This seven-day mindfulness retreat in Kathmandu is secular and practical. It starts from the basics and builds gradually towards deeper silence, time in nature and personal integration, with the aim of lasting calm and awareness in everyday life. No previous meditation experience is needed.

Each day combines guided meditation, mindful breathing and gentle yoga with practices you can use at home: body scans, walking meditation and mindful eating. On day four you leave the city for a full day of meditation, silence and reflection in nature. Day five turns to stress and resilience, with simple tools for everyday pressure.

The last days bring longer meditation, nature walks and journaling, and close with an integration circle and a personal mindfulness plan to take home. An English-speaking facilitator leads the week. You stay six nights at a selected wellness property with full-board healthy vegetarian meals, and airport pickup and drop-off are included.

Groups are small (1 to 10 guests), and the retreat runs all year.
