Trip overview
The first silent morning feels long. By the third, you’ll wonder why the rest of your life is so loud.
Soul & Silence is Alaya’s first retreat: a trip where the daily rhythm (practice, meals, silence, rest) is the product itself.
We’re finalising the practice, the teachers who’ll lead it, and the setting. Join the early list and you’ll get the full retreat design, dates, and price before anyone else.

Trip DNA & Lenses
What this trip is really made of.
Every Alaya Retreat is built and checked against the same 4 lenses. Here’s what each one looks like on this trip.
The Practice
The specific modality: the style of yoga, the meditation tradition, the breathwork.
The Guide
Who leads it, and the training or lineage behind them.
The Setting
How the place itself is used for stillness: the specific silence, the specific view.
The Rhythm
The daily structure: wake time, practice blocks, silent hours. The rhythm is the product.
The full Trip DNA (named people, places, and moments for every lens) is published with the final itinerary.
What you’ll bring home
You’ll come home not just rested, but recalibrated.

What does joining the early list mean?
You’ll get the full itinerary, final dates, and price before they’re announced publicly, plus first right to a spot. There’s no payment and no obligation.

Yes. Our Concierge team handles flights, extra nights, and insurance matched to the trip, including altitude and trekking cover for Expeditions.
