The New Year brings an opportunity to begin our lives anew. Paramhansa Yogananda has given us teachings that will help us make changes in ourselves that bring deep inner peace and joy. This experience is designed to transform your consciousness and open your heart to life. Founding members of Ananda, Nayaswamis Haridas and Roma, will guide this transfomative weekend.
January 30-February 1, 2026
Join us as we learn to create a wholesome, vegetarian meal (appetizer, dinner, and dessert) and explore how a pure, balanced diet uplifts your energy and nurtures inner harmony. As you explore the connection between conscious cooking, yoga, and meditation, you’ll discover how what you eat can help awaken higher energy, peace, and divine joy within.

Ongoing Dates
A personal retreat or seclusion is taking dedicated time to allow yourself to focus on your thoughts, ideas, creativity, feelings—tapping into the part of you, the biggest part of you, that gets lost in everyday busyness and routine.
Rediscover the inspiration that flows from that silent place within yourself; that place that can only find itself in stillness.
Ongoing Dates
A low-cost program which allows you to stay at the Ananda Meditation Retreat while serving either 20 or 30 hours per week in joyful fellowship with other truth-seekers.
“My visit to Ananda Meditation Retreat was a really powerful and unique experience that I would recommend to anyone. The staff is very supportive and respectful of every path. Their kindness and joyfulness are a perfect example of what life could be if we were all willing to accept and respect each other.”
