All us need a break from our everyday lives from time to time.
Such a break can be both refreshing and revitalizing.
Suryavana opens the portal into the Buddhist world, offering a new perspective on life and living.
Hi all. We just had a really “full-on” run of activities leaving me a little “Frito”. “Fried”. If you had spoken to me Sunday morning at 8am when we were preparing breakfast for our guests I would have been in a very different mood to now. Six events one after the other with a few days to recover in between each event. Padmashalin did a great job of running the kitchen. We were blessed by a couple of young volunteers, “making lighter work with many hands”. The extra challenge was that nearly all the groups were new non-Triratna folks, that rent out Suryavana.
Hi. I am back in Suryavana after an 18 days odyssey of what has felt like epic proportions. As a kid we often took the ferry from Plymouth over to France, my last trip was as a bolshy 15 year old teenager in my folks’ VW camper. I have wanted to travel from Spain to Plymouth, camping our way through France and take the ferry Roscoff to Plymouth for a long time. With the kids. With the dog, with our family car! So we did it! It can be done.
In collaboration with Sudaka (Bodhiyoga International) we offer a yoga retreat, the «Call of the Forest» (13 – 19 July 2026)
A showcase of Bodhiyoga best practices and we present yoga through various modalities. Classical Hatha/Vinyasa, Remedial Yoga and Yin Yoga seemlessly exploring meditation and mindfulness throughout the day. We practice as much as we can «outdoors in the nature» enjoying the beautiful grounds of Suryavana Retreat Centre.
This year’s international yoga and meditation retreat at Suryavana. Sudakayoga collaborating with Bodhiyoga collaborating with Suryavana. Blessings to all and many thanks to everyone and big love and gratitude to Padmashalin, our venerable cook these days. Lots of yoga. 3 sessions a day. Exploring Satipathana. Mindfulness and enjoying the beautiful realm that is Suryavana!
Made it this far! Middle age! And I am just getting started!
I had the pleasure and honour of offering a class a the recent International Yoga Congress in Sirio over the Easter vacations. Thanks to Leni and all who organised the event.

hi all, I am about to head over to England. I am looking forward to a break. I haven't been "out of the valley" since August (2024). Bristol then Plymouth to see my beloved parents. It has its logistical complexities travelling with the family and having to leave Suryavana in capable hands (you can’t just shut the door and leave the place!). Looking forward to breathing the salty air, visiting old haunts, the Barbican, over to Mount Edgcumbe.
