My stay at Kailash Ashram in the Grampians doing the Soul Retreat was an amazing experience from beginning to end. The hosts were warm and welcoming which made me feel completely at ease from the moment I arrived. The food was delicious, wholesome and plentiful and the lodgings were comfortable. But what made the experience special was the peaceful atmosphere and the people who created such a beautiful, welcoming environment. The whole experience was incredibly nourishing and I deepened my practices with David and Raya's wisdom and guidance. I left feeling refreshed and grateful and very glad that I had the opportunity to spend time there.

Wow !! What an experience. I really had no expectations as I'm a bit of a newbie and I left feeling like the weight of the world had left me. Raya and David welcomed me into their world with kindness and love. Sharing their experiences of life and passing on their knowledge. What a beautiful spot in the world, very peaceful and calming to the soul. Thankyou 🙏

Recently completed my fourth retreat here. Rajni and David have created an incredibly safe space to be vulnerable, learn and connect. Beautiful here, physically and spiritually. Oh, and the food is five star! 🙏🙏🦶

David and Raya provide sacred space, traditional teaching in a way that is understandable, relevant and accessible. The practices they teach are a tonic to anyone struggling with universal issues of life.

I had a wonderful and meaningful experience with Kailash Group during my meditation retreat. The sessions were peaceful, insightful, and helped me reconnect with myself and find a sense of inner calm. The guidance and overall environment were warm, supportive, and welcoming. I’m truly grateful for the experience and would highly recommend Kailash Group to anyone looking for mindfulness, self-awareness, and a little peace away from everyday life. 🙏

I went to the Soul retreat in May 26. It was life changing. You are in safe hands with David and Raya. I now have a daily practice to take home. What a difference in me in just a few days. If you are in two minds just do it. A beautiful gift to yourself. Held in amazing part of the world. Thank you David and Raya.

Kailash Ashram offered such a warm, supportive and knowledgeable space to rest, reflect and meditate. David and Raya kept us occupied each day of the retreat with meditation and hatha yoga in the morning and sessions on soul and body to bring us into the present throughout the day and filled our belly and soul with food and nourishment. All the while exploring how best to achieve what we were seeking. Highly recommend every aspect of the soul retreat! Thank you. I will be returning.

My experience at Kailash Ashram was life changing. David and Raya are the most beautiful souls you can ever meet, and they live and breathe what they teach and mentor. I felt welcomed, safe & nurtured in the company of like minded souls. The content of the course was well thought out, interesting and engaging, with challenges that gently pushed you past your comfort zone. The structure of the days was comfortable, with enough down time to enjoy the beautiful property. The food was nourishing, flavoursome, varied and plentiful. A wonderful, memorable experience 🙏🧘‍♀️

My experience at Kailash Ashram will never be forgotten. The depth of knowledge and experience that David and Raya brought to the retreat was invaluable and transformational. The surroundings were also incredible, enhancing the immersive experience of the Soul Retreat. Thank you again David and Raya.

Loved the Soul Retreat which nourished mind, body and soul. David and Raya were warm and welcoming. The Ashram is nestled in beautiful bushland. Home cooked delicious vegetarian meals were provided throughout our stay. The experience was transformational 🙏🏻

Elements of Yoga - 30th October to 3rd November 2026 (Melbourne Cup Weekend)

In the ancient system of Yoga, we uncover the hidden relationship between mind, body, nature and Soul so that we can live a life in alignment, free from suffering.

During this retreat you will utilise both traditional yogic practices and mindfulness in nature practices to understand yourself according to the yogic framework of 'the Elements.'

These Elements; Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space, Mind and Soul are what constitute our lived experience, and with the knowledge we will share with you you will be able to make lifestyle adjustments to attain a more harmonious way of being.

For those that have attended the Soul Retreat, this is a great second retreat to explore in a deeper way the knowledge of the chakras and elements, and to set up a clear vision for what a life in balance looks like for you.

For students new to the Ashram, you are welcome to join though we will require you to familiarise yourself with the core Himalayan Meditation practice of the Ashram via our online teachings (we will supply it for free after you book in.)
