Sunrita Yoga
Breathe deeply, then head outdoors
A day at Sunrita Yoga can move from the quiet focus of breath and mat practice to the exhilaration of skiing in Vermont’s Green Mountains. Retreats are hosted at Sterling Forest Lodge, a sustainable mountain lodge described as a place to reconnect with yourself and nature. Yoga and time on the slopes create a lively balance of inward attention and outdoor activity, rather than a retreat built around sitting still all day. Meals bring another sense of place: the seasonal menu draws on local and organic Vermont produce and Ayurvedic ideas, with vegan and vegetarian food. The lodge also lists a yoga studio, sauna, hot tub, free Wi-Fi and parking, along with coffee and tea. Sunrita Yoga’s approach is grounded in yoga, mindful movement and breath, with the retreat experience shaped by its setting and program. Ask the host about upcoming dates and what each retreat includes.
