Home to ten of the world’s 14 highest mountains, Nepal offers a magnificent setting for retreat.
The natural beauty with forested hiking trails, rivers and streams, green lush valleys and hillside villages on the lap of the Himalayas offers self-nurture and deep relaxation in mind, body and spirit. The connections with nature and its beauty generate strong life force energy spontaneously. 
The ancient and sacred Kathmandu valley, which boasts seven World Heritage Sites and the birthplace of the Lord Buddha – Lumbini are so alive with spiritual vibration. 
The diverse national park of Chitwan encompasses lowland tropical jungle and grassland and shelters a rich variety of wildlife. It is also home to the local tribal Tharu people who live in their traditional mud houses and live simple and natural life.
Nepalese people are well known for their kindness, friendliness and hospitality. Their ability to stay calm in hard times and worry-free and jolly nature is motivational for all.
