These retreats are my way of hitting pause, heading into the mountains, and actually catching my breath. It is not about perfecting a pose, but about finding a little bit of quiet for your nervous system. ## Photos and videos - ![Our retreat venue, Sukoon Villa in Almora, is a sanctuary nestled in the mountains.

We handle all the food and scheduling, leaving you with the task of simply getting to the villa in Almora or the mountains in Dharamkot. You will not find military-style timetables here; it is a rhythm of movement and stillness that we adjust based on what the group actually needs that day. Life in a metro city can feel like a constant sprint. These nature retreats are not an escape from reality, but a way to build resilience for when you return. Whether we are staying at a boutique villa in Almora or finding space in Dharamkot, the goal remains the same: regulating the nervous system. ### Why a mountain reset? There is a specific kind of quiet you can only find at altitude. Away from the constant ping of notifications and traffic, your cortisol levels actually drop. We do not pack the days with back-to-back activities. Instead, the schedule is a mix of: * **Movement:** Daily Mysore-style Ashtanga or gentle, restorative Yin Yoga. * **Sound:** Immersive sound healing sessions using singing bowls to shift your brain state. * **Stillness:** Guided forest walks, silent mornings, and long, slow meals using seasonal, local produce. ### What to expect I do not believe in 'perfect' retreats. Some days you will want to join every session; other days you might prefer to read a book on the deck or nap. That is the point. My colleague Riya and I guide these sessions to be inclusive of all levels. If you are a complete beginner to yoga, do not worry—the focus is on grounding and breath, not how well you can touch your toes. ### Practical details Travel to the location (flights, trains, cabs) is on you, but once you arrive, everything else is covered. All organic, vegetarian meals, props for practice, and accommodation in carefully chosen, secluded properties are included. If you have been feeling drained or just stuck in a loop of doing, this is the space to just be. ## About Sonakshi Dhamija Hi, I’m Sonakshi. I started The Shala because I burnt out hard while trying to maintain the perfect wellness image. I am not here to lecture you on the right way to live; I am just here to hold the space for you to rest, breathe, and figure out what your body actually needs right now.
