9 Day Health and Healing Therapeutic Yoga Retreat in Pushkar
Yoga Home, Pareek Colony, Pushkar, Rajasthan 305022, India
Meditation and Yoga Retreat India
This immersion is a general health management and restoration system based on meditation from the Tantras, yoga as prescribed in Yogasutra, and spiritual healing rooted in Swamiji’s own belief as a direct descendant of Sage Gautam and child of Shiva, and inspired by the teachings of Allan Cardec, founder of Spiritism, and Swami Ramitis, the renowned Spiritist from Brazil. It caters to both, those wanting to be healed from specific health issue(s) and those wanting to learn it as a healing intervention or discipline.

Pushkar Meditation Temple has an ashram-like accommodation known as Yoga Home. It is situated in the quieter part of the city, a place especially energized with Veda mantras and rituals. The Yoga Home has an amazing view of the sacred mountains that surrounds Pushkar from three sides.
It is a three-storey independent house with five en suite bedrooms, two living spaces, two kitchens, a balcony, terrace, and lawn. You will share the roof with the master and your other batch mates in the Yoga Home. The rooms are allotted on twin sharing basis. Toilets are outside and shared.
Ashrams usually represent a return to a simpler way of living, which is very different to a hotel. Generally there is a more communal atmosphere and often an expectation that guests will pitch in with whatever needs doing.
