Program Calendar

The last 2 years have been a challenge and now as we are learning to live with Covid-19, let us come together to celebrate the joys of living well again.

Using the mindfulness practices of yoga and meditation as a backdrop:

We will engage in step-by-step exercises from my original course guidebook to help you re-think old thought patterns and transform the pandemic experience from a state of contraction into an opportunity for growth, development, and above all, as an invitation to heal yourself so that you can step into your own inner light and joy.

Together we will:
  • Dive into self-development exercises to help you step into an abundance mindset
  • Enjoy private mixed-level yoga and Pilates-based core training classes (with instruction for beginners)
  • Learn about evolutionary nutrition basics
  • Practice meditation, mantra, and mudra techniques
  • Gather around a campfire under the stars with yogicmythology storytelling and guided meditation to the Hindu Goddess Kali
  • Enjoy an optional guided forest-bathing hike
  • Enjoy a tour and tasting at Moka Origins, an onsite fair-trade coffee and craft chocolate café

You will also have free time alone for R&R and optional treatments at the Pure Rejuv Wellness Center.

No prior yoga experience is required, just an open heart and an open mind.

I like to think of this weekend as an invitation to yourself to engage in Optimal Wellness: a practice of mindful choices and intention-setting across all dimensions of life to achieve a joyful state of balance and wellness; to thrive personally and professionally.

Like the beautiful lotus flower, it is time for you to ascend so you too can become a source of light and grace in the world.

Use code EARLYBIRD through April 30th for $20 off the Retreat registration fee.

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.
