Take a break from the busyness of everyday life and celebrate Thanksgiving in an atmosphere of peace, gratitude, and spiritual renewal. Surrounded by the beauty and tranquility of the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Farm, this retreat offers an opportunity to reconnect with your inner Self and discover the lasting happiness that comes from a peaceful mind.

Through inspiring talks, guided meditation, classical yoga, devotional practices, and time in nature, you will explore practical yogic teachings for cultivating inner calm amidst the challenges of modern life. Learn how to reduce stress, quiet the mind, develop gratitude, and experience the joy that naturally arises from living with greater awareness and balance.

This special holiday retreat features a team of experienced teachers who have dedicated their lives to the spiritual path. Drawing from the timeless wisdom of Yoga and Vedanta, they will share practical tools for finding peace within yourself and extending that peace into your relationships, community, and the world.

The retreat includes:

  • Daily classical Sivananda Yoga classes
  • Guided meditation and breathing practices (pranayama)
  • Inspiring lectures and workshops
  • Satsang with chanting and meditation
  • A traditional Thanksgiving celebration with a delicious vegetarian feast
  • Karma Yoga (selfless service)
  • Time for reflection, walking the beautiful grounds, and connecting with like-minded seekers

Whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner, this retreat offers a welcoming space to rest, recharge, and remember that true happiness is not found in external circumstances, but in the peace that already exists within.

Join us this Thanksgiving to nourish your body, uplift your mind, and open your heart in a joyful spiritual community.
