What guests said
“It's my third day and I am still looking at the pictures from the past week. I am missing myself the most.”
“I came not expecting much, except maybe a space to breath and just be. I came back missing all of it, missing the big table, all of you while eating dinner by myself tonight. My jacket still smells of the bonfire, the smoke, the sunset, a little bit of Jana.”
“We may have come together as strangers, but we're leaving with a little piece of each other.”
Make room for your people
You lead yoga, breathwork, writing, art or wellness retreats. We have the place. A hand-built mountain property in Jana with 16 beds across two dorms and three private rooms, a glass-walled yoga hall, a wood-fired sauna, a cold plunge, a long table with plant-based home cooking, and a bonfire under the deodars. Tell us about your retreat and we'll get back to you to plan it together.
