Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh
A Journey to Inner Peace and Spiritual Awakening
Yoga Retreats in Rishikesh, India is an ancient philosophical thought that increases your physical, mental as well as spiritual well-being. It combines stylized body poses or Asanas with sophisticated breathing and meditation techniques. The term Yoga is itself derived from a Sanskrit word that means ‘union’ or joins together. The ultimate aim of yoga & meditation is to unite your body and mind with your soul. We mistakenly think that we are just our body and mind, and totally ignore our soul. Yoga breaks this long-held myth and helps you unite with your soul.
