The itinerary brings us to discover Kushadevi, a developing village just outside the Kathmandu valley in the Kabhrepalanchok District of Central Nepal. Kushadevi’s rural settings are perfect for spiritual practices as we are immersed in a peaceful environment far from the chaos of Kathmandu. We will practice yoga techniques, learn about chakras and enjoy chanting mantras, while also witnessing sunrise over the distant Himalayas, discover heritage sites and visit local worship shrines.

The itinerary brings us to discover Kushadevi, a developing village just outside the Kathmandu valley in the Kabhrepalanchok District of Central Nepal. Kushadevi’s rural settings are perfect for spiritual practices as we are immersed in a peaceful environment far from the chaos of Kathmandu. We will practice yoga techniques, learn about chakras and enjoy chanting mantras, while also witnessing sunrise over the distant Himalayas, discover heritage sites and visit local worship shrines.
The days begin early with the Bramahuta, a morning routine preparing body and mind for practice. The morning yoga session will begin and lead us to breakfast, usually served around 8:00. After breakfast, the program continues with theoretical classes.
Have some time off in the morning, to meditate about the new concepts, or just enjoy some sunshine in the terrace with a coffee and a good book. The second yoga practice of the day takes place after lunch.
When the practice is over, it is time to discover Kushadevi. Visit the picturesque dham, and the free flowing river, or the cultural heritage of Panauti which is under evaluation to be declared UNESCO world heritage site. Dinner will be served around 17:30-18:00, followed by mantra chanting which will prepare our minds and bodies for sleep.
The highlight of the trip is the sunrise from the Hillside, a truly humbling experience. The distant Himalayas appear dark against the sky, which is beginning to be full with the colours of sunrise.
