We've led retreats in Greece before. We know the ferries, the best beaches, the taverna you'd never find on your own.

But the part we can't fully describe is what it actually feels like to be in a small, intentional group with people who came for the same reason you did — to practice, to slow down, to come back to themselves.

"I felt genuinely cared for — not just instructed."

That's what students say. That's what we're going for.

All levels welcome. Solo travelers welcome. Space is limited · May 30–June 6.

Anjali Deva is flying into Salt Lake City in less than two weeks — and we cannot wait to welcome her back to our East Millcreek space for four days of deep Ayurvedic study.

Here's what the weekend looks like: Thursday through Sunday, you'll move through hands-on sessions exploring your unique constitution, seasonal rhythms, and the daily practices that actually stick. Then on Monday, Anjali offers private one-on-one consultations — a rare chance to sit with a gifted practitioner and get guidance tailored specifically to your body, your life, your questions.

Enrollment is limited and this is one of those experiences that fills quietly. If Ayurveda has been calling to you, trust that timing.

Four immersive sessions exploring Ayurvedic wisdom — constitution, digestion, mental health & seasonal living. With Anjali Deva of Rooted Rasa. May 1–3, 2026, Salt Lake City, UT.

People come to Ayurveda from a lot of different starting points.

Some have been curious about it for years but never found a real entry point. Some have worked with a practitioner before and want to go deeper. Some are dealing with something specific — digestive issues, chronic stress, seasonal fatigue — and want a framework that actually explains why.

Anjali Deva meets all of them where they are.

Her weekend at YogaSoul (May 1–3) isn't a lecture series. It's four sessions designed to give you a living, practical understanding of Ayurveda — one you can actually use when it's over.

The Friday evening Introduction ($25) is a perfect entry point if you're curious but not sure this is for you. The full weekend bundle ($209) is for the person who wants to go all in.

No background required. YogaSoul · East Millcreek · Salt Lake City.

Private consultations with Anjali on Monday, May 4 — a few slots remain.

Space is limited for our Koufonisia retreat — and we wanted to make sure our YogaSoul community heard it directly.

May 30 through June 6. A private estate on one of the most beautiful small islands in the Aegean. Morning yoga with Rachel. 14 meals from a private chef from Athens. A group of 15, maximum.

We arrive on the evening of May 30th — the same night the entire village of Koufonisia holds its annual Fisherman's Festival. That's the kind of coincidence that makes you feel like the trip was already decided.

Spots start at $2,799, all-in.

If this has been on your mind, the full picture is at the link below. Or just reply here — we respond personally.

We've been working on something behind the scenes — and it's finally live.
The new YogaSoul website is here: yogasoul.org
We built it for the person who's been practicing for years and knows there's more. More depth. More philosophy. More of what yoga was always meant to be.
Whether you're curious about teacher training, ready to join us in Greece this May, or just looking for support that actually meets you where you are — it's all there waiting for you.
"Every person who's said yes tells us the same thing: they wish they hadn't waited."
Come take a look. We'd love to hear what calls to you. 🙏

Yoganidrasana embodies transcendence—stepping beyond the ordinary states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep into the realm of Turiya (superconsciousness). The deep tuck of the legs signifies inward withdrawal (Pratyahara), turning our focus inward, fostering spiritual clarity.

Practicing Yoganidrasana cultivates inner tranquility, patience, and resilience. It helps deepen my meditative focus, encouraging turning inward to connect with my inner divine. Just as Vishnu’s sleep sustains cosmic order, finding moments of stillness through this pose supports mental clarity and emotional balance in daily life. It reminds me that rest, surrender, and inner awareness are essential for my growth and transformation.

Bharadvajasana inspires transcendence of the boundaries of my immediate self, nurturing awareness and compassion. The gentle twist of the spine serves as a profound symbol for shifting perspective, physically and spiritually, reminding me that true growth emerges from the delicate balance of turning inward and reaching outward. Just as the pose gently unfolds the spine and widens my view, so too must I remain receptive to new insights and willing to share the wisdom I uncover along the way.
