ABOUT
I am so excited to announce my first group retreat in Rishikesh, one of my all-time favourite Indian destinations! Set in the stunning foothills of the Himalayas on the banks of the sacred Ganges River, the city has been home to rishis, gurus and spiritual masters of India for centuries. It is known as the yoga capital of the world, attracting spiritual seekers and yogis from around the globe and is a totally vegetarian and alcohol-free city.
In this holy town, where ancient sages and saints have meditated in search of higher knowledge, we will embark on a joy-ful journey into our experience of ourselves as divine. Paramahansa Yogananda said: “If you go to places where masters have lived, the vibrations there will quicken your realization. That is the value of pilgrimages to holy places. The masters’ divine vibrations are still there, just as strong as when they were physically present. Those who are in tune will feel that presence.”
This is a journey to awaken our potential to be a 'Frequency Keeper' for our planet and people. Through our awakening to our true selves - that which the gurus call self-realization - we learn how to maintain a higher frequency for longer periods of time, thereby embodying our wise, beautiful, radiant Higher Selves.
Our retreat hotel, divinely located right on the banks of the sacred Ganges, is not luxury - it is simple but comfortable. I chose it because of its amazing location, reasonable prices that enable me to keep the retreat cost low, and the fact that we can book the entire space. I also prefer to share with you a genuine Indian experience in Indian-run accommodation rather than choosing an expensive foreign chain hotel. Our daily schedule will be a mixture of spiritual practise, either in our private yoga room or in nature, on the banks of Mother Ganga. Plus nature walks, relaxation, healing and fun trips to the most interesting and beautiful local temples, waterfalls, ashrams, markets and ceremonies. Look forward to spiritual expansion alongside loads of laughter, fun, adventure and sharing with your Star-Soul Family!
