About
Fiona
Fiona Agombar, is an experienced yoga teacher who had chronic fatigue for 15 years but made a full recovery thanks to following a yoga lifestyle and with the help of her mentors Angela Stevens and Bill Feeney.
In 1997 Fiona wrote the definitive book on yoga, fatigue and M.E: Beat Fatigue with Yoga (Cherry Red Books).
Fiona originally studied with the Yoga for Health Foundation from 1993 and she now spends much time in India studying Patanjali’s yoga in depth at ashrams such as VYASA in Bangalore. She is a regular contributor to Yoga and Health magazine and has also made a DVD with Sue Delf of TriYoga.
She is currently studying yoga in the Krishnamacharya tradition under Sarah Ryan. Her mentor is Gill Lloyd, a student of Desikachar.
Fiona teaches Energy Yoga, which has been developed to increase vitality and health in the physical body whilst also working with the psycho-spiritual connection to quieten the mind.
The

This retreat will offer two gentle yoga sessions a day and is suitable for those with mild to moderate M.E or other chronic conditions – or for anyone who is just tired and simply wants to relax.
The yoga will be gentle therapeutic yoga aimed at those with fatigue conditions and will also be suitable for those with moderate or mild M.E. For those clients who want stronger sessions, Fiona may be able to teach this privately, at extra cost.

Vedanta course in Turkey at the Atami Hotel in Turkey with James Swartz and Hatha yoga with Fiona Agombar
Vedanta, or Jnana yoga, is often described as revealed knowledge, or the search for truth and is the foundation for any spiritual enquiry.
If you are interested in taking your spiritual questions further and are curious to know why are we really here, who are we and what truly makes us happy - and the big one - what is reality - then this course will be of great interest to you.
There
are not many true Vedanta teachers in the world today and James
(also known as Ram) is exceptional, so this is a great opportunity
to study with a guru in a fantastic location and enjoy some gentle
yoga with Fiona in the Krishnamacharya tradition as well. James
Swartz also has a book out How to Attain Enlightenment which is
available on Amazon.co.uk.
You can see information about James on www.shiningworld.com or you may like to see the interview with him on www.conscious.tv (click under programme directory then Traditions/Advaita.)
