About this trip

 During a 10-day retreat in silence, you will directly experience the profound inner transformation that meditation brings.

You can re-discover the way back into the Heart and spontaneously open to Love, Joy, Clarity, and Gratitude.​..

This is the path of the Spiritual Heart – Hridaya. This method is a unique integration of Advaita Vedanta, Classical Yoga and Shaivist Tantra.

In the advanced stages of practice, all paths of authentic spiritual traditions meet harmoniously and merge into the same ineffable Reality.

You will learn a form of Self-Enquiry meditation inspired by the non-dual teachings of the great sage Ramana Maharshi.

A beautiful, profound experience. It was my second time there, and what I really like is the non-dogmatic, open-minded attitude and the usefulness of the teachings in real modern life. The retreat helped me with resetting my dopamine levels, cleansing my body and mind, and releasing a lot of emotions from my childhood. There is very beautiful nature around and a calming garden to spend the food breaks. People are kind, food is delicious. Much recommended.

Avoid this place because the heartlessness and dishonesty displayed by Sasha and Kyle means they are just spiritually corrupt. Ordered this retreat after emailing extensively and calling for assurance that it would be a spiritually safe space for a black person as I had had bad experiences in the past. After reassuring me over the phone, and after paying, they then sent an email saying they don’t “subscribe to woke ideology “ and race doesn’t matter. I informed them that I understood but it meant it wasn’t the right place for me. I asked for a refund on the same day I paid. I was reeling from grief and the impending death of a family member which they knew about and they still decided to steal my savings for a retreat I cancelled and did not attend . I was not able to book anything else to help myself because of their theft.

Life changing. I'm not a very spiritual person and I don't do a lot of yoga so I was a bit hesitant before signing up. But being able to converse with Sasha prior, put my mind at ease. She is very quick to reply and will guide you through what is required before your trip. For myself, I've been reading a lot of self help/meditation books, listening to pod casts, going through therapy but I didn't really feel like I was moving the needle on my journey. Coming to Hridaya really changed everything. I was able to be with my thoughts, slow down my mind, learn from Sasha and Kyle, eat amazing vegan food and be in nature. It was the perfect mix for me to put everything together. I can't say enough good things about this experience. Get over your fears and just sign up and be prepared for a life changing experience.

This was my first retreat ever, nevermind silent retreat, and I have to say it was impressive. Banking with strangers was OK because I didn't feel obligated to communicate. The food was copious and satisfying. The teachings were formated in a way for new students to understand and questions were welcomed. I apreciated to stricked schedule because it didn't allow me to worry about anything. Anyone new to this please keep in mind you will be tired at the end of each day. As far as any constructive criticism I might have, I would say the stairwell to the meditation room is daunting for anyone with bad knees, but the family is always happy to help. Thank you all for your grace and love.

Truly life changing experience. It was an exceptional retreat with Hridaya Family. I was a complete beginner. I signed up for a 10-day silent meditation retreat, even though I have never meditate before. The center is located in a magical forest, away from the city noise, exposed to a beautiful nature. People who work in the kitchen supply with an absolutely delicious food. Sasha and Kyle (two wonderful souls, our teachers) made the journey smooth, interesting and very rich in knowledge. They are authentic, have more than 15 yrs of experience and a lot of passion and devotion to their spiritual practice. I finished the retreat with a calm mind, being open for what life has to bring me and encouraged to deepen my spiritual practice. Since then I’ve been meditating daily, which has brought a lot of balance to my life.

I did a 6 day retreat on Jan 2, 2025 and it was an absolutely amazing experience. All aspects of Hridaya Family deserve 5 stars, the place, the warmth and wisdom of the staff, the food, the care, but more so the coursework and the schedule of the retreat. I came out feeling absolutely connected to my spiritual heart! Thank you! will definitely return for other retreats.
