Summer Solstice Yoga Retreat With Nora Benian

This is a retreat for those ready to pause, turn toward the light, and reconnect — with themselves, with nature, and with community.
— Founder, Viveka Vana Retreat Centre

As the sun reaches its peak and the days stretch long with golden light, join us for a weekend of deep nourishment, movement, and community at Vivekavana.

From Friday arrival through Sunday afternoon, each day is thoughtfully woven together to guide you inward and outward — beginning with guided meditation and breathwork at dawn, flowing into yoga practices ranging from energizing Vinyasa to grounding Yin and Hatha, and easing into restorative evenings that let the day settle.

Saturday unfolds as the heart of the retreat — morning flow and workshops exploring Vagal Toning and Face Yoga give way to free afternoon time to hike, soak in the sauna or hot tub, or receive a Thai Yoga Massage. The evening closes beneath the open sky around the fire circle, one of the most cherished traditions of the solstice season.

Sunday invites a gentle return — a morning session dedicated to releasing what no longer resonates, using cards to scan for what may be out of alignment, before gathering for a closing circle and a final shared lunch.

Throughout the weekend, nourishing meals, a magical sound bath and Yoga Nidra, and the quiet beauty of the land hold the container for genuine rest, reflection, and renewal.
