A week to slow down, reconnect with nature, and return home to yourself.

is a carefully curated journey into presence, designed to replenish your energy, soften the nervous system, and reconnect you with what truly matters.
Six nights immersed in nature, daily yoga and embodied practices, nourishing plant-based meals, and spacious time to simply be.

This retreat is not about doing more — it’s about remembering.
A Journey into Presence is for you if you're craving…
- A reset from the constant “doing” of everyday life.
- Time in nature to remember what it feels like to breathe deeply and move slowly.
- A retreat that blends yoga, meditation, ritual, and embodied practices with plenty of spaciousness.
- Connection with like-hearted people on a similar path of healing, grounding, or rediscovery.
- A week where someone else holds the container so you can simply arrive.
- Whether you’re navigating transition, seeking clarity, longing for inner steadiness, or simply ready to reconnect with yourself, this retreat is a nurturing, soul-centered invitation to come home.
A gentle return to your body, your breath, and the natural world
Draft agenda
Each day blends movement, stillness, and nature.
Mornings begin with guided yoga. Days unfold with hikes, workshops, and quiet integration. Evenings invite ritual, warmth, and connection — sauna, fire, and star-filled skies.
This is not a packed schedule, but a spacious rhythm that allows you to land deeply in your body and breath.

This is not a packed schedule, but a spacious rhythm that allows you to land deeply in your body and breath.
In a world that constantly asks for more, creating space to return to yourself is not a luxury — it’s a necessity.
This retreat is crafted as a heart-centered journey that nourishes the body, steadies the mind, and restores your connection to nature’s rhythm.

- Sarah LAšuma silent retreatThis place, set in Lovcen National Park, is amazing. I could tell that there was a lot of thought and care put into creating it. I joined a silent retreat and it was just perfect. Accommodation is 5star glamping…all the way down to a plush robe and slippers! Food is delicious and the lounge area is comfy and peaceful. I'm ready to return! Highly recommend.
- Kate HAšuma yoga escapesSuch an amazing place! The location is so quiet and surrounded by green, all you can hear is birds. The tents are wonderful and attention has been paid to every detail - I loved sleeping practically outside but still in a comfortable bed. Food was also healthy, local and delicious. My retreat was only for two nights but I would have happily stayed another week. Can't wait to return.
- Ionela Patrascusunrise pymIt was awesome! Everything was truely great from the place, the quiet, the crickets and the birds to the staff very friendly and ready for us all the time. We will came back here every year for sure!
- Tania IA magically beautiful secluded place in the mountains, attentive and very sincere staff who were ready to fulfill any request, delicious, healthy vegetarian food filled our 7-day retreat with peace and happiness. Thank you. I wholeheartedly recommend Mountain Retreat Center Ashuma for people who want to find peace and harmony.
- Maria SWe have an amazing experience in Ashuma right now, September 2023. From the very first day being here is like to be in a fairy-tale: very special place, where natural beauty is connected with lovingly created man made space. Even the smallest details are so well thought, convenient, and ful of soothing positive energy. Tents are lovely to stay, and all other spots (yoga hall, dining area, chill out gathering space etc.) are planned and made with lots of love. Nice to touch, beautiful to see, pleasure to be. And last, but not least is a group of people who make all of this work. Their work is impeccable, they are always here for you in a very genuine, kind and delicate way! Guy, you are truly amazing! Thank you for everything you do.
