7 days Breathwork Retreat in Rishikesh

Step into a deeply restorative seven-day experience in Rishikesh, designed to help you slow down, breathe consciously, and reconnect with your inner rhythm. Set at Mind Bliss Yoga Academy, this retreat blends transformative breathwork training with daily meditation and healing practices, all within the peaceful atmosphere of the Himalayas and the sacred banks of the Ganga River.

At the heart of this journey is the ancient science of breath. In yoga, pranayama is the practice of regulating the breath to influence the mind, emotions, and energy. Through gentle, structured guidance, you will explore how conscious breathing can support emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and a greater sense of clarity and calm. This retreat is designed as a homecoming to yourself — a space to pause, exhale, and rediscover the life force known as prana.

The program fee for a triple sharing room is $499 USD / 44,999 INR. Accommodation and food are included.

Throughout the retreat, you will move through a balanced rhythm of morning breathwork and movement, midday workshops, afternoon reflection, and evening meditation or sound healing. The experience is carefully shaped to support both inner release and deep rest. You may also take part in yoga nidra, journaling, silent nature walks, and sharing circles that encourage reflection and integration.

The retreat syllabus includes foundational pranayama techniques such as Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika, Kapalabhati, Ujjayi, and Bhramari, along with conscious connected breathing, mindfulness, and emotional healing through the breath. Each practice is taught with care, making the program accessible to beginners as well as experienced practitioners.

This retreat is open to everyone — beginners, seasoned yogis, wellness seekers, and travelers looking for more than a typical getaway. No prior experience is required, only an open heart and a willingness to breathe deeply.

Mind Bliss Yoga Academy brings together the wisdom of traditional yoga with a compassionate, trauma-sensitive approach. The facilitators are experienced in both yogic pranayama and modern breathwork, creating a safe and supportive environment for personal transformation.

Your stay includes clean and comfortable rooms, three sattvic vegetarian meals daily, herbal teas and detox drinks, and access to gardens and meditation spaces overlooking the mountains. Morning herbal tea, sattvic breakfast, and nourishing meals are part of the daily rhythm, supporting your practice from the inside out.

As the retreat comes to a close, you will leave with practical tools, guided recordings, and breath-based mindfulness techniques to continue your journey at home. Optional online follow-up circles are also available to help you stay connected and supported beyond the retreat.
