Two ways to get away with me in 2027


Dearest Reader,

Have you ever wanted to go to India but weren't quite sure how to make it happen?

Or maybe your soul has been craving the mountains — a real exhale, a reset, something that actually fills you up?

I have two very special journeys coming in 2027, and I would love for you to be part of them.

As someone who has been part of my world — whether we have practiced together, traveled together, or simply stayed connected over the years — you are among the first to know about these retreats. I wanted you to have the opportunity to claim your spot before I announce this publicly in the next two weeks.

~ SACRED INDIA: THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE & RISHIKESH ~

February 2027 · 12 Guests Only · $100 Holds Your Spot

Sunrise at the Taj Mahal. Sunsets on Ma Ganga (The Ganges).

This is my sixth trip to India — and your invitation to come with me.

If India has been calling to you, this is your answer. You will not be traveling with a tour group or a stranger. You will be traveling with someone who is already home there. I am a part-time resident and teacher at the ashram where we will stay in Rishikesh. My guides and vendors are personal friends. I know and love this land. And I have been saving this particular journey for the right people, at the right time.

From sunrise at the Taj Mahal to deep immersion at the ashram in Rishikesh — no rushing, no checkboxes. Just India, the way it deserves to be experienced.

And because I know India can be as overwhelming as it is beautiful, we do not simply meet at the airport. We gather together bi-monthly or quarterly in the months leading up to our departure — so that by the time we land, you feel prepared, connected, and genuinely excited for everything ahead.

You do not need prior yoga experience. You do not need to have traveled internationally before. All you need is an open heart.

Our journey:

Delhi · Rishikesh · Jaipur · Agra · Delhi

What awaits you:
Sunrise at the Taj Mahal · Sunset Aarti on Ma Ganga · Satsang and spiritual teachings · Waterfall hike · Ashram stay — Karen's home ashram in Rishikesh · Famous palaces and iconic sites in Jaipur · Pre-retreat community gatherings

What's included:
All lodging · Ground transportation · Most meals · All guided experiences · Pre-retreat gatherings and planning sessions

Only 11 spots remain. Pricing coming in 2–3 weeks — just $100 holds your spot in the meantime.

~ VERMONT MOUNTAIN RETREAT ~

Historic & Iconic Stowe · July 2027 · 16 Guests Only

Come take a long, deep exhale with me in my home stomping grounds of iconic Stowe, Vermont.


Vermont is my home state. Stowe is where I grew up — I love these mountains so much I have them tattooed on my shoulder. I am returning by popular demand, and this time I am bringing one of my favorite people on the planet with me: the fabulous Liat Pisco. We are co-leading this one together, and — we are exponentially fun together!

This retreat is designed for you to do exactly as much or as little as you like. Every excursion is completely optional. Come for the adventure or come for the stillness. Both are a perfect choice.

What awaits you:
River tubing — our signature group excursion · Daily yoga & morning meditation · Optional hikes co-led by my sister, Chris and me (we will affectionately argue the whole time over which one of us is the more badass hiker — each insisting it is the other) · An indulgent morning meal at the Von Trapp Family Lodge — home of Maria von Trapp · Ben & Jerry's · The Cabot store · A charming Vermont town · Pool and hot tub time

What's included:
Accommodations near the Stowe bike path · Breakfast every morning · One upscale group dinner · Indulgent morning meal at the Von Trapp Family Lodge · River tubing · Daily yoga & meditation

Investment:
✨ Single room — $3,150
✨ Double room (per person) — $2,750
✨ Companion/Non-participant* — $520

Only 13 of 16 spots remain — $500 holds yours.

*Companion/Non-participant includes lodging with a full- guest, included meals and river tubing only!

If either of these journeys is speaking to you, please hit reply. I am happy to answer every question, big or small. These groups are small by design — 12 for India, 16 for Vermont — and I would love for you to be among them.

If something is stirring in you as you read this, trust that feeling. It means something.

With So Much Love,

Karen "Durga Priya" Babcock

Dear Reader, Thank you! I have been thinking about all of you since Friday night. I am still a little glowing from it. There is something that happens when the right people find themselves in the same room — people who maybe didn't know each other before that evening, yet share so much more than just me. A lifestyle. A practice. A way of moving through the world and living life. And somehow the conversation just flows. Deeply. Easily. Like you have all known each other for years. That was...
