7 Day Transformation: Silence, Immersive Breathwork, Meditation, Vedic Astrology & Culinary Bliss- Hudson Valley, NY

I sought out a silent retreat to begin my new year in a centered and calm state. External noise had picked up over the prior year, my daily meditation practice had fallen off, and I felt unlike my usual Self.

Harish is a fantastic host. The way in which he easily explains complex ancient Vedic and Yogic teachings is incredible. I received so much in such a short amount of time, and I use the knowledge he imparted on me in my daily life weeks later.

His authentic Indian cooking is delicious, and I brought home a few spices which he makes to continue making the easy-to-prep and healthy meals for myself.

Shat Kriya & Vasi Yoga are not techniques that is taught in many places. These are ancient closed-door practices, which only a select few seekers spend years finding where they can learn them. To have Harish so beautifully teach these practices is no coincidence. If you are called to attend this retreat, consider yourself blessed to be able to learn these methods of psychophysiological breathwork and meditation. The movement of the prana in your body with daily consistent practice will show you a completely different side of yourself.

Additionally, two of my favorite parts were 1) the use of EEG brain scanners to help me empirically see how deep I was going into meditation and be able to replicate the aspects that worked; and 2) the Vedic Astrology chart and zooming into sidhi moment to help make choices in life.

I am walking away from my retreat with centered clarity and a renewed intention to deepen my meditation practice, as that is the true "work" - not the external noise we mindlessly fill our days with. Thank you so much, Harish!

It was a very insightful weekend. It was my first time to any retreat, and I learned so much. Go with an open mind and leave with a new way of breathing. Don't leave without getting some of Harish's products.

I recently had the privilege of attending the 3-day reset breathwork retreat hosted by Harish, and I can honestly say it’s an experience I will never forget. Words almost fail to describe the impact it had on me—not just physically or mentally, but on a soul level. I went in carrying a lot and came out feeling lighter, clearer, and more deeply connected to myself than I have in a very long time.
The breathwork sessions were unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. They were intense, beautiful, and at times completely unexplainable. Harish guided us with such grounded wisdom and care, creating a safe space where I could truly let go. Each session brought something new to the surface—grief, clarity and joy.

But this retreat was more than just breathwork. Harish also shared his passion for Indian cooking, teaching us to create incredible dishes using his own handcrafted spice blends. The food we cooked and shared felt like nourishment on every level.

This retreat was a reset in the truest sense of the word. It was a pause, a deep breath, a reminder of who I am beneath the noise. If you're going through something, or even if you're not, I couldn’t recommend this experience more. Harish doesn’t just host a retreat—he holds a sacred space for transformation.
Thank you, Harish. I’ll carry this with me always.

The ITY program that Harish has created is a thorough and methodical approach to ancient breathing techniques. With this practice, I’ve learned to pay attention to my breath as I move through my daily life. It helps me stay attuned to my thoughts and feelings that arise as life happens. Harish is a very thoughtful and patient teacher. He has a wealth of knowledge about pranayama, its physiological benefits to the body and how it brings about a positive change in one’s thoughts and outlook. He is more than happy to repeatedly clarify and explain in depth any questions that come his way. He is an excellent guide through my practice daily. ITY helps me connect the dots in my life - from reacting to responding. If you stick with this program, you will most certainly see a change in you and how you move in your life!

I just returned from this amazing weekend retreat. Like many people I was under a lot of stress and looking for clarity, uncertain aspects of my future relationships, career, etc.

I had recently watched the movie “Eat, Pray Love“. if you haven’t seen it, I would recommend it. Julia Roberts is searching for clarity and takes a trip to India, where she learns breathing techniques, meditation, etc.

While I enjoyed the movie, which is based on a true story, a trip to India is just not feasible for me. But thanks to the universe, India came to me! I met Harish through this website. Having read the reviews, looking at his website and retreat offerings, it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for.

I found this to be an amazing experience that provided me with clarity and peace. The website and course online as a guide to continue to practice at home are a resource I will definitely use.

I also opted to complete the astrology chart, which provided valuable insights into my own behavior patterns. This will allow me to reflect and make choices differently based on this information. Harish is a great host, instructor, and cook. I enjoyed the cooking lessons as well.

Accommodations were clean and comfortable. His home is set in a very peaceful setting, allowing for a wonderful space for quiet reflection.
