This retreat is set in a beautiful and unique location that works in harmony with nature. In Kanha National Park you will experience five nights in a luxury, tented, jungle eco-camp overlooking a water oasis amidst a verdant foliage of trees teeming with bird life. Maharaja inspired, spacious, luxurious, air-conditioned tents have been created with individual verandahs to while away the hours soaking in the sights and sounds of life around the water oasis. The tiger reserve harbours a mosaic of vegetation types including meadows and woodlands in the valleys, extensive grasslands on the plateaus, dense forests in the hilly tracts, and numerous perennial streams and ponds in the valley that supports swamp vegetation. The reserve is best known for conserving three endangered species, the tiger, hard ground barasingha, and wild dog and is also the habitat for many other mammals, hundreds of bird species and reptiles.

ABOUT HEENA

I am a trauma-informed yoga, meditation and mindset coach, and international retreat leader focusing on helping people experiencing stress, anxiety, fatigue, back pain, and sleep issues.

Yoga has transformed my life, and given me strength through the most challenging moments, and my mission is to share the most powerful tools I’ve learnt on my wellness journey over the last 20 years.

Along with training in Hatha Yoga with Indian gurus, I have completed specialised training in therapeutic techniques in Yoga for Anxiety, and therapeutic techniques in Yoga for PTSD, Yin Yoga, Meditation, Mindset Coaching, Sound Energy Therapy & Vibroacoustic massage with Himalayan singing bowls, Nada Yoga, and Children and Teen Yoga. I have also completed Continued Professional Development in Vinyasa Yoga, Pranayama, and Traditional Yoga Physiology, and I am enrolled in long term studies in Vedanta.

My approach is gentle and compassionate, and nothing brings me more joy than guiding people from wherever they are, into a state of deep calm and rest. I believe that yoga can benefit anyone regardless of age, ethnicity, gender, flexibility, shape, or mobility.

With deep gratitude to the gurus and seekers from ancient times for preserving these sacred teachings, and to all those I have learnt from and worked with.

“Yesterday was phenomenal Heena. The workshop was transformational. I felt relaxed, well and at one with myself. I felt amazing mentally and physically - balanced in my mind and body. I slept very very well, it was superb.” - Maureen L

”Thank you Heena yet again for an amazing yoga session this morning. You left me feeling absolutely fantastic, full of energy and in the right mindset! I love working with you, you are an amazing teacher!” - Jina P

“Heena is an amazing yoga teacher. Her classes are warm and friendly and based around ability and the space she creates is tranquil and authentic, which is very different and not something I have experienced in other yoga classes. I cannot recommend Heena enough.” - Adele H

“I always look forward to yoga and meditation sessions with Heena. She creates a warm and inviting space and I always get the attention I need to get the most out of it. I have practiced yoga for years, but this is the most consistent I have been because I genuinely feel the benefits of my time with Heena.” - Frances H

“I want to thank you for your wonderful yoga classes and sound journeys. I have started to experience a blissful feeling of being present and aware, that is truly magical and unforgettable.” - Hema H

ABOUT LISA

I have been practicing yoga for more than 25 years. I am based in the US, and currently live with my husband, Dylan and our three rescue animals (a dog and two cats) in Falmouth, MA.

I first got serious about my practice after a series of terrible panic attacks. Yoga and meditation were two of the key tools that saved my life and helped restore my physical and mental health at that time.
Now part of my purpose is to guide others with what I’ve learned, to navigate and transform the difficulties they face, into opportunities to live a more vibrant, healthy and meaningful life.

I am a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance and a Qualified Yoga Guide with Yoga Unify. I have completed Teacher Trainings in Classical Ashtanga Yoga and Kundalini Yoga.

I also completed a 200 Hour Yoga Philosophy Certificate Program through Embodied Philosophy and many other trainings and courses. I am committed to sharing the practices I have learned in a way that is well suited to modern living, but remains grounded in knowledge, appreciation, and respect for the traditions of yoga and its origins.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about her teaching, and Lisa herself. Lisa’s approach encourages students to practice in a way that is challenging yet gentle. On a personal note, Lisa’s teaching of asanas and breathing techniques have greatly improved my overall well-being. A year ago, I could never have imagined that I could perform half of the poses I can do now or use a breathing technique that can help quell anxiety. Lisa has helped me find the best version if myself, both physically and mentally. I know I’ll never have any instructor as engaging and encouraging as Lisa.”
– Patty K.

“Lisa has been such a bright light in my ultra- busy schedule. Her program is both meaningful and impactful. She is knowledgeable and gifted in her special areas of yoga and meditation. I especially appreciate how accommodating she has been as I work full time and help an ageing parent. Even on days or nights that I don’t feel like I have time to participate, I ALWAYS feel better afterward and am glad for the connection. I strongly endorse Lisa and her program-we all need more of what Lisa offers in today’s world.” – Lee B.
