The aroma of incense in the air, mantras chanted on the streets, ancient temples, the holy river Ganges, and the mighty Himalayas. Rishikesh, the birthplace of yoga, is one of the holiest places among Hindus. Having been a place of pilgrimage for thousands of years, the practices of yoga and meditation remain deeply engraved in the local culture.
Imagine meditating against truly breathtaking scenery, just under the Himalayas, near ancient temples, in a serene setting that’ll inspire you to reach a deeper state of awareness. That’s right, meditation retreats in Rishikesh are as authentic as they come.
The gateway to the Himalayas and one of India’s most popular yoga destinations, Rishikesh attracts travelers from all over the world who wish to deepen their spirituality under the guidance of renowned teachers and masters. Sure, this historic town may owe much of its reputation to yoga, but meditation retreats are just as abundant and popular here.
Rishikesh has a more traditional approach to the ancient practices of meditation and yoga than other destinations in India. There are many meditation centers in Rishikesh that offer programs ranging from short weekend meditation retreats to longer stays, most of them at reasonable prices.
You will learn breathing techniques to calm your mind, mindfulness to notice your thoughts and the art of meditation. After only a few days of practice, you’ll feel like you have come home.
Many retreats are held in ashrams, with only the basic amenities and none of the luxury that’s customary in the West. Staying in an ashram is as authentic as it gets, as it helps you embrace simplicity and focus on your practice. At the same time, you can find accommodation options for all preferences and budgets.
You can expect vegetarian and vegan meals, as most retreats offer a Sattvic diet. Outside the meditation sessions and yoga classes, there are many interesting activities to try in Rishikesh. You can go hiking and trekking, rafting, visiting temples and remote villages, and much more.
