Yoga & meditation retreat

A retreat enables you to recharge both physically, mentally and spiritually. Through yoga and meditation the senses are sharpened, and after the retreat you will return home with greater clarity and energy. 

The Ananda Mandala retreats hold groups of max. 20 participants. The teaching can therefore include a greater amount of individual advice and guidance. The longer retreats are most often international, and the teaching will then be held in English.

The course fees include teaching, food and accommodation.

The Summer retreat and New Year retreat both last 10 days, the Prana Vidya retreat 14 days and the Kriya Yoga retreat 28 days.

Apart from the intensive practice of yoga and meditation, there is plenty of time for other activities, such as swimming or canoeing on the lake, going to the sauna, going for a walk or just being lazy in the hammock at the waterside. 

We kindly ask you to leave electronic equipment such as mobile, computer, I-pod etc at home. If you do bring your mobile along, then please have it turned off. This will enable you to be fully present in the process of the retreat.

"At Ananda Mandala I find the peace I need to dare to face my inner turmoil. Here is a unique blend of familial warmth and traditional wisdom. There is room for and understanding of my spontaneous outbreaks of happiness and tears as well. Hari Prem and Björn have created something special - a place where many of us feel at home and always long for. Every time I'm at Ananda Mandala, I feel I am closer to myself." (Shanti Grann)
