Introductory Open Retreat

An open stay at Senda Loto — come when it suits you and join the daily rhythm of meditation, yoga and pranayama, with nature and boutique-hotel comfort in between. A gentle first step for anyone new to the practice, and an easy stay for anyone who simply wants to rest. Minimum three nights.

The Retreat

Your First Step Into Practice

The Introductory Open Retreat is an open stay — you choose your days, arrive whenever it suits you, and join the daily practice for as long as you're here. It's a first, unhurried way to get in touch with meditation and yoga for anyone who's never had the time, or the invitation, to actually sit down and try — and just as welcome to anyone who already practises and wants a light, guided stay: two daily sessions, nature and rest, with no packed program around it. A minimum of three nights, with no fixed weekly schedule to plan around.

Each day holds two hours of meditation, yoga and pranayama in the morning, and two hours of Yin Yoga and meditation in the evening. The rest of the day is free — yours to rest, wander the grounds, or simply do nothing at all. No previous experience is required, and no previous experience is assumed.

You'll practise in a warm, temple-like space surrounded by forest, while staying in the comfort of a boutique hotel — with rooms, comfortable beds, and wholesome meals thoughtfully prepared for you.
