COVID-19 Updates
Updated December 15, 2020
The Himalayan Institute has hosted numerous in-person private events, Mission Programs, and PureRejuv Wellness Retreats since reopening on June 12th. Our extensive safety protocols along with our commitment to the Pocono Promise—a shared commitment by large and small businesses in our region to protect the health, safety and well-being of employees and customers—provided a safe, secure and supportive environment for guests to resume their study and practice of yoga, meditation, wellness, and holistic health.
While serving our community in this way, the Institute kept a close eye on local, national, and worldwide COVID-19 case trends. Given the recent surge in positive COVID-19 cases, and in response to travel and quarantine requirements from the Pennsylvania Secretary of Health, the Institute will temporarily suspend in-person seminars and retreats through January 31st, 2021. The Institute’s PureRejuv Wellness Center will remain open to local Pennsylvania clients for integrative medicine and ayurvedic health consultations, chiropractic care, massage therapy, yoga therapy, and building resilience sessions by appointment. Please call us at (570) 647-1500 to book your appointment. Please view the PureRejuv Covid-19 protocols here.
The Institute’s Faculty will continue to provide an extensive offering of educational webinars and digital courses so that our friends, students and members can continue to study and practice with us and with one another. We have been thrilled to provide thousands of students a lively, interactive, state-of-the-art online learning experience since COVID-19 began in March. These online offerings from our world class faculty will continue into 2021, and will include online study and practice opportunities such as:
- Vishoka Meditation Course (Level 1)
- Vishoka Meditation Teacher Training
- 500-HR Yoga Teacher Training
- Several practical and inspiring webinars on yoga, meditation, holistic health and wellness that include both study and practice components
We eagerly await the opportunity to serve you in-person once again in 2021. Meaningful connections are critical to maintaining overall health and uplifted spirits during this unprecedented pandemic. Please see the links below for upcoming opportunities to join us online to nurture these connections and dive more deeply into your study and practice from home.
