Program Calendar

Let us welcome in 2022 with intention and great celebration!

This retreat is a complete immersion into a sacred journey of self love. New Year resolutions are powerful, but often do not carry the momentum to last throughout the year: this weekend will be to create a sustaining path forward through all of 2022. Discover the root of the heart’s desires with the opportunity to bring your visions to life.

This unique retreat is focused on cultivating a foundation of a deep loving understanding of the self through the practices of:

  • Cacao ceremony from Moka Origins
  • Yoga Asana Movement
  • Guided Meditation
  • Future Self Visualization
  • Yoga Nidra
  • EFT Tapping
  • Guided Journaling
  • Releasing Limiting Beliefs
  • Intention Setting Ceremony for 2022

Celebrate the new year by celebrating YOU. There is great emphasis on you because you are worthy. Each of us is born with gifts, and only through taking time to learn what your gifts are can they manifest into bright creation.

This retreat will support those who are seeking a total transformation: Mind, Body, Spirit. As we learn the skills of embodying self love, our whole life can begin to change in our favor. This retreat will support a lasting effect of inspiration.

Each participant will receive a luxury self love package. Loving yourself is the greatest gift that we can give to others.

If you celebrate your differentness, the world will too. It believes exactly what you tell it—through the words you use to describe yourself, the actions you take to care for yourself, and the choices you make to express yourself. Tell the world you are a one-of-a-kind creation who came here to experience wonder and spread joy. Expect to be accommodated.

Retreat Center Highlights

Sacred Space
The Sri Vidya Shrine is the spiritual heart of the Himalayan Institute. This sanctuary offers an ideal setting for silent meditation and group spiritual practice, a cornerstone of the Himalayan Tradition for thousands of years. Open to seekers of all backgrounds and traditions, the Shrine provides a serene, sacred space for meditation, quiet reflection, prayer, and contemplation.
Nourishing Meals
Our nutritionally balanced vegetarian meals are thoughtfully prepared to nourish body, mind, and spirit. Each of our three daily meals is designed to be easily digestible and to support a meditative lifestyle. Sharing meals here naturally fosters connection, offering both deep nourishment and a sense of community.
Loving Community
The Himalayan Institute welcomes people from all walks of life. With a blend of short-term guests, long-term visitors, and a vibrant residential community, the atmosphere here is warm, inviting, and rooted in kindness, generosity, and service. It’s a place where friendships form naturally, often becoming the kind of connections that feel like family, and last a lifetime.
Rest in Nature
Nestled in the rolling hills of the Poconos, the Himalayan Institute’s 400-acre campus offers breathtaking views, scenic hiking trails, and quiet spaces for reflection and contemplation. Walking is a favorite activity, whether along our groomed trails or meandering paved roads, inviting both movement and mindful presence in nature.
Conscious Simplicity
At the Himalayan Institute, we embrace simplicity in all aspects of life, from our surroundings to our approach to yoga. By minimizing distractions, we create space to strengthen the inner self and quiet the mind. Guided by authenticity and grounded in philosophy rather than frills, we support a path of meaningful personal growth.
Treat Yourself
Our Himalayan Café serves the Institute’s signature chai, coffee, and homemade cookies and treats on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The 24/7 Tea Lounge offers a variety of herbal teas for anytime enjoyment. On campus, the MOKA Origins Factory is open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., offering handcrafted, ethically sourced chocolate and coffee, with free tours and tastings on Saturdays.
