Memorial Day Hot Yoga Retreat
with Hargobind
May 23 - May 26 2025
About the retreat
By the time I was 16, I had two pretty dramatic brushes with death. One left my face disfigured and the other left me with a broken back, laying in a hospital for a month.
I never imagined I would live beyond 35. I just thought it would end faster. In so many ways, I did everything that I wanted to do by the time I was 37.
I fell in love. I traveled huge parts of the world. I built working businesses. I had a great kid. I was happy. I did things I believed in.
But then I was still here.
The reason I share this is I think this period in time is quite unusual in human evolution. It is ahistoric for huge groups of humans to live this long. And it presents a unique challenge that our stories don't talk about.
How do we create meaning when we've already lived our fairy tales. How do we create the space to sit with our own thoughts and appreciate each moment when we already got what we want.
How do find whats important when we are getting bombarded with politics, fear, dopamine addiction, and a constant industry built on keeping us drugged and hooked.
My answer to this unique problem is retreats.
Here's what you'll get.
3 nights stay at Casa Om Potomac
All inclusive gourmet meals
We’ve made major upgrades in the kitchen! With the release of our book- Recipes for Building Community - The Casa Om Potomac Cookbook, we are so excited to share this With new recipes like home made protein bars, bliss balls, fresh juice, made from scratch ice cream, our new Indian food menu and more.
Each meal is crafted with health, vibrant colors and delicious family style dining in mind. We can't wait to inspire you to fall in love with dining and healthy eating.
DAILY HOT YOGA
Our 26 & 2 Hot Yoga class reduces stress. Increases mobility. Clears your mind. Gives you a great sweat and makes you feel amazing. In our state of the art yoga room over looking the river, you'll have your best classes ever.
Dharmify is my signature coaching method
Whether you're dealing with a relationship, business or health issue, dharmify puts you firmly in control of what you can control. Things like divorce, expanding a business or pursuing your one arm handstand are all perfect for dharmify.
People often use dharmify to:
open a new business.
leave a relationship.
heal from tragedy.
reprioritize
change their diets
lose weight
training for a marathon
reintegrate into a community
find purpose
This 7 step method will set our retreat up for so much purpose, intention and potentially life changing value.
Ice Bath 🛀 & Pranayama
Get ready for a challenge that builds confidence, positive mind set, & adrenaline. This totally safe, yoga practice could give you the spark you need to build momentum in the path of your dreams. For the first time we'll do this in the river now that we have our new steps!
Kundalini Cave Meditations
Our cave provides the perfect container to get back to nature. It gives perspective on whats important to do now and what perhaps should be dealt with in 10,000 years or so. Just like our ancestors did, we will submerge deep beneath the earth for a totally unique meditation environment.
Handstand & Flexibility Workshop
Come in with some ideas for new poses and we can go into inversions, back bending, hip opening or explore areas that you feel stuck. I borrow lessons from hand balancing, contortion, ashtanga, bikram, kundalini, and over 20 years of regular yoga practice.
Bonfire Release Ceremony
Since humans started walking the earth, we've traveled to foreign places to learn new things and become better people. We've sat around the fire to create and also to let go. In our letting go ceremony, it's a chance to drop a bad habit, forgive an ex, or release toxic ideas. Sometimes it works.
About Hargobind
In his words.
The people that are attracted to me are moderately successful misfits. They are people that succeeded in the business world but never really drank the corporate kool aid. They are entrepreneurs that found money wasn’t everything. They are spiritual seekers that reached a level of enlightenment and found they still had bills to pay and kids to raise. They are fitness enthusiasts that need love or business acumen.
These people like me because I am one of them. And I create events to serve them. I published books, made a reality tv show, built retreat centers, and all the while stayed pretty close to my lifelong yoga practices. I then bring this experience into my retreat offering for you.
