The retreat is private, which means the shape of the week is agreed with the centre rather than set by a published timetable. Yoga and meditation sit at the core, and the centre's own description of the experience centres on practice, healthful food and time in a small community. A past guest, Marie from North Carolina, wrote that the retreat combined meditation and yoga with "healthful, nourishing foods" and the company of a welcoming community, and that she found both solitude and company in the same stay.

Bodywork and spa treatments are offered on site: massage therapy, Reiki sessions and facials, with spa packages available. The centre also has wellness coaches who run one-to-one sessions and can build a personal wellness retreat around what you want to work on. These are arranged separately from the yoga itself.

The land is a large part of the stay. Anahata covers 47 acres of what the centre calls pristine wilderness, including a riverfront with access to the Little River, a tributary of the Missouri River. Guests are welcome to walk the property. The centre is in Floyd County, in the rural community of Floyd, Virginia.

Anahata is run by a small team. The founder and owner, Luke, died in December 2025, and the centre has been quieter since; it continues to host regular retreats and community events at the Celebration Center, its main building. Ashera is the current owner. The centre also invites people who want to help with upkeep of the land and buildings to get in touch, whether for a short visit or a longer stay.

Accommodation is booked separately. The centre rents studio apartments through Airbnb, and guests staying in them are welcome to explore the grounds. Details of the studio apartments — size, facilities, nightly rates — are not given on this page, so ask the centre directly when you enquire.
