Learn At Vikasa Yoga Retreat

The Vikasa lifestyle, as taught in the Recharge program, teaches you how to take better care of your emotional and mental wellbeing.

Our team of supportive, qualified professionals includes a nutritionist, a naturopath, raw food chefs, health coaches and internationally trained yoga teachers. Your program coach will help you to incorporate the course techniques into your daily life, leaving you better prepared to take on the seemingly uncontrollable. Your personal wellness coach will arm you with information to enable you to make better-informed choices to discover what works best for you.

The Vikasa approach nurtures belief in one’s self and emphasizes the importance of a positive mindset to begin and maintain lasting positive change. You may have some bad habits but nothing is hard-wired for life; you can always be the person you want to be and to attract the things you desire most.

In the modern era, prescription drugs are given as a cure-all for general health issues, including managing our moods and energy levels. While we value and appreciate the necessity of conventional healthcare in many situations, we also believe that exercise and a healthy lifestyle can reduce reliance on pharmaceutical remedies. Often medication is a response that can be prevented with a holistic lifestyle that addresses the physical, energetic and mental states.

Nutrition for optimized Recharging.

It is important to understand your complex relationship with food and to find a dietary regime that nourishes you. Best of all, you will discover a range of wholesome, organic foods that you can enjoy eating! Our wellness coaches will review your previous eating habits and help you to experiment with new types of foods to find a new approach to diet. Can you imagine feeling more energized, vibrant – even creative – simply by eating differently? What we eat doesn’t simply affect our weight; it also affects our emotional state and mental health. Like prescription drugs, our food intake has a chemical effect on our mental and physical systems, affecting memory, attention span, and emotions. Developing our awareness is the only way to break addictive habits that may be affecting this dynamic in a way that does us great harm.

Yoga to Recharge

Sometimes we are turned away from our true inner self and eventually forget it’s there. As a result, we forget about WHAT we are, WHERE we are and WHY we are here. During the course, you will learn about Ujjayi pranayama (often known as Ocean Breath) to strengthen the diaphragm, and calm the central nervous system. This also helps to combat a range of chronic complaints such as colds, liver problems, and mental and emotional imbalances. We will also teach you the calming techniques of Nadi Shodhana, a breathing exercise that balances the masculine energies of the body (which provide heating, stimulating, active functions) and the feminine (which are cooling, calming, and passive). This will aid concentration and release accumulated stress.

Recharge The Battery of Your Soul

Balance is the origin of vitality. When we are out of balance, we are burning energy inefficiently. The Recharge program teaches ways to manage stress, create balance and harness the benefits of healthy lifestyle. Reconnect with yoga, nutrition and private one-on-one coaching sessions.

Personal coaching techniques aim to create awareness of behavior patterns that inhibit life performance. Gain control of daily life and live in greater harmony with a more positive mindset. In our normal waking state, we are sometimes bombarded with anxiety, bad memories and fear about what the future holds. Return to the present moment and center yourself in the foundation of your new lower-stress, higher energy lifestyle. Nurture a feeling of profound inner peace and recharge your soul.

‘Vikasa’ is Sanskrit for becoming visible, expanding and shining forth. Inspired by the notion of personal integration and evolution, Vikasa was created as a safe space to try yoga for the first time. Our open arms policy welcomes all levels and all people. Our heavenly yoga retreat in Koh Samui provides an idyllic setting in which to achieve this change in both private and group settings. More importantly, you will have a new philosophy and lifestyle to take home and incorporate into your daily life. If you are curious about yoga, mindfulness and overall searching for a better lifestyle, the Vikasa Recharge program is for you.

Access a higher state of mind. Tap your intuition and an unlimited source of creativity.

In the Recharge program, we will focus on holistically bringing you back into balance. Your private one-to-one coaching sessions will analyze your current habits and help you develop new ones. We incorporate the practice of pranayama, and breath control during both private and group sessions.

