Resting on 120 acres of woodland where the mountains touch the waters of Kootenay Lake, Yasodhara Ashram is a vibrant spiritual community. People come here from all over the world to learn about yogic practices year round. Swami Radha founded the Ashram in 1963 and it continues to grow and thrive.

Coming to the Ashram as a retreat guest is a peaceful and flexible way to experience life in this vibrant spiritual community. A retreat at the ashram provides the perfect setting to experience yoga as more than just the physical practice. Reinvigorate and go deeper with your own yoga practice or experience an authentic introduction to these ancient teachings. Your retreat experience is yours to create. We are open to retreat guests year-round and the length of your stay is up to you.

Mantra, Meditation & Silence Retreat - July 7-11, 2008

A mantra is a combination of sacred syllables that forms a nucleus of spiritual energy. The root man in the word mantra means in Sanskrit “to think”; tra comes from trai, meaning “to protect or free from the bondage of samsara, or the phenomenal world.” Therefore mantra means “the thought that liberates and protects."

- Swami Radha, Mantra: Words of Power


Mantra is an ancient, powerful tool that stills the mind, bringing yourself into touch with your true nature. Learn to focus your mind to develop peace in your life. Explore the power of sound and silence, through chanting and meditation. Experience your own voice as a healing influence nurturing inner growth. This retreat offers a gentle introduction to these spiritual tools, as well as an opportunity to revitalize an established practice.

"Why Choose Abundant Life?"

It's no surprise that there are many cleansing centers throughout the U.S. and Canada. Many of them are quite good. So why would you want to come to The Abundant Life Wellness Centre here in Lavoy, Alberta, Canada?

Here are a few reasons why:

1. Location. If you live in or near Alberta, then participating in one of our cleansing retreats is an obvious choice. Lavoy is located just one hour east of Edmonton.

2. Philosophy. Our entire focus while you stay with us to deal with the CAUSE of disease... and not the symptoms. As Thoreau said, "There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root." We seek to strike the root.

3. Small groups. Many cleansing centers host 30 or more people during a single retreat. We limit each retreat to just 14 participants. If anybody requests a private room, there will be even fewer. This means you get more one-on-one attention. Plus, you get more solitude and rest for your mind.

Testimonial

"I feel great; I can work and play like I whant to, like I used to. My life has changed; I wake up and feel awesome. Thank you for helping me."
