The ashram is surrounded by a beautiful landscape; depending on the season, you will find fig trees, blackberries, and grapes.
The neighbors are French and are only three families. You will enjoy the peace of the mountain and the relaxed, pure nature lifestyle of an ashram.
Please no phone during lunch, silent breakfast, yummy food, laughs and jokes to lift up the mood, study and practice, group discipline, and punctuality.
Yogaji always does their best to make you feel at home. You will be here to grow in true yoga and not for having holidays only. The accommodations are comfortable but are still not a hotel.
They will provide you with a mattress, good blankets, bedsheets, and a pillow. The sleeping area and the bathroom are shared. It might be challenging for some students, but it is a great way to practice detachment-aparigraha and improve your contentment capacity-santosha.
You are sharing toilets and a bathroom, and you will have an extra dry toilet and an outside shower to enjoy the view.

Retreat location
This retreat will take place in France.
Food
The food is daily prepared by those who are in the food seva. They change the seva regularly so that everyone has the chance to feed his friend one day. The meals are always vegetarian (which implies no animal) meals, as it is very important to practice compassion with animals by not harming them and to control one's own desire to eat meat especially for a teacher of yoga. Ahimsa-non violence means to accept not to kill a living being so to feed oneself. The food is always fresh and made with love by the students. You will be invited to share a mantra before the lunch so to celebrate this moment.
The following meals are included:
- Breakfast
