Come, be in the presence of living spiritual masters and continue your spiritual journey with full awareness of your divine energy within!
The Parmarth School of Yoga offers retreats throughout the year and around major holidays for those who are drawn to rejuvenating and re-energizing their path of Self-discovery, to awaken the divine energy within yourself and let your own inner Light emerge as you discover your inner wisdom!
Our retreats include pranayama, yoga asanas, spiritual question & answer sessions, silent and guided meditations, mantra chanting, karma yoga, and Himalayan walks, and conclude with Ganga havan and aarti at sunset followed by darshan/satsang with Pujya Swamiji and Sadhvi Bhagwatiji.
