Questions you may have
Who is this retreat for?
Anyone navigating a meaningful life transition – retirement, career change, loss, health shifts, or a spiritual awakening. No prior meditation or yoga experience is needed. Solo travelers are warmly welcomed; most participants come on their own.
How fit do I need to be?
Moderate mobility is enough. Walks are gentle and optional, at Himalayan foothill altitude (around 1,800m / 6,000ft). We adapt the pace to the group, and rest is built into every day.
How do I get to Almora?
Fly into Delhi, then either a short flight to Pantnagar (~3.5 hr drive to Almora) or the overnight Ranikhet Express train to Kathgodam (~2.5 hr drive). We arrange a driver to meet you – full travel guidance is shared once you’re enrolled.
What about meals and dietary needs?
All meals are vegetarian, fresh, and locally sourced. We accommodate allergies and dietary preferences – just let us know on your application.
What’s the investment, and how do I hold my place?
Pricing is shared during your application consultation and includes everything listed above except international flights. A refundable deposit reserves your place, and flexible payment plans are available. We keep the group intentionally small.
