Sat Manav Yoga Ashram

Sat Manav Yoga Ashram Expanding consciousness. Enhancing life. Emanating fulfillment. Yoga~Meditation~Retreats~Healing We are in a rural area located in the western mountains of Maine.

The Ashram is on 165 acres of woodland with a stream running through it that can be heard throughout the property, which can be enjoyed by walking our 4 miles of trails. All of the buildings at the Hermitage were constructed by members of the community with natural products and sustainability in mind. Our buildings include a 24’ by 40’ Straw Bale Yoga hall or Shala, a Treatment Kutir (hut), two gu

est houses, two log Saunas located near the stream, three Temples designed after the Indian tradition for the daily practice of meditation and worship, the Prasad Shala or kitchen, our eating hall which surrounds one of the Temples, three houses for the residing Practitioners and the home of our Gurus and family located above one of the Temples. All of our retreats, Yoga Work Shops, etc. are staffed by the residents of Sat Manav. We have no power except for two moderate solar systems to keep the environment as pure as possible.

✨ Join us this weekend. Something special is happening. ✨

In just three days, we gather to celebrate one of the most powerful forces in the universe: the Goddess! Vasant Pachami celebrates Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom, music, learning, and clarity—through traditional ceremony, fire, yoga, meditation, storytelling, live music, dancing, and shared meals.

It may be cold outside, but we’ll be warm and fully alive—with steaming Ashram-made chai, nourishing vegan Indian feasts, glowing fires, movement, meditation and a wood fired sauna!
Children are welcome.

• Full weekend: $300 suggested donation
• Single day: $108 suggested donation
Details: Vasant Panchami: Saraswati Puja ~ Celebrating the Light of Knowledge

Come for one day or stay for the whole weekend!
Come curious, tired, inspired, or seeking.
Leave nourished, clear, and uplifted about our potential to reverse the ignorance in this world that is the source of all that is wrong!

Happy Winter Solstice.
The shortest day, the longest night,
and the quiet turning of the Earth toward the light.

Solstice comes from the Latin solstitium —
sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still).
A reminder that real change is born of
quiet, consistent discipline.

As the light begins its slow return,
may your practice deepen,
your choices be aligned with real growth and true fulfillment, and may the coming light illuminate humanity’s way forward to clarity and compassion!

Warm Solstice wishes to all.

🌧️ After the driest summer Maine has seen in decades, we’re praying for rain.

These images were filmed last year, when the Ashram was blessed with days of steady downpour—the sound of life itself returning.

Rain is not just weather. It is the circulation of life on Earth, the same pulse that moves through our own breath and blood. When it slows, everything suffers.

Human beings have forgotten how to live in rhythm with this great system of Life, at our peril.

At Sat Manav Yoga Ashram, this is what we practice—the Yoga that restores alignment between human effort and Nature’s intelligence.

Every action matters.
To live as Yogis is to live as part of the remedy. Join us in rediscovering your true nature as a life-enhancing being on our Mother Earth.🌿
