3-Day Yoga Retreat Rocklyn Ashram

Immerse yourself in Yoga, Meditation and Nature, with like-minded people in an authentic Yoga Ashram

This 3-day retreat is a rare opportunity to experience an authentic and traditional yogic way of life at the Rocklyn Ashram in Victoria. The Ashram is on the edge of the Wombat State Forest near Daylesford and is distinguished by its tranquil setting and peaceful natural environment. This retreat is an opportunity to immerse oneself in all the main practices of Yoga from Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, Mouna (silence), Karma Yoga and self-reflection.

You will practice yoga twice a day, meditate, practice mindfulness, and relaxation and observe silence for self-reflection and mental poise. You will also have an opportunity to assist in the running of the Ashram with 20 minutes of daily self-service (Karma Yoga). Other traditional practices include Kirtan, Mantra chanting and Havan (fire ceremonies) offering peace for humanity, personal wellbeing and environmental protection.

There will be time to sit in the beautiful gardens or find a spot in the surrounding native forest to meditate or just relax. Browse the Ashram library and discover their sacred Yoga texts, and enjoy healthy vegetarian meals throughout your stay, nourishing your body as you unwind from the busyness of daily life.
