5 Day Yoga and Meditation Retreat on Don Daeng Island, Laos

This 5-day retreat at La Folie Lodge is a sanctuary for the soul, situated on the tranquil Don Daeng Island in the Mekong River. The lodge is a 4-star eco-luxury resort, offering a unique combination of comfort, authenticity, and sustainability. The retreat is designed to provide an immersive experience that harmonizes body, mind, and spirit, drawing inspiration from the sacred land and the nearby Vat Phu temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Southeast Asia's most significant Shiva temples. Participants will practice yoga and meditation either on the beach at sunset or in a dedicated shala nestled in the gardens, surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. The daily program includes morning meditation and yoga, followed by a healthy breakfast, then a day of activities such as visiting Vat Phu, exploring local villages, cooking classes, or relaxing by the pool. Evenings are reserved for restorative yoga, yoga philosophy, and other cultural experiences.
