I returned to Kathmandu Meditation Home for a second time after my first visit in 2023 as felt a strong need to come back! This time I attended a 3-week meditation teacher training course during October (Very pleased to be accredited!)
Sujit and Dinesh are true masters – knowledgeable, relaxed, and deeply skilled. The food, prepared by the wonderful Didi, is wholesome, organic, and locally sourced. Accommodation is clean and lovely – I had the pleasure of an ensuite and amazing views of Kathmandu. The people you meet here are amazing too. But these aren’t the main reasons to come here!
If you want to explore the roots of yoga and meditation, the philosophy classes are incredibly thought-provoking and fascinating. The course is intensive, with early wake-ups, set meal times, and structured classes but in the best way. I arrived 18 days ago as a smoker and have since quit! The setting and location is picturesque. There are 150 different species of birds in the Himalayas and you are visited by them every day. But the true jewels are in the practices themselves, in feeling different in yourself – more grounded, more able to face life and all its challenges, more curious about the world, the universe and what lies beyond. Honestly it’s hard to put it all into words! What you’ll find is what you pick up here will stick with you for good. There’s a reason this school has been so highly rated. ✨
With heartfelt thanks to the teachers, students, groundskeeper, and chef. 🙏🏻❤️
