Testimonials

Candace is a deeply kind and loving person who has dedicated her life to yoga both as a physical practice and as a way to navigate the world with kindness. She cares for her students and the world around her in a way that is infectiously filled with joy and is always checking in with her students to ensure they feel safe and supported. Attending a retreat with her is a lovely form of self-care artfully infused with easy laughter, thoughtful movement, and a deep appreciation for life. I had a lovely time and created truly lasting memories while on retreat with her in Ecuador and can't wait to see what she goes on to offer in the future.

I am so grateful for you! I have had almost ZERO PAIN in my right hip/thigh/back since your magic hands touched me last Monday! I haven’t felt this good in ages!

Jenni

Candace has helped me over the last 2 years with my overall health and wellness. What started as a challenge turned into Online Yoga everyday! I love the results and my mental health is so much better!

Brandi Brown

My session with Candace was phenomenal!! I had hip surgery almost a year ago and the recovery went well. Later, I developed tendinitis and my hip was hurting so bad. I haven't been able to sit cross leg in yoga, in a very long time but today I was able to hold it for about 15 minutes. I was extremely excited! I owe all this to the session and Candace was amazing!! She is very gentle, encouraging, and loving. The thing is that she is very nourishing and helped my hip to experience less pain in a long time! I am over the moon!! I would say to folks who are experiencing pain to see Candace!! She can help!!

Thank you for the most amazing retreat, in Mexico!! I traveled from South Africa, and what an absolute joy to not only have everything arranged for:- excursions, yoga, vegan foods, diving, beaches, markets wow but I felt totally cared for and looked after in a country that many told me ‘To Be Careful”. Mexico and Tulum - my stay at Holistica was life changing, the authentic experiences you arranged with a shaman - sweat lodge - sound healing and cacao ceremony was incredible, healing on a deeper level. Your classes were perfect by the end of my stay I was able to do poses that I could not do day one!!! I highly recommend anyone to do a retreat with you, I travelled alone and am over 60. Change you life, by changing your mind, we read and hear from many great yogi masters, well by experiencing retreats with Candace’s Yoga Retreats and adventures arranged by Damien; their offerings this will manifest for you a massive change in your life. Thank you so much.

The Importance of Setting Intentions

The Importance of Setting Intentions

by | ,

Setting intentions is a powerful practice that can significantly influence our lives. 
It acts as a guiding force that helps us clarify our goals, focus our energies, and navigate our daily actions. In a world filled with distractions, responsibilities, and uncertainties, the act of intentionally defining what we wish to achieve becomes crucial for both personal growth and overall well-being.To begin with, setting intentions instills a sense of purpose. When we establish clear intentions, we are essentially creating a roadmap for ourselves.

Peru is a country that has always been on my travel bucket list, and I was fortunate enough to finally make the trip recently.
