What's this trip about?

    Balancing a simultaneous inner and outer journey, our Northern India Retreat will explore the theme of presence as we move from the chaos and hidden mysticism of Delhi, to the shores of Mother Ganga in Rishikesh, to the higher Himalayas of the Dalai Llama’s home in Dharamsala. We will learn to experience greater awareness with our daily practice of sadhana (spiritual practice) that includes Yoga asana, pranayama, mantra, and silence. With support from each other and the powerful spiritual energies of the Himalayas, we will live our moving meditation exploring sacred sites, busy marketplaces, outdoor adventures, satsang with spiritual masters, and the simple craziness of life in India. This retreat will give you tools to help you to integrate a more meditative awareness into your everyday life. Life with presence is the key to expand beyond fears and doubts, to embody your purpose, and to live from your empowered creative self, regardless of outside influences. You can relax deeply and safely into your journey as our India experienced guides and teachers organize all the daily travel details, take you to the cleanest, most delicious restaurants, unveil sacred powerful sites, bring you to their favorite teachers, and help you navigate in a sometimes chaotic country.

View Profile

Flowing Spirit Journeys was born out of the inspiration to use travel as a means of personal evolution, empowerment and expansion.  The intention is to create an environment of spiritual travel where conscious people come together to undergo a deeper journey into themselves.  It is a result of a marriage of travel, spirituality, and outdoor adventure. It is a bridge that offers an opportunity to cross into the lessons and unique richness that each culture and country has to offer.

We will share with you our favorite places, teachers, and locations that have inspired great personal change within us, and others. Flowing Spirit Journeys gives an experience of God without all of the religion. It is a moving yoga retreat. It is an exciting adventure. It is a transformational journey. It is a new frontier of travel.  It is a sharing of the fruits of years of wandering and seeking with you!

We are built from world journeyers, yoga teachers, healers, outdoor adventure guides, and local explorers dedicated to sharing their passions of spirituality and travel. We hope that you will join us on this adventure of love, consciousness, and opening to other cultures and ways of life.  We are all connected in this life and have been for all the lives before and those yet to come.  Make the most of your time here and be sure to leave this world just a little better than you found it.

Meditation in Motion

Flowing Spirit Journeys is travel that you have never before encountered. It's leaving the realm of "tour group" far behind as we evolve into a new genre of group journeys that utilize travel as a means of personal and spiritual development.

Journeys with us are fun, inspiring, empowering, insightful, adventurous, transformational, expansive and enlightening. Flowing Spirit Journeys are designed to be a simultaneous inner and outer journey, a meditation in movement. We will not only travel, play and explore unique aspects and locations of each country that we visit, but we will also maintain a daily yoga/meditation practice, push our limits in outdoor adventure, have group sessions, take time to set intentions, have insight discussions, create ceremonies, experience the sacredness of the locations we visit, connect to nature, AND share a beautifully delicious experience with a group of conscious beings.