Prana is the energy of life that spreads throughout everything that exists. Prana links the mind and the physical body, powers our hearts and activates physical functions.

The physical practice of yoga postures—also known as asanas – supports work with the mind, where stress and other sufferings originate. Learning asanas will help you to strengthen your physique and to release stress at the same time. No need for expensive equipment – a mat and a positive mindset are all that’s needed!

Meditation teaches us how to clear the mind of such stressors and to be calm and clear in our thoughts. This creates an ability to focus with precision while in a state of deep relaxation. Nutrition is a key part of feeling energized and healthier. Discovering a better relationship with food is a key part of the Recharge Program.

Enjoy The Experience

At Vikasa Yoga Retreat, we have carefully nurtured an environment that facilitates personal evolution and development.

The ocean views, the palm trees swaying in the gentle breeze instill a sense of tranquility. The nourishing diet, the ambiance of the tropics, the sense of community, the private coaching sessions; These allow you to reach a new mindset that you can apply every day for a sense of contentment and peace within yourself.

Processing emotional issues and discarding bad habits can be daunting. Taking time and focusing on one’s own wellbeing – rather than money, career, or family – can feel unfamiliar. Ironically, it can be difficult to relax and justify the time and space needed for personal evolution. However, it’s worth the effort – the benefits of a supportive coach will help you adjust to the Vikasa lifestyle as you recharge your mind body and energy. Self-improvement is not all hard work, in fact it can be quite enjoyable. The Vikasa Bliss Spa sessions included within the Recharge program package will soothe you into a state of bliss with absolutely no effort required!

Feel a sense of achievement as you embrace a healthier lifestyle, and a sense of community with like-minded people on the Vikasa campus.

Arrive to Vikasa with a decision to try something new, meet new people, eat new things, learn something new and embrace the new. This is the mindset for transformation.

About Vikasa Yoga Retreat

Vikasa is truly a paradise location which adds an extra dimension to your yoga practice as a whole.

The environment is conducive to relaxing where you can disconnect from the hustle and bustle and focus inwards on your practice and spiritual growth. Here at Vikasa our core values are the three ways in which consciousness expands. This expansion starts with the self, it grows through our minds, bodies and energy until we are powerful motivators of connection and manifestors of change through our communities and throughout our world.

Vikasa is the ideal healthy lifestyle venue for a yoga training, due to its balance of secluded island paradise, freshly-prepared food and a yoga sala constructed in a beautiful setting and designed to get the best out of students – making it the perfect environment for study.

We are a relaxed establishment where you can unplug and reconnect to something deeper in a meaningful way.

Vikasa Yoga Retreat in Koh Samui offers several types of accommodation ranging from simple eco-friendly bamboo bungalows to full-sized rooms. We are not a one-size-fits-all kind of place. Our rooms are democratically priced because we believe this range of accommodation allows for a wider range of students to experience Vikasa.

Tips for choosing your perfect room: If you like to stay close to the beach, check out our red-roofed Prana Cabanas. If you prefer a garden location with a village feeling, try the Zen Bungalows. If you don’t want to walk down too many stairs, the Yoga Caves could be a good option. If you need a bit of extra space and a central location, Lotus Pads are a good place to start.

Yoga Retreat With Accommodation In Koh Samui

Our rooms celebrate simplicity. We have minimal decorations to create a feeling of zen. You will notice some of our room options have a “+” which means they are a little bit bigger than the standard category.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Recharge private coaching sessions provide the tools to determine how to build yourself a more positive environment. You will learn how to gently impose the Vikasa lifestyle on your own daily routine and surroundings. You will be able to enforce positive habits and stimuli and turn away from the negative to be the best you can be. The tools you learn will enable you to eschew the negative and turn towards more positive, affirming influences in your life. Embrace what is best for the new you.

