Practising it with constance allows you to maintain a healthy mind and body, an essential condition in this difficult, uncertain period.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\nLilla<\/a>, our legendary Hungarian yoga teacher, loves spending her free time in the open air, going on treks and doing other outdoor activities. During her walks, she always practices yoga in the remote and enchanting places <\/strong>that she finds.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\nIn this article we talk about her favourite spots on the Eastern riviera where you can do yoga in the open air, immersed in the wildest nature and in the traditions of the area<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Madonna di Caravaggio, Mount Orsena<\/h1>\n\n\n

\n\n\nLose yourself alone in nature\u2019s silence, far from the slightest sound.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\nThe Madonna di Caravaggio is found at 615 metres above sea level at the top of Mount Orsena (also called Mount Caravaggio) in the hamlet of Santa Maria del Campo. It is sited where three ridges meet and can therefore be reached with lovely walks from Rapallo, Ruta di Camogli and from the Uscio valley.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\nFrom the mountain\u2019s peak, exactly where the sanctuary is built, you have an amazing 360\u00b0 view over the hills and coastline of all of Liguria, After the uphill trek needed to reach the top, a yoga session is a perfect pick-me-up for stretching your muscles. A few moments of meditation and attention in nature\u2019s silence<\/strong> and a minute or two of long, deep breathing will \u201cfill you up\u201d with new energy.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\nDuring the weekend, the Sanctuary is often very busy with hikers. To enjoy tranquility and solitary peace, we suggest that you go there on weekdays or early in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n

2. Montallegro<\/h1>\n\n\n

\n\n\nLocated high up above Rapallo, Montallegro is another place immersed in nature where you can switch off from everyday noise and stress, indulging in genuine contact with nature. Practising yoga up here has something mystical about it<\/strong>, especially if you then delve into the religious past and miraculous anecdotes that make this place so suggestive.<\/p>\n\n\n
