Our 10-Day Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh is designed to help you rest, heal, and reconnect
The 10 Days Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh at Aatm Yogashala is a beginner-to-intermediate, 10-day/9-night wellness immersion combining Hatha, Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga with pranayama, guided meditation, sound healing and Ayurveda-inspired sessions. It suits corporate professionals needing an extended reset, wellness travellers, and anyone moving beyond a short retreat — no advanced yoga experience is required. New batches are available every month at our Yoga Village campus in Swargashram, with shared and private rooms, 100% sattvic vegetarian meals and free Dehradun (DED) airport pickup included — fees start at USD $310.
The 10 Days Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh at Aatm Yogashala is a 10-day, 9-night immersion designed for corporate professionals, wellness travellers and progressing beginners who need more than a weekend to actually unwind, reset a routine, or move their practice from beginner toward intermediate.
Nine nights is enough time to properly rotate through styles instead of sampling one. Sessions are guided by our resident teachers at the Yoga Village campus in Swargashram, and the schedule moves through:
If the sound healing sessions resonate with you, they're also offered as a standalone Sound Healing Yoga Course. And for anyone who wants to keep building after the retreat, Ayurveda continues through our Ayurveda & Panchakarma Course.
A short weekend rarely outlasts the flight home. Longer, immersive formats do better: a study of a 10-day intensive meditation retreat recorded improvements in both wellbeing and heart rate variability among participants (Krygier et al., cited in Frontiers in Psychology, 2016), which is exactly the kind of extended-stay reset this retreat is built around.
Traveller demand for this longer, more structured format is climbing too:
Rooms are shared or private, each with an attached washroom, and meals follow a 100% sattvic vegetarian diet — full details are on our Food & Stay page. The campus sits on the banks of the Ganga in Swargashram, one of the quieter corners covered in our Rishikesh, India guide, with the Himalayan foothills as a backdrop to your morning practice.
Ten days gives the schedule room for real excursions, not just extra yoga classes:
So you leave with more than a stretched-out yoga routine.
New batches open every month. If ten days is more than you can commit to right now, the same Ganga-side campus and teaching team also run a 3 Day Yoga & Meditation Retreat, a 5 Day Yoga & Meditation Retreat and a 7 Day Yoga & Meditation Retreat — read what past guests made of their stay on our Student Reviews page before choosing.
The 10-Day Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh at Aatm Yogashala is priced at $310 USD (Shared Room) and $360 USD (Private Room) with 100% flexible start dates — arrive on any day of your choice throughout 2026–2027.

Himalaya is a famous range of mountains from Vedic times, and many sages mention it in their story. This range is not only confined to India but to neighbouring countries like Nepal, China, Bhutan, and Pakistan. Rishikesh is one of the most beautiful cities in India, known for Yoga and meditation, which is located at the gateway of the Himalaya.
Here you will experience that Yoga has been passed by the sages to their present generation. People living here are just passing their beautiful Vedic education to the next generation and preserving it with respect. You will find mystic caves, beautiful waterfalls, the Ganga Aarti, and some unique temples. So it will not be a limited,d hectic series of Yoga.
We want to give you a grateful morning with a spiritual evening, and we make sure that you will learn & enjoy. We make sure that you have a healthy schedule that you can take home.

Food not only determines our physical health, but also our thinking and feelings. Yoga does not divide food into protein, carbohydrate, and fats; it divides it into the influence on the body and the mind into three types: sattva, rajas, and tamas. Sattvic food is that which makes you feel enthusiastic and energetic.
Aatm Yogashala offers accommodations which are a sparkling combination of Indian traditions and modern amenities to make the student feel a part of home out of his/her site and a good place to work as a learning environment in yoga. Both the yoga halls at Aatm are clean, neat, and have ample space in the lap of nature. We are persistent when it comes to providing our students with the most adequate environment to learn yoga, hence peaceful and quiet surroundings that are conducive to a healthy mind and body.

Ten days only works if every day earns its place. Here's what students actually get:
A Full Practice, Not a Sample
Hatha, Ashtanga and Vinyasa all feature across the ten days, so you leave with a rounded practice, not one style.
Healing Beyond the Mat
Sound healing, Ayurvedic therapy and full-body massage sessions are built into the schedule, not sold as add-ons.
Real Excursions, Not Just Yoga
Opening hawan, Ganga Aarti, Kunjapuri sunrise, the Vashishtha meditation caves and a classical music evening are all part of the itinerary.
Authentic Ganga-Side Campus
Practice and stay steps from the sacred river Ganga in Swargashram, Rishikesh's quietest yoga neighbourhood.
Reserve your 10 Days Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh and give yourself the reset a weekend never quite delivers.
100% Sattvic, Diet-Friendly Meals
Three vegetarian meals a day, with raw, vegan and gluten-free options available on request.
Free Airport Pickup
Complimentary taxi transfer from Dehradun (DED) Airport is included in every booking.
Shared or Private Rooms
Choose the stay that fits your budget, from USD $310 shared to USD $360 private, both with an attached washroom.
A Natural Next Step
Once the retreat ends, carry the practice forward into a 100 Hour Yoga Teacher Training with the same teaching team.
Scientific evidence confirms that an extended retreat provides physiological and psychological benefits far exceeding a short weekend break.
In a clinical study examining a 10-day intensive meditation retreat, researchers recorded significant improvements in psychological wellbeing, mindfulness, and heart rate variability (HRV) among participants (Krygier et al., cited in Frontiers in Psychology, 2016).
Furthermore, the global wellness-tourism market was valued at US $814.6 billion in 2022 and is projected to expand at 12.42% annually through 2030 (PMC, 2024), driven by increasing demand for immersive multi-day retreats that deliver lasting stress reduction and nervous system regulation.
In addition, comprehensive clinical reviews by the U.S. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) demonstrate that sustained yoga and meditation practice measurably reduces chronic stress, lowers blood pressure, enhances sleep quality, and strengthens emotional resilience.
