This totally holistic approach to life liberates both body and mind, creating wellness that cannot be found in any other way. This is the spirituality of the Himalayas!

    The yoga and meditation session was great and I found the pranayama most beneficial for myself. Before starting the session we walked around the Stupa and Santoshi explained the history and meaning of it. The reiki healing was lovely at the end of the session. Santoshi is a kind person, I felt comfortable with her and she was great at explaining and answering any questions I had. I wish I had taken a pen and notebook so be sure to take one with you…I added notes to my phone so I could remember everything 😊 Having read the previous review regarding the timing spent on yoga and being disappointed; The simple way to avoid disappointment is to be vocal about what you want. Santoshi is happy to accommodate your needs and does ask regularly, whereas I was happy to go with the set itinerary. Just say what you are wanting to focus on and no one will leave disappointed. This session is just a small step in starting a journey and it’s up to us to carry on, practice and learn more…do not expect Santoshi to turn you into a Yogini Master in 2.5 hours 😊 enjoy it

    The description of the schedule did not match reality. While the tour offered on Viator 2.5 hours of yoga, the yoga teacher had a different arrangement and she stopped somewhere much less than 1.5 hours, mor like at 1.25 hours I found that very disappointing. It is not only about money, also about time. If I had known, this would be such a short class, I would have planned something else for that day. The yoga class itself was ok, but not new for people, who are used to practice yoga. I give 2 points, as the driver was in time and the yoga teacher a nice person.

    The yoga and meditation sessions are amazing and at the end we had a reiki healing session which was te perfect closing for the experience. Totally recommend it if you’re ever in Nepal.

    I had a wonderful time experiencing meditation in such a peaceful environment where I genuinely felt in touch with the teacher. His energy radiates and makes you feel welcomed. It's also in a busy area but doesn't distract your yoga, which is explained move by move. Feel free to take ask questions!
