Mandala Weaving Workshop

This retreat program brings together the grounding benefits of daily yoga and meditation with hands-on lessons in mandala making. Weaving a mandala is a form of active meditation and art therapy, and this retreat offers a lifelong skill you can share with others.

Each day begins with morning meditation and a morning yoga practice. After breakfast, you will join your mandala making workshop, followed by a break at 1:00 pm for snacks. Mandala weaving continues until 3:30 pm, when you will pause for sound healing. Later, you will take part in an evening yoga class, yoga nidra, and dinner, followed by bhakti yoga.

If you are new to yoga, this is a chance to experience its benefits and learn the fundamentals of this ancient practice while relaxing in a tranquil setting. Over seven days, beginners will gain a solid introduction to a traditional yoga practice they can later bring into daily life. More experienced practitioners will benefit from fresh and innovative yoga sequences, while also strengthening and deepening their practice through a regular rhythm of yoga and meditation sessions in the peaceful atmosphere of our retreat center.

Mandala making is a beautiful way to awaken creativity and connect more deeply within. The process is calming, meditative, and deeply personal. Throughout the seven days of your retreat, you will receive daily individual attention and guidance as you create your own mandalas, a skill that will remain with you forever.

We begin with a simple 4- to 6-sided mandala, then move on to an 8-sided design, and finally progress to a more complex 12-sided mandala. Using colorful yarn woven onto a solid framework, you will explore different techniques and tips along the way. This process is healing in itself, helping to quiet the mind, settle the thoughts, and channel creative energy into something beautiful. In the end, you will enjoy the joy and satisfaction of seeing your completed mandala creations.

This retreat program runs throughout the year, but advance booking is required. You should arrive at our center after 3:00 pm on the day before your program begins. The following 7 days will be your retreat, and departure is on the morning after your final day. We recommend confirming your reservation in advance, as spaces are limited.
