# # # What is Kundalini Yoga?
Kundalini Yoga is a powerful practice known as the Yoga of Awareness. It reduces stress, improves mental clarity, and elevates your mood. Using postures, breathwork, mantra, and meditation, it activates your body-mind system, helping you discover your true, authentic self. Each class is unique, incorporating a variety of movements and techniques to enhance your well-being.

Last Friday we welcomed our children's school to join us in planting over 260 trees and shrubs at our regenerative parcel in Kripan. An initiative to nurture a connection with nature and to foster a mindset of regeneration for their future. 🌍💚 Seeing them get their hands dirty and immerse themselves in this project was truly inspiring.

"Man's attitude toward nature is critically important because we have now acquired a fateful power to alter and destroy nature. But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself. We are challenged as mankind has never been before to prove our maturity and our mastery, not of nature, but of ourselves."

Día 29. En cada viaje a Rioja, tenemos una parada obligatoria, visitar a .sampedro.7 , la persona con la que más hemos aprendido de esta región.
Quizás no sea tan mediático como otros productores (su carácter discreto a buen seguro tiene mucho que ver), pero para nosotros sin duda es uno de los más importantes vignerons no solo de Rioja sino de nuestro país.
Que difícil es catar más de 30 vinos en barrica y que cada uno muestre una personalidad propia y estén todos al máximo nivel. Que dificil es elaborar de forma absolutamente natural y conseguir una precisión como la que aúnan sus vinos y a la vez defender como nadie el terruño y la tradición enológica de su tierra.
Que viñedo!
Vignerons como David lo merecen todo.
A toast to all the women who are crushing it in the world of wine as we face our challenges to achieve equality. ~~ Brindemos por todas las mujeres que estamos pisando la uva en el mundo del vino y nos enfrentamos a nuestros retos para conseguir un mundo más igualitario.
Old-school and horse drawn 🤟
