfied with my life; l have decided to shift away from having a packed schedule toward leading a more balanced, simpler, slower existence and focusing on just being happy. I craved a change and moved to Thailand in 2018 where my focus shifted to yoga, and my practice became a central component of my everyday life.
I am still on this journey: I am working hard on being happier and healthier, sometimes more successfully, sometimes less, but I am deeply thankful to have found yoga, as the more I practice, the more I understand the world. At times, I have truly no idea what is going on around me, yet it is actually in these moments which yoga helps stabilize me the most. I now appreciate that I don’t have to know and I don’t have to understand everything. I am trying to think less about who I am supposed to be and more about who I really am.
I completed my yoga teacher training in May 2023 in Rishikesh, India. I am enthusiastic about both sharing my personal experiences and learning from others about yoga, healthy living, and life! As a teacher, my greatest joy comes at the end of a practice when I see real change on the participants’ faces, with tension released, minds slowed down, and bodies experiencing the deepest sense of calm and inner peace.
