Your Hosts

Govind Das and Jacqueline | The Bhakti Yoga Shala

Bhakti Yoga Shala is a west coast bhakti yoga/spiritual community, known worldwide for its devotional programming. After serving Santa Monica for 11 years in person, BYS became an online-only studio in 2020. This has allowed BYS to better serve the global community. 


Govind Das and Jacqueline aim to spread the practice of Bhakti around the world. They follow the teachings of the great saint Neem Karoli Baba, who celebrated all Gods as one. Anyone and everyone is welcome, and we are happy to serve you on your spiritual journey.

In 1989, Govind Das was introduced to the practice of meditation and the spiritual culture of the east. A few years later, while on a road trip, G listened to a Ram Dass lecture. This cassette tape changed the course of his life. Govind Das has since dedicated his life to studying and sharing the practices of Bhakti yoga.

Rob and Melissa

Rob and Melissa are kirtan singers and yoga teachers devoted to sharing the heart-opening practices of Bhakti yoga and kirtan, call-and-response chanting. Kirtan with Rob and Melissa is a fresh take on an ancient practice, where Sanskrit chants blend with modern, accessible melodies and lush harmonies to create an atmosphere that has been described as “joyful medicine,” “heart-opening bliss” and “love and devotion materialized!”


When Rob and Melissa first met, neither of them sang kirtan nor practiced Bhakti yoga. By the time they married two years later, love and devotion had become the foundation of their partnership. As these seeds of devotion to each other grew, Rob and Melissa’s Bhakti yoga practice blossomed, as well as the desire to share this love with others. Their music, teachings, and storytelling create a space of comfort, discovery, and deep joy.


Rob and Melissa are based in Seattle, WA, but their music keeps them on the move, sharing kirtan as far away as India, Europe, and Central America. When they aren’t on the road, the couple leads regular kirtans in the Pacific Northwest. In addition to sharing their music at yoga studios and festivals, they teach Bhakti yoga workshops, kirtan trainings, provide live music for yoga classes and lead retreats around the world. Find out more at www.robandmelissa.com

Sedona Soul of the Earth Women's Retreat, October 2024 I had the privilege of attending the Sedona Soul of the Earth Women's Retreat in October 2024, not as a guest, but as the main chef's assistant in the kitchen. Despite my role being behind the scenes, the experience was nothing short of transformational and heart-activating. The retreat was in the breathtaking landscapes of Sedona, which provided a serene and spiritual backdrop for container. From the moment I arrived, I was held by the amazing energy brought by both the facilitators and the guests. The atmosphere was charged with positivity, openness, and a genuine desire for connection. Over the course of just four days, I felt a profound bond forming with the 16 incredible women attending the retreat. We held space for one another to be fully ourselves, without judgment or hesitation, fostering deep and meaningful connections that I believe will last a lifetime. Loren, the organizer, did a beautiful job ensuring everyone was comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire time. Her attention to detail and genuine care for each participant was evident in every aspect of the retreat. The Elemental Weavers, who facilitated many of the sessions, were strong and inspiring leaders. They guided us through various activities that were both grounding and elevating, helping us to connect more deeply with ourselves and the natural world around us. Even though my primary role was in the kitchen, assisting in preparing nourishing meals for the group, I felt fully included in the retreat's activities and the sense of community that was cultivated. The shared meals became a time of joy and connection, where stories were exchanged, laughter was abundant, and hearts were opened. The transformational power of this retreat extended beyond the scheduled sessions. The informal moments—sunrise meditations, walks amidst the red rocks, and evenings under the starlit sky—were filled with introspection. Witnessing and being part of such authentic interactions was truly heartwarming. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have been part of the Sedona Soul of the Earth Women's Retreat. It was an unforgettable experience that touched my heart and soul in ways I couldn't have imagined. I walked away not only with new friendships but also with a renewed sense of self and a deeper appreciation for the power of community and shared experiences. I highly recommend this retreat to any woman seeking personal growth, connection, and a transformative journey in a supportive and nurturing environment.
By Hailey B for Sedona Soul of the Earth Women's Retreat on Nov 27, 2024
Wonderful retreat! Loren and her group are amazing. :) I am deeply grateful to all the women who participated in organizing this retreat. They provided a safe, inclusive, and fun space for everyone. I went back home with so much healing and new genuine connections.
By Tenny M for Sedona Soul of the Earth Women's Retreat on Oct 23, 2024
Loren is such an inspiration! I found the course very insightful. She shares great tools in which to work towards hosting your own retreat. Really happy I was introduced to her and will continue to work towards my vision. Thank you Loren <3
By Rupia A for The Lotus Retreats | Transformational Travel & Retreat Leader Training on Jun 30, 2024
I am so grateful for Loren sharing her years of knowledge & experience with us in this wonderful online course. Her honest guidance & inspirational feedback has been so helpful along this journey. From templates, checklists, open-ended Q&A time, prompts for self reflection & gentle deadlines to encourage motivation, this training has you covered! I have now successfully hosted my own content creation retreat for photographers & creatives, since taking this course. & I am still finalizing plans on a future yoga retreat as well. Loren follows through with this course with support, encouragement, & guidance even long after the zoom calls end. This offering has definitely helped me to gain the confidence & knowledge needed to finally take the leap to sharing my own retreats. It was also great to meet other like-minded folks, who were all able to come together, brainstorm, & share ideas with one another.

I would highly recommend this training!! Loren is such a great space and wisdom holder for questions, insights, and anything that may come up around leading, planning, and coordinating a successful retreat. This training is perfect for you if you're wanting to gain deeper insight into what it looks like to host a retreat, how to plan and market a successful retreat, and are also wanting to connect with other like-minded individuals as well. Loren shares tips and what she has learned from her own experience leading retreats all around the world I found very helpful and valuable. Taking this training not only helped me to feel more confident in my abilities to plan, host, and lead retreats but I also got the opportunity to connect with others that are interested in doing similar things. Having this community felt very grounding for me and helped me to take the next step and get out of my comfort zone when it comes to my dream of hosting and leading retreats. Thank you Loren!

First and foremost, apologies for this super overdue review. I just realized that I haven't left a review for Loren Lotus, but periodically I have thought about this magical retreat I went on with Loren in 2018 to Colombia. Loren was very communicative about all the trip details beforehand, and planned very special programs; a small trip to the neighboring village with a local guide, interesting workshops with great guest teachers, etc. although she is an amazing instructor! The retreat venue was magical and was very accommodating about everyone's dietary restrictions. I spent possibly the best week of my life, and I am forever grateful for that experience. Highly recommend it if you are looking for something to nourish your mind, body, and heart. Thank you Loren. I hope you are doing well! Sending love.

I had an amazing experience in Colombia with Lotus Retreats in July 2023. Loren and Rachel are fantastic women who lead with love and light. They show so much care and respect towards each person's experience and offer each guest the opportunity to make their trip as busy or relaxed as they wish it to be. I highly recommend the excursions, as I got to experience more of Colombia and the history of its culture; however, they are optional, which is great on days when a guest would prefer some time spent in reflection. The daily yoga offerings were my favorite part, as they brought different styles of yoga, pranayama techniques, and sound healing into class. And finally, the freshly prepared, locally-sourced meals were INCREDIBLE. My body is still thanking me!
