Whispers of the Himalayas – A Sacred Retreat in the Heart of Nepal
March 22–29, 2026
A Journey Into Stillness, Spirit and Himalayan Grace
Nepal has a way of softening you the moment you arrive. The air is thinner, the mountains stand ancient and patient and every prayer flag seems to whisper slow down, breathe, come home to yourself.
Whispers of the Himalayas is an 8-day journey designed to help you reconnect with presence through yoga, meditation, sacred Buddhist spaces, sunrise viewpoints and the healing energy of the mountains.
This retreat blends spiritual depth with gentle adventure: monasteries, stupas, sound healing, sunrise meditations, lakeside peace and quiet moments of transformation.
Rooted in presence, compassion and connection, this retreat welcomes you home to your breath, your heart and your inner truth.



Daily Practice & Intentional Living
Each day begins in quiet devotion grounding yoga, mindful breathwork and meditation inspired by Buddhist principles of awareness, compassion and simplicity. We move gently, breathe deeply and allow the mountains, forests, and open sky to hold us. These morning practices are designed to help you soften into presence and start the day with clarity and ease.
Afternoons unfold at a slower rhythm: a mix of sacred excursions, personal reflection and restorative rest. You’ll wander through ancient stupas, sit in peaceful monastery gardens, listen to chanting winds and share stories over nourishing meals. There is ample space to journal, integrate, connect, or simply exist in your own quiet sanctuary.
Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or have years of practice behind you, this retreat meets you exactly as you are with spaciousness, kindness and gentle guidance. The intention is simple: to help you return to yourself one mindful breath at a time.

Why Nepal?
There’s a certain magic that lives in Nepal – an energy that can’t quite be described, only felt. Nestled in the embrace of the mighty Himalayas, this land has long been a sanctuary for seekers, sages and travellers drawn by something deeper than scenery.
In Nepal, the silence speaks, the mountains teach and the air carries a sacred stillness that gently pulls you inward. It is a place where ancient wisdom lives alongside raw natural beauty – where simplicity becomes luxury and presence becomes prayer.
For those on the yogic path, Nepal is not just a destination—it’s a mirror. It reflects the vastness within you, reminding you of your own strength, stillness, and soulfulness. Whether trekking through forest trails, meditating under prayer flags, or moving through asanas surrounded by peaks, the experience here is grounding, expansive and unforgettable.
To practice yoga in Nepal is to connect more deeply with yourself – held by nature, uplifted by spirit.
