Highlights of my yoga-trek in Nepal with Dipesh

I have just returned from a 10-day yoga retreat with Dipesh, based in Nepal. I feel revitalised and energised from regular yoga sessions, mountain hikes and cultural sight seeing. I have Dipesh to thank for it all. I particularly liked how Dipesh took my yoga needs and expectations into account with regards to the design of the yoga classes. He is so encouraging and I felt truly supported when trying out more advanced yoga poses as I could trust Dipesh, his knowledge and experience shines through. He is friendly, approachable and makes everything fun. We even continued to perform yoga after it started to rain at the mountain accommodation grounds, to the amusement of others watching on! Nothing is too much trouble and he is always happy to help or answer questions.
A couple of highlights of the trip was performing yoga in the dark on top of a forested hill whilst the sun rose. Another was a silent meditation outdoors on the hills of the Himalayas where the only sound I could hear were birds flying above us. Unforgettable experiences that I will cherish forever.
The singing bowl sound bath session was also a deeply moving experience that I was surprised to have enjoyed so much having not known what to expect beforehand. I felt an overwhelming feeling of peace and serenity all around me and it extended for hours after the session ended.
As Dipesh is Nepalese I was fortunate to discover a different side of Nepal and we visited many non-tourist attractions which usual travellers would not know or hear about. He has a wealth of information having grown up in the country, and the cultural and sight seeing was phenomenal. I was very close to extending my stay in Nepal because I was so positively inspired by all that I saw.
If you are considering a yoga retreat which incorporates yoga, meditation, mountain hiking, culture and spirituality I would highly recommended the Moon Karma Yoga Retreat. Go ahead and book your place for October. You deserve it and I promise you will enjoy it.
