The yoga shala is the centerpiece of our retreat center. It is where we come together as a community to sing, dance, laugh, cry, play, reflect, and build deep connections with ourselves and others. This is our sacred place, and we invite you to honor your sacred nature in this breathtaking space.

Day 7
Rest and self-study
Suan Sati hosts 6 day 5 5-night yoga and meditation retreats in Chiang Mai at our yoga retreat center from November to February. The retreat features twice-daily yoga and meditation sessions, daily workshops on a diverse and ever-changing range of topics, and plenty of time to relax and unwind. This yoga retreat is focused on bringing you into a deeper awareness of your body, mind, and heart. From this place of deep connection, you may find that your daily actions naturally begin to align with your life’s intention. A yoga retreat at Suan Sati will bring you deeper into your authentic self in an open-hearted, fun way. Here you will be supported by a community of diverse yet like-minded people dedicated to self-discovery.
While on your retreat, you have a special opportunity to do a digital detox. This is a unique chance to move your attention away from the outer world and more towards your inner world. The detox allows you to connect deeper with yourself, the other participants, and the retreat program. While some may have initial resistance to being “disconnected” for a few short days, the overwhelming feedback at the end of the retreat is appreciation for the detox. If you have some urgent need to connect, staff can give you a short hotspot. We understand that some people have family issues that require attention or other urgent business. We just ask that any device usage is done away from other guests so as not to distract them from their digital detox.
Suan Sati’s Winter Retreat is all-inclusive of 3 plant-based meals per day, accommodation, the meditation and yoga program, and round-trip transportation from our designated pickup point in the old city. We appreciate when the price that’s listed is what we actually pay, so we make sure that you there aren’t any surprises when it comes to your bill. Optional things that are not included in the price are things like natural toiletries, special desserts, apparel, or private one-on-one sessions.
