wowww what a truly magical sacred experience to explore myself in this framework of this beautiful program alongside teachers who are so dedicated to the practices and the journey. The ashram itself is a sanctuary full of greenery and space to roam so you donβt feel closed in at all. The program is cleverly designed to take you through the progression of silence over the 7 days and you will find deepest states of meditation here that dwarf your previous sensations. The energy is so special. The food is phenomenal all cooked over an open fire and so nourishing. Every bit of the experience is taken care of all you need to do is be present and let the rest happen!! Donβt think about it just book it x thank you Saurabh for your dedication to this program your joy for the silence is visceral and it encourages you to keep exploring your ownPosted on Google![]()

My time at Abhyasa Yogmath was truly special, and Iβm so grateful I had the opportunity to experience this beautiful place. The ashram has such a peaceful atmosphere, and the people are genuinely lovely and welcoming. I enjoyed the yoga classes with Sumit so much, and the meditation classes with Shivani were wonderful. Both made my stay even more meaningful. A special thank you to Saurabh for making everything so easy and smooth from an organisational point of view. The communication, coordination, and help throughout my stay were excellent. Iβm also very grateful to everyone working behind the scenes. There are so many little things that go into making a place feel this welcoming, and they deserve just as much appreciation. The food was another highlight: simple, delicious, and nourishing. I felt really good in my body, and my mind felt calm and at ease. What I loved most was the overall feeling of peace. It was a chance to slow down, practise yoga and meditation, enjoy simple things, and reconnect with myself in a beautiful environment. Sometimes you only realise how special a place was once youβve left it and continued on your journey. I have a feeling that the more I travel through India, the more Iβll appreciate the time I spent here. Thank you to everyone at Abhyasa Yogmath for creating such a lovely place and for making me feel so welcome. Iβm leaving with a very grateful heart and would wholeheartedly recommend this ashram to anyone looking for a peaceful and meaningful experience. πΏβ€οΈPosted on Google![]()

This place is a real haven for those who seek an introspective moment , connection to nature, to spirituality or/and also to all the wonderful people who visit this place. Saurabh Ji and Sumit Ji curate together beautiful meditations and yoga sesssions, all with so much care and grace, the day goes by at the rythm of the ashram, the early mornings, the prayers, the meditations , the meals, the fire ceremony. The place is beautifully located far from all the noise, here you wake up to the sounds of nature every morning and to the smiles of everyone working/living in the ashram. I can't thank them enough for the memorable eleven days... as well as the team caring for the meals which were always tasty, varied and delicious... they were also very careful with my dietary restrictions due to a severe allergy. This is a place you want to come back to , that feels like home and where you meet beautiful souls you want to stay in touch with ποΈ β€οΈPosted on Google![]()

A little piece of peace near Rishikesh. πΏ I arrived at the ashram without knowing how long I would stay, and after just two days, I knew I wanted to stay for the full six-day program. The experience was wonderful, peaceful, and welcoming. The room was comfortable and well-organized, and the yoga teachers were professional, attentive, and adapted the practice to each participantβs individual needs. Iβm so grateful for this experience and already looking forward to coming back! πβ¨Posted on Google![]()
