Welcome

Ananda Mandala Yoga Centre in Höghultström is one of the leading retreat centres for yoga and meditation in Sweden. Located deep in the forests of Småland, you will here find the peace that we all need occasionally in order to be able to listen within and to experience ourselves as a natural part of life around us.

Here we offer retreats with deep-going yoga and meditation both for beginners and the advanced as well as an extensive yoga teacher education. We also arrange special programs for groups and businesses.

Ananda Mandala is part of a beautiful watermill environment around the stream. We still use the waterfall to generate our own green electricity. A spaceious and beautiful yoga room is built in the old barn over the horse stable, and the original mill house by the stream is transformed into comfortable guest rooms. A sauna heated by firewood is located in a log house on the edge of the forest by the mill pond. The vegetarian food which is served is organic, and most of the vegetables, fruits and berries are harvested in our own garden.

In Sanskrit Ananda means happiness or bliss. It is our fundamental state of being. Mandala means a diagram or a place. Our vision is that at Ananda Mandala you can enjoy a different holiday where you experience the joy within yourself.
