    All about the Svadhyaya – A Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh.

    A Journey to Stillness, Clarity & Inner Joy
    4 Days | A healing pause by the Ganges | Rishikesh
    In a world of endless doing, this retreat offers a soft place to land. Nestled
    in the heart of the Himalayas, by the sacred Ganga, this journey is for
    those who long to slow down, breathe deeper, and return to themselves.
    Through ancient yogic wisdom, gentle rituals, and mindful community, we
    invite you to step into a space of stillness and soul.
    Who is this for?
    – Anyone feeling emotionally tired, anxious, or creatively stuck
    – Anyone navigating a transition—career, relationship, or identity
    – Anyone who simply needs space. Quiet. Clarity. And breath.
    You don’t need to be flexible. You don’t need to be “spiritual.” You only
    need to come as you are.

    1. Day 1 Arrival & Grounding into Sacred Space

      Arrival by 12:00 PM – Welcome & Check-in
      You’re greeted not with formalities, but with warmth. A cup of herbal tea, a gentle smile, and the fragrance of incense. It’s time to leave the noise behind and step into silence.

      2:00 PM – Opening Havan (Sacred Fire Ceremony)
      We gather around the fire, a sacred ritual to burn away what’s no longer needed—doubt, fatigue, anxiety. As the flames rise, so do your intentions. A priest chants ancient mantras invoking protection, clarity, and grace. This is where your retreat truly begins.

      4:30 PM – Herbal Refreshments & Quiet Time
      Rest, wander, or journal. Your pace is your own.

      5:30 PM – Evening Philosophy: “The Yogic Way of Living”
      We explore not yoga as exercise, but as a way of life. This session is about rediscovering simplicity, mindfulness, and presence. A gentle conversation that plants seeds for your inner journey.

      7:00 PM – Sattvic Dinner
      Fresh, nurturing, and cooked with intention—our meals are an act of self-love. You’ll feel the difference in every bite.

      8:30 PM – Yoga Nidra (Guided Yogic Sleep)
      As your body rests, your subconscious begins to heal. Yoga Nidra is a deep meditative rest that reaches into places even sleep cannot. A guided journey into surrender.

      10:00 PM – Silent Hours Begin
      Let the quiet wrap around you like a shawl. This is your time to simply be.

    2. Day 2 Insight & Inner Alignment

      6:30 AM – Morning Yoga & Pranayama
      We rise with the sun. Through gentle asanas and conscious breathwork, we awaken the body and center the mind. This is not a performance—it’s a practice of coming home to yourself.

      8:00 AM – Nourishing Breakfast

      10:00 AM – One-on-One Vedic Astrology Sessions Begin
      Each participant receives a private session with a skilled astrologer. This is not prediction—it’s self-understanding. You’ll explore your karmic blueprint, hidden strengths, and the lessons your soul chose for this lifetime.

      1:00 PM – Lunch

      3:30 PM – Tea & Satsang: The Power of Shared Truths
      We gather in a circle—no masks, no roles. Just honest sharing, storytelling, music, or silence. Sometimes, the greatest healing comes from being seen.

      5:30 PM – Evening Restorative Yoga
      A gentle flow that softens the body and prepares it for deep rest. You’ll stretch not just muscles, but the tension you didn’t know you were holding.

      7:00 PM – Early Light Dinner

      8:30 PM Sound Bath & Healing Circle
      The vibrations of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and ancient instruments help release trapped energy and emotions. You simply lie down, receive, and let the sound do its quiet magic.

      10:00 PM – Good Night

    3. Day 3 Nature, Stillness & Sound

      6:00 AM – Sunrise Forest Hike + Yoga by the Ghat or in the Woods
      We walk in silence. The early morning mist, the sound of birds, the rhythm of your steps—all are part of the meditation. When we arrive at the ghat or forest clearing, we lay down our mats. Yoga in nature connects us to something bigger—unfiltered, alive, whole.

      8:30 AM – Breakfast

      10:30 AM – Spa Healing Sessions
      Choose from traditional Ayurvedic treatments—Abhyanga oil massage to release deep-rooted stress, or Shirodhara, where warm oil flows gently over your third eye to calm your nervous system. This is self-care at its most sacred.

      1:00 PM – Lunch and some Free Time

      4:30 PM – Ganga Aarti & Tea at Parmarth Niketan
      This isn’t just a ritual—it’s a feeling. As the sun dips into the river, the air is filled with chants, fire, flowers, and devotion. You don’t need to understand the language to feel the shift inside.

      7:30 PM – Dinner

      8:30 PM – Reflection & Experience Sharing
      Sharing is a great way to release. Enjoy a connected circle of meaningful conversations.

      10:00 PM – Good Night

    4. Day 4 Integration & Return

      7:30 AM – Morning Silence, Reflection & Journaling
      You’ll be offered simple journaling prompts to help integrate your experience. What do you want to carry back? What are you ready to release?

      8:30 AM – Final Breakfast & Closing Circle
      We sit in a circle one last time, share our stories, hold space for each other, and give gratitude. You leave not just rested, but reawakened.

      10:00 AM – Check-out & Departure
      But truly, something within you stays.
