Overview
6 Nights 7 Days Detox Yoga Retreat in Nepal
This is a calm, simple retreat for stepping back from a busy routine. The week pairs gentle classical Hatha yoga and daily yogic cleansing with a light Ayurvedic diet, sound healing, massage, and plenty of rest.
It is unhurried by design. The point is not effort or intensity, it is a slower pace, simple food, and time to feel rested. It suits all levels, including people new to yoga.
The Detox Yoga Retreat at Bodhidham is a holistic cleansing program designed to remove physical toxins, mental stress, and emotional blockages. The 7-day program is structured around the yogic concept of Shuddhi (purification) and draws on the detoxifying practices of Shatkriyas (cleansing kriyas), pranayama, specific asana sequences for organ stimulation, Ayurvedic dietary principles, and herbal supplementation.

Detox Retreat Details:
The 7 day Detox Yoga Retreat at Bodhidham, in Ghachowk near Pokhara, is a gentle, restful retreat for anyone who wants to slow down and simplify for a week. Rather than an intensive programme, it is built around a calm daily rhythm: gentle classical Hatha yoga, traditional yogic cleansing, a light Ayurvedic diet, meditation, and rest.
The week also includes sound healing, an Ayurvedic massage, a boat trip with a temple visit, and a one-to-one counselling session, so there is variety alongside the quiet. The light, simple diet and unhurried pace are what make the week feel refreshing.
It is suitable for all levels, including complete beginners. It is best understood as a gentle reset and a proper rest, a chance to eat simply and live slowly for a week, rather than a medical detox.
What the week includes:
- Classical Hatha yoga. Gentle daily yoga, paced for rest rather than intensity, suitable for all levels.
- Yogic cleansing. Traditional morning cleansing practices, taught and guided.
- A light Ayurvedic diet. Simple, mostly organic meals and a daily juice, light on the system.
- Sound healing. Restful guided sessions with singing bowls.
- Ayurvedic and holistic treatments. A massage and a holistic therapy session during the week.
- Meditation and counselling. Daily guided meditation, and a one-to-one counselling session.
- A boat trip and temple visit. A calm half-day away from the ashram.

Before you book
Frequently asked
Does this retreat actually detox my body?
+
We would rather be honest about this. "Detox" here means a gentle reset: a light, simple Ayurvedic diet, calm daily yoga, cleansing practices, and proper rest for a week. That genuinely leaves most people feeling lighter and refreshed. It is not a medical detox, and your body already has organs that do that work. Think of it as a week of eating simply and living slowly, which is reason enough to come.
Do I need yoga experience or a certain fitness level?
+
No. This is one of the gentler retreats, suitable for all levels including complete beginners. The daily Hatha yoga is calm and guided, paced for rest rather than effort, so you do not need flexibility, strength, or any prior practice.
What does the food involve, and will I be hungry?
+
The diet is light and vegetarian, prepared the Ayurvedic way, with a daily juice and herbal teas. It is intentionally simpler than usual, which is part of the reset, but it is regular, nourishing food, not a fast or a juice-only cleanse. If you have specific dietary needs or health concerns, tell us before booking. Gluten-free and vegan options are available on request.
What is the yogic cleansing each morning?
+
Yogic cleansing, or shatkarma, is a set of traditional gentle purification practices from the Hatha yoga tradition. They are taught and guided each morning, and the gentler techniques are used here. Nothing is forced on you, and the teachers will explain each practice before you do it.
What does the price include?
+
The retreat includes 6 nights accommodation on the ashram in a shared or private room, all meals and herbal teas, daily yoga and yogic cleansing, guided meditation, two sound healing sessions, an Ayurvedic massage and a holistic therapy treatment, a counselling session, and a boat trip with a temple visit. It does not cover international flights or your Nepal visa.
