7, 14 & 21-Day Immersive Yoga & Meditation Retreats in the Himalayan Foothills
Dharamshala — home to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government-in-exile — carries an unmistakable aura of peace, compassion, and spiritual depth. Nestled in the Dhauladhar range at 1,457 metres, the cool mountain air, pine forests, and snow-capped peaks create a naturally meditative environment.
The confluence of Hindu yoga traditions and Tibetan Buddhist mindfulness practices makes Dharamshala uniquely powerful for inner transformation. A retreat here is not just a holiday — it is a genuine shift in perspective.
All retreats include accommodation, meals, daily yoga & meditation, and curated Himalayan experiences.

Seven days in Dharamshala with Shilpa Yoga School completely reset my mind and body. The morning yoga with mountain views, the monastery visit, the Triund trek — each day was magical. I cried on the last day leaving.
The 14-day retreat was the best decision I've made in years. The Tibetan mindfulness sessions were unlike anything I've experienced. The food, the faculty, the setting — all perfect. Shilpa Yoga School knows how to create transformation.
I came burned out and left completely renewed. Dharamshala's energy is truly healing — and the retreat was structured perfectly: enough yoga, enough silence, enough exploration. The ayurvedic massage was incredible. Will definitely return!
