A 3-day yogic retreat rooted in sādhana, silence, ritual, and simplicity.
Held in a traditional forest ashram near Rishikesh, this retreat invites participants to enter a lived yogic rhythm.
The 3-Day Yoga Sādhana Retreat is designed as a brief but sincere immersion into traditional yogic living.
This retreat is not about learning many techniques or achieving experiences.
It is about entering discipline, following a sacred routine, and allowing the mind to settle through repetition, silence, and simplicity.
Held at Gopal Kuti Bhairant Baba Ashram, Brahmpuri, the retreat unfolds in a quiet forest setting where daily life itself becomes the practice. Yoga, meditation, ritual, and rest are not treated as separate activities — they form one continuous sādhana.
The shorter duration makes this retreat suitable for those who wish to taste ashram life, reconnect with practice, or realign themselves without committing to a longer stay.
The retreat balances movement, stillness, ritual, rest, and reflection.
