A new era of conscious learning is unfolding with the upcoming launch of Shivastham Retreat Centre in January 2026. Designed as a serene haven for wellness seekers, Shivastham is nestled in the quiet embrace of the Shivalik mountains, surrounded by untouched reserve forest and the calming rhythm of nature. This purpose-built centre aims to redefine immersive yogic study by aligning ancient wisdom with a modern retreat experience.
Shivastham will also serve as the exclusive home of Rishikesh Yogis Yogshala, a globally respected school founded by Uttam Ghosh. Students joining programs such as the 200-hour and advanced training will now experience an upgraded learning environment aligned with true yogic values. To support discoverability and streamline learner journeys, the centre will host signature programs including the highly sought-after Rishikesh 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training, delivered under the guidance of experienced and authentic faculty.
Located just 30 minutes from Rishikesh and 15 minutes from Dehradun Airport, Shivastham offers the perfect operational balance — accessible yet insulated from the distractions of urban noise. With no vehicles, no honking, and zero pollution, the atmosphere naturally supports introspection, mindfulness, and deep practice.
Shivastham blends authentic ashram energy with curated comfort: sattvic meals, meditation sessions, clean architectural spaces, and peaceful accommodation. Students and retreat participants will also access holistic therapies including Ayurvedic treatments, aromatherapy, deep-tissue massage, and reflexology. Complementing this, transformative sound-healing sessions — featuring Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, and crystal bowls — further enhance emotional regulation and mental clarity.
Ideal for meditation, personal development, and structured learning, Shivastham provides a pure, distraction-free environment for growth. As the centre evolves into a flagship destination for yogic education, it aligns closely with best-in-class institutions such as The Yoga Institute Rishikesh, strengthening India’s position as a global leader in spiritual training.