The Vikasa lifestyle will be your bedrock, a point of reference you can turn to when you are stressed or uncertain. You will feel able to cope with any and allow you to uncover unconscious patterns and behaviors that are keeping you from living a balanced life. You will find confidence in getting to the crux of limiting beliefs that are preventing you from achieving your full potential.

Being equipped with breathing techniques and nutritional information will provide a solid platform on which to base your lifestyle. However, these alone will not precipitate dramatic change without learning how to fortify your mindset and adapt your environment to one more conducive to your new-found habits. Your life philosophy is created by your own thoughts and beliefs, which mold your perception of your environment and, in turn, your own reality. This can be positive or negative, depending on your mindset and on which aspects of your reality you place your focus. 

Aside from the obvious benefit of enhanced focus, meditation also enables us to look for the answers that are only available with access to the higher mind (intuition and unlimited source of creativity). 

There are also social benefits, as you will become part of an enlightened community, and you will be able to remain calm when communicating.

It may be difficult initially to adhere to a smooth rhythm of breath at the beginning. With practice, it will become easier. Through pranayama, we gradually control the mind and its balance with the physical world.

The course syllabus includes instruction on different types of meditation such as mindfulness meditation, chakra meditation, yoga nidra, kundalini meditation and vipassana meditation.

It also covers meditation postures such as Sukhasana (easy), Vajrasana (thunderbolt/diamond), Swastikasana (auspicious), and Padmasana (lotus).

Vikasa is located on Koh Samui, which is an island in the Gulf of Thailand. Vikasa is in the south east corner of the island, in between Chaweng Noi and Lamai. Vikasa is a 20 minute drive from Koh Samui International Airport (USM) and a 35 minute drive from the Nathon and Lipa Noi ferry terminals.

The best way to get to Vikasa is to fly into Koh Samui International Airport (USM).  There are daily flights into Koh Samui from Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore and others.  We will arrange your pick up from the airport.

This will depend on where you are from. For details of Thailand’s visa arrangements with specific countries see here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_Thailand

Although tourist visas are generally required, there is an exemption for travellers from 30 countries (Australia, UK, USA, France, Germany, Sweden and others) who wish to travel to Thailand for 30 days or less. If you are a citizen of one of these countries you do not need to obtain a visa. Note that if you plan to stay for longer than 30 days, it is possible to obtain a short extension from the immigration office on Koh Samui at some point during your stay.

If you are not a citizen of one of the countries with which Thailand has specific visa exemption or waiver arrangements, you will need to obtain a 30, 60 or 90 day tourist visa before arriving in Thailand

Yes, the Recharge program is suitable for participants of all levels including complete beginners.

Yoga clothes, tropical climate clothes and swimwear.  Yoga mats and props and towels are all provided. You may want to add an excursion to your program such as a waterfall hike, in which case a pair of sneakers would also be handy. If you want to use the Sky Gym during your stay you’ll need gym clothes too. 

The programs are facilitated by specially trained Vikasa staff with significant expertise in their field. You will receive input from a number of practitioners during your stay.

Koh Samui is a beautiful tropical island located in the Gulf of Thailand.  It is approximately 90 minutes from the mainland via ferry, but is easily accessible via airplane.  It has a population of around 70,000 people and has key infrastructure such as a small international airport, good medical facilities (including hospitals), banking facilities (including ATMs), good wifi coverage and good roads.  It is possible to drive around the entire island in around 90 minutes, and visitors generally either travel via scooter or taxi as walking is difficult.  Vikasa is located between Chaweng Noi and Lamai in a quiet area of the island.  It is possible to walk from Vikasa to nearby beaches, but guests generally stay on the Vikasa premises or rent scooters or taxis for trips to nearby markets and shopping malls.  The weather is generally hot year round, with temperatures often around 30 degrees celsius.

We recommend that participants download the free lifestyle guide and read up on the Vikasa Lifestyle before arrival. If you don’t have time to read it that’s ok too, we will review some content during your program.
