Welcome to VedaYoga Ashram: A Trusted Himalayan Escape
Join Our 5-Day Yoga Retreat at Veda Yog Ashram
Located in the green foothills of the Himalayas, VedaYoga Ashram gives you an experience you cannot find anywhere else. While Rishikesh is famous for its temples and ashrams, the main city streets can sometimes feel too crowded or noisy. To solve this, VedaYoga Ashram is located in a quiet, private area in Tapovan. Our ashram looks out over the holy Ganges River and is surrounded by green forests. This gives you a peaceful and clean environment where you can focus on relaxing, learning, and growing.
We have built this retreat following the highest global standards for safety and comfort. This focus on quality makes VedaYoga Ashram a highly trusted choice. Busy Indian professionals love our quiet spaces, and international guests from the US feel completely safe and well-cared for. We arrange smooth airport pickups, provide expert health advice when you arrive, and manage all your daily activities. You just need to unpack your bags, leave your stress behind, and start enjoying your time in the Himalayas.
Authentic Yoga and Meditation from Real Experts
Join Our 5-Day Yoga Retreat at Veda Yog Ashram
The yoga we teach at VedaYoga Ashram comes straight from ancient Indian traditions, but it is taught in a way that is easy for modern people to understand and do. Over the five days, you will learn a healthy mix of Hatha, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa yoga. These styles help to remove pain from your back and neck, make your body more flexible, and make your muscles stronger. Whether you sit at a computer all day in a big city or work a fast-paced job in the US, our expert teachers will help you fix your posture and breathe better. Mental peace is just as important as physical exercise. Every day, we guide you through deep breathing exercises (Pranayama) and quiet meditation. To help you connect deeply with these practices, every guest receives an authentic Rudraksha mala upon arrival. Because we source these sacred beads directly through our own trusted supply, we guarantee their spiritual quality and authenticity. Using your mala, you will learn ancient Mantra chanting (Japa) to calm your mind. This complete approach ensures you go home not just stronger, but with a very calm and focused mind.
Taking the Peace Home: Your Lifelong Wellness Toolkit
Join Our 5-Day Yoga Retreat at Veda Yog Ashram
The true measure of a successful yoga retreat is not just how you feel while you are here, but how you feel when you return to your normal life. At VedaYoga Ashram, we do not just give you a relaxing holiday; we give you a practical toolkit to handle future stress. During the Yoga Philosophy classes, our master teachers explain how to bring mindfulness into your busy office or home routine.
You will leave with a clear understanding of which specific stretches relieve your back pain and which breathing exercises instantly stop panic or frustration. Furthermore, the authentic Rudraksha mala you receive upon arrival becomes a powerful tool to take home. By continuing to use it for daily Mantra Japa (chanting) just for a few minutes each morning, you can instantly reconnect to the profound peace you felt in the Himalayas, no matter where you are in the world.
Peaceful Excursions: Temples, Caves, and the Ganges

What to Expect During Your Retreat
Join Our 5-Day Yoga Retreat at Veda Yog Ashram
Enjoy one to two expertly guided yoga sessions each day. We begin our mornings with an energizing flow to awaken your body and prepare you for the day ahead. As evening approaches, we transition into a gentle, restorative practice designed to release built-up physical stress and perfectly set you up for a deep, restful night's sleep.
Participate in one to two daily meditation sessions held in the fresh Himalayan air. These outdoor practices help you connect deeply with nature's healing energy. Our expert teachers will guide you through proven techniques—often utilizing authentic Rudraksha malas to anchor your focus—helping you quiet mental chatter and discover true inner peace.
In the morning, we focus heavily on breathing techniques (Pranayama) that you can use at home to stop stress. The afternoon is your time for extra adventure. You can choose to go bungee jumping, try the giant swing, or visit the famous, quiet Beatles Ashram. At night, we sit together and use your authentic Rudraksha mala to practice chanting meditation, helping you find total inner silence.
Experience the profound physical and mental rest of our sound healing sessions. By using the gentle, therapeutic vibrations of traditional instruments and calming tones, this practice scientifically relaxes your brainwaves, clears emotional blockages, and fills your heart with a lasting sense of tranquility.

Food & Accommodation
Best Facilities for Yoga Practitioners in Rishikesh
At Veda Yog Ashram, we follow a holistic yogic lifestyle where proper nourishment is as important as physical practice. Our program serves sattvic, high-nutrition vegetarian food to support clarity of mind, physical vitality, and emotional balance.
A sattvic diet avoids fried, processed, canned, and unhealthy foods. This helps maintain healthy digestion, balanced cholesterol levels, and overall wellbeing. Sattvic food is light, nourishing, and easy to digest, supporting long hours of yoga and meditation practice. Our food includes:
A sattvic diet encourages the avoidance of fried, processed, canned, and heavily refined foods. This conscious way of eating helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels and supports heart health. Because sattvic food is light and easy to digest, it promotes better nutrient absorption, supports stable blood sugar levels, and contributes to overall long-term wellbeing.
At Veda Yog Ashram, our accommodation is thoughtfully designed to support the needs of yoga students and retreat participants. Set in a peaceful environment, the rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, allowing students to rest deeply and recover after daily yoga practice, meditation, and study.
A calm living space plays an essential role during an intensive Yoga Teacher Training Course in Rishikesh or a wellness retreat. Proper rest helps maintain physical energy, mental clarity, and emotional balance throughout the program. Our ashram environment encourages simplicity, discipline, and mindful living, helping students stay focused on their yogic journey. The combination of simple living, sattvic food, and yogic discipline creates a harmonious atmosphere that supports balance of the body and mind. This setting allows students to fully immerse themselves in the authentic yogic lifestyle, making their stay at Veda Yog Ashram both nurturing and transformative.
You avoid fried meals, processed foods, canned foods, and other unhealthy foods when you follow a sattvic diet. This controls cholesterol levels and shields against heart disease. Since sattvic food maintains our stomach content with simple digestion and absorption, diabetes and several malignancies are also warded off.
