Mountains + Myths Yoga Retreat to Sri Lanka
October 4 – October 11 AEST
Imagine waking up in the heart of Sri Lanka, high in the mountains and attuning to the rhythm of nature.
Visualise yourself practicing yoga in a mystical land where the ancient stories of gods and goddesses come to life. As you walk towards our beautiful yoga shala, the air is thick with the scent of incense and the soft glow of lanterns illuminates the surroundings, casting ethereal shadows that dance like divine beings.
This retreat is a culinary and cultural adventure too! Squeeze into a tuk-tuk with the wind in your hair passing local villages to visit Buddhist temples where you’ll hear the soft chanting of monks and ancient caves adorned with intricate carvings. Your taste buds will be tantalised with Sri Lankan curries and cuisines lovingly prepared by village locals and shared in the company of new friends on the veranda of overlooking the mountains. This nourishing food is not just a meal; it’s an adventure for your senses, a celebration of the island’s diverse cultural influences and its bountiful natural resources.
