Bending Bodhi Yoga

Wild & Free: A Yoga Retreat in the Scottish Highlands

July 22nd-29th 2026 Stirling, Scotland

Step into a land of ancient castles, misty moors, and rolling green hills as we embark on a soul-nourishing journey in the heart of Scotland. Join us for a luxury yoga retreat at a stunning private farm, perched at the gateway to the Scottish Highlands, where the air is crisp, the land is steeped in history, and every moment invites a deeper connection to nature, adventure, and self.

Our home for the week is a breathtaking retreat space that offers tranquility and comfort in equal measure. This working farm is surrounded by endless green pastures and features hot tubs, an animal sanctuary, and a gorgeous yoga studio—all designed to bring you back to presence, peace, and joy. Each morning will begin with an invigorating yoga practice to awaken our bodies and minds, setting the foundation for days filled with exploration and discovery. Evenings will offer restorative and grounding practices to help us absorb the magic of our surroundings.

Adventure Awaits

Beyond the farm, we will embark on unforgettable day trips through the Scottish landscape, soaking in the wild beauty and rich history that make this country so unique.

🏰 Explore the enchanting city of Edinburgh – Wander its medieval streets, marvel at the stunning architecture, and visit the legendary Edinburgh Castle, perched high on an ancient volcanic rock.

⛰️ Journey into the Scottish Highlands – A land of rugged mountains, mystical lochs, and endless skies, the Highlands hold an energy that must be felt to be understood. This is where Scotland’s raw beauty is on full display.

🌿 Hike some of the best hillwalking trails in the world – Scotland is famous for its wild landscapes and scenic walks. Whether it’s a peaceful forest trail or a breathtaking mountain pass, we will explore the land as the Celts once did—on foot, feeling the pulse of the earth beneath us.

🏰 Visit fairytale-like Scottish castles – Ancient fortresses tell the stories of Scotland’s past, standing strong amidst some of the most stunning scenery imaginable. These timeless structures remind us of the power of resilience, just as our practice reminds us to stand strong within ourselves.

🥘 Indulge in farm-to-table cuisine – Our meals will be thoughtfully prepared by the farm’s private chef, using the freshest local ingredients to nourish us after our days of movement and adventure.

The Magic of Travel & Yoga

Travel and yoga share a common thread: both take us on a journey inward and outward. As we explore Scotland’s breathtaking landscapes, we will also explore the landscapes of our own hearts and minds. Just as we flow through yoga postures, adapting to what each moment brings, so too does travel teach us surrender, presence, and wonder.

Scotland is wild, untamed, and deeply soulful—a land that whispers of ancient traditions, Celtic myths, and an unbreakable connection to the earth. This retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and step fully into the present moment—whether that means feeling the wind on your skin atop a Highland ridge, sinking into stillness in a cozy yoga practice, or laughing with new friends over a nourishing meal.

Join Us

This retreat is a journey into the heart of Scotland and the heart of yourself. Whether you crave adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, this week will be an unforgettable blend of movement, mindfulness, and magic.
