7 Day Wellness Yoga Retreat with Reiki & Ancestral Sounds in Chiang Mai

Set in the rural Saraphi district, The Warriors House is a purpose-built retreat space tucked into a tiny Thai village where life begins at sunrise. The property is surrounded by green fields and silence, with nights so dark you can see the stars. This seven-day program is designed to take you deep into the practice of yoga, blending asana, pranayama, and meditation with the restorative powers of Reiki and sound baths.

Each day follows a similar but varied schedule, with two main practice blocks. Mornings focus on energy work: Jala Neti (nasal cleansing), pranayama, meditation, and a dynamic yoga flow. Afternoons shift to more restorative forms: yin yoga, yoga nidra, and sound baths where the vibration of gongs and other ancestral instruments wash over you as you lie still. The intention is to move energy, release tension, and create space for inner clarity.

The small group format—capped at four participants—means your host, Kru Pao, can tailor each session to your individual level and needs. She is a born-and-raised Thai woman (raised in Italy) who has studied a wide range of yoga styles, including Hatha, Vinyasa, Rocket, Iyengar, Hot Yoga, Ashtanga, and Anusaranga, a fusion of Anusara and Ashtanga. Beyond asana, she is a trained sound therapist with gongs and has studied Reiki, traditional Thai massage, and yoga calligraphy.

The retreat also incorporates philosophical discussions and 'Karma talks' about how actions shape your life. Afternoons are free for exploring the village, getting a Thai massage, or simply lounging by the pool. On the last evening, there's a bonfire by the lake where you cook, grill, and celebrate the end of the retreat together.
