To realize the connection between the microcosm within ourselves and the macrocosm of the universe, ultimately leads us to optimal health and happiness.

yoganga.org - YogAnga Retreat Santosh Puri Ashram - at the dhuni - ashram life - traditional yoga lifestyle

This is no holiday camp type guest house. The ashram is one part education, one part transformation and one part home.

Santosh means contentment and after an initial inner struggle to release whatever may be necessary for your inner purification, that is exactly what the ashram offers.

The day begins pre-dawn and yoga here is a 24-hour experience, not just a couple of daily asana sessions. So be prepared to work hard for the good of the community. Come here to work on yourself, bringing awareness to everything you do, from they way you get out of bed in the morning to how you interact (or not) with other visitors.
