7 Days Intensive - Yoga & Meditation Retreat in The Himalayas

   

The 7 days intensive retreat is an initiative by our institute Yoga Surya International which is based in the Czech Republic. Allow yourself to experience the Himalayas in the most enriching way and absorb its radiating wisdom. This retreat invites all levels of practitioners, including absolute beginners. For advanced practitioners, this is a great opportunity to dive even deeper in your practice in the mystical land, known for its divinely charged energy conducive for growth and channeling.

Yoga, in its true nature means union. Throughout the course of the retreat, we would be working on ‘connection’ and exploration of inner faculties that govern our lives. Communion of the physical to the subtler aspects; body to the mind and beyond. We would actively work on building awareness and being 'present'.

During the course of 7 days, we would set on a journey of new learning, self-discovery and establishing a stronger bond, with our own body and mind. We would not just indulge in the practice of yoga but would go on to experience and live it, immerse in it.

We would start our day with morning yoga class which would include pranayama, shatkarma (cleansing practices), relaxation, yoga nidra, meditation and sometimes contemporary/alternate forms of movement. We will also try to look closely and understand how yoga is integrated with almost all spheres of our lives. How can we make a shift to a fuller, more content and meaningful life for ourselves and for others? Every day we would hike to a different beautiful location, to soak in the magical surroundings, witness and feel the vibrant mountains and indulge in some intense activity/ sessions which would allow us to feel more connected to ourselves, to mother nature and to our own true nature.

Through this retreat you get a chance of experiencing and seeing for yourself, the real yogic life. We have always heard of the Himalayas, as the abode for monks and sages, who remain hidden most of the year round doing penance. We have been conducting programs around this area for over a decade now and have thus established trust with these mystics over years. Meaning, we (the group) get direct access to their wisdom, raw and authentic. Just being around their presence can be an intensely transforming experience if one is aware and receptive.

The meeting point for all the participants is Uttarkashi on 25th May latest by 8 pm.

On 26th morning, we will proceed for Gangotri together with the group. We will spend the first three days in Gangotri, learning, absorbing and immersing in the exhilarating surrounding. This would also allow enough time for acclimatization before we go on further for the trek. On the fourth day we would be meandering through the unbeaten path of the Himalayan range, leading us to the Gaumukh glaciers; source of mother Ganga. We would spend two nights (tents) at our camoing site in Bhojbasa near Gaumukh. We have prior arrangements for tents so you don't need to bring it along. By 31st May noon, we will descend back to Gangotri and 1st June we arrive back in Uttarkashi.  

Note- Gaumukh trek will take place with a minimum of seven participants.

The retreat is designed to make you fully aware, alert and conscious of your own body & mind. You should be willing to come out of your comfort zone, discover new territories, within you. Let go, of inhibitions, fears and limitations. There will be a lot of new learnings but mostly unlearning, of the old habits and patterns that are hindering our personal growth.
