6-Day Himalayan Stress Relief & Yoga Retreat in Nepal

What makes this retreat different is how thoroughly it surrounds you with remedies for stress. Many retreats offer a morning yoga class and leave it at that. Here, the package includes two massage therapy sessions, two sound healing sessions, one Reiki healing session, and access to steam or sauna—so whether your tension lives in your shoulders, your mind, or your sleep, there's something specific for it. The yoga itself is traditional and rooted, led by Kriti Karki, whose own story is remarkable: she overcame severe childhood asthma through yoga and pranayama under her father's guidance, then spent years in an ashram before formal academic training at Banaras Hindu University. She teaches in a way that blends that deep traditional grounding with clear, modern instruction. Her husband Biren, who manages the retreat and hospitality, is also a sound healing practitioner, and his sessions are a highlight for many guests. The location on Chandragiri Hill is the other standout. At 2,000 meters, the air is noticeably cleaner and cooler than in Kathmandu proper, and the silence at night is profound. The daily schedule balances effort and rest: mornings move through yoga, pranayama, and meditation; afternoons might include a hike or a treatment; evenings wind down with sound healing or quiet time. There's space to simply be—whether that means reading on the terrace, wandering the gardens, or taking in the panoramic views. Meals are all vegetarian, made from vegetables grown in the surrounding area, organic when available, and served in a canteen attached to the open kitchen. It's the kind of place where you truly feel looked after, from the airport pickup to the final drop-off, and where the only thing you need to focus on is letting go.
