A trip to India can be life-changing. It’s wild, exhilarating, opening and most and foremost, transforming. You have the chance to re-align, re-centre and retreat in a space that will show you wonder, appreciation and a true sense of belonging. Mama India welcomes you with open arms if you are ready to welcome her into your heart.
This journey is everything and at the same time nothing you could ever imagine. Your participation requires to let go of all mental constructs, believes and assumptions of how the world “should” be in order to receive the medicine of a pilgrimage: surrender to the unknown and trust in the eternal flow of grace.
We will be travelling to Bodhgaya: the magical place where Buddha got enlightened, to Varanasi: the place of death and rebirth, to Rajasthan: the place where fairytales become real and to Rishikesh: the place where the tradition of Yoga originates.
This is a journey to the roots of Yogic wisdom. You will sit by the holy river Ganga and say your prayers, be part of sacred ceremonies, get blessed by vedic priests. You will see magnificent temples, hike in the Himalayas and eat outstanding Indian food. You will visit old Forts, do fire ceremonies by the river and practice Yoga with my Gurujis. You will deepen your understanding of Yoga as an holistic Art of Living that guides the way to an embodied life.
Mama India will teach you how to live your life as a prayer.
Get ready for a journey that will change your life. This is not a Yoga retreat but a pilgrimage to the heart. It demands openness to dive deep & look beyond. It involves overcoming challenges, and cultivating patience and compassion. A little closer to our natural way of being, one breath at a time.
With so much love and excitement,
Bodhgaya is a religious site and place of pilgrimage associated with the Mahabodhi Temple Complex in Gaya district in the Indian state of Bihar. It is famous as it is the place where Gautama Buddha is said to have attained Enlightenment (Pali: bodhi) under what became known as the Bodhi Tree.
Varanasi, or Benaras, (also known as Kashi) is one of the oldest living cities in the world. It is called the spiritual capital of India and it is a portal. Hindu people journey to Varanasi when they are dying in the hope to find salvation. They believe they can break out of the cycle of death and rebirth. It is said that being cremated in Varanasi will allow one to attain Moksha, or liberation. Varanasi is a deep transforming place and an invitation to embrace the fullness of life.
Rishikesh is known to be the capital of Yoga. Home of the Rishis (Saints). In no other place in the world you will find so many Ashrams (sacred centers of knowledge, wisdom, devotion & service) and opportunities to deepen your holistic Yoga practice. Haridwar is one of the most important pilgrimage places in India and is the centre of deep spirituality and ancient teachings. You will connect with the roots of Yoga by feeling these transformational places, taking barefoot steps on the sacred soil and bathing in the holy river Ganga. We will also visit my teacher Maa Gyaan in her home and enjoy a Satsang by the Ganga. This is an initation into the Yogic path as it is and always has been: A holistic science of life that is gracefully blessed by the art of the divine.
