Step away from the noise, and give yourself the space to truly reset — four days in the Himalayas, held by a circle of women who understand.
A rhythm designed around what a woman's nervous system actually needs — not another packed itinerary.
Mindful yoga, restorative stretching, dance & embodied movement.
Candlelight tratak meditation and a sound bath under singing bowls.
Ayurveda-led nutrition, wholesome mountain breakfasts & dinners.
A guided Himalayan nature walk — slow, unhurried, in mountain air.
A curated Garhwali culinary experience — the region's flavours & traditions.
A circle of inspiring women — unhurried conversation, laughter, new friendships.
Deepti built Yogami on the belief that wellness should be grounded and livable, not aspirational. She leads the retreat's yoga, breathwork and Ayurveda threads.
Urmilla brings movement out of the studio mirror and into the body — dance, expression and play, with zero performance pressure attached.
Garima weaves together movement, sound and devotion — leading Anhād's sound healing sessions with a practice rooted in stillness and vibration.
Shlok brings together rhythm, movement, sound and creative expression — leading Anhād's Drum Circle Evening as a space to reconnect, release and simply be present.
A practical Ayurveda-led session on nourishing habits you can actually keep, led by Dr. Sarita Dimri, co-host of Annfield Cottage.
A Gold-rated heritage homestay built across several acres of green, close to Woodstock School — Annfield Cottage is an ancestral, colonial-style property owned and run by Brigadier (Retd) Ravi Dimri and Dr. Sarita Dimri. Every room set is named after a legendary battle or hero of the Kumaon Regiment, and every window opens onto the Doon Valley or the Woodstock forest.
Expect fireside evenings, a working Polyhouse garden that supplies the kitchen, sundowners on The Nest's open sundeck, a private putting green and croquet lawn for lazy afternoons, and Forces-style hospitality that feels less like a hotel stay and more like being hosted.
The "Queen of the Hills" and its quieter, older sibling — chosen deliberately, not incidentally.
Landour sits just above Mussoorie's bustle — a scatter of colonial-era cottages, deodar forests and cobbled lanes where the loudest sound is usually a langur on a tin roof, the same lanes that recently played backdrop to Netflix's Musafir Cafe. Annfield Cottage is a short drive up from the main road, with those quiet cobbled lanes just a stroll from the gate.
Each evening between October and February, Mussoorie's ridge puts on a phenomenon called the Winterline — a false, glowing horizon of deep reds, mauves and inky blue that forms as cold mountain air traps warmer, dust-laden air rising from the Doon Valley below. It's visible from exactly two places in the world: Mussoorie, and the Swiss Alps. We land during the season for it — no promises on any given evening, but the odds are in our favour.
Just beyond the gate, a quiet lane threads through deodar and oak toward Landour Bakehouse — langurs on tin roofs the loudest interruption. It's an easy, unhurried walk, and one of Landour's simplest pleasures.
The bakery worth the walk — worth the whole trip, really.
Prayer flags and a 360° view of the Doon Valley at sunset.
Four days inside one of India's most storied hill stations — forest walks, mountain light, and the kind of quiet that's hard to manufacture back home.
Most of the women who'll be in this room are used to being the one who holds things together — at work, at home, for everyone else. Anhād is built on a simple idea: for four days, no one here needs to perform, caretake, or explain themselves.
There's a particular kind of ease that happens in a room made only of women — conversations go deeper faster, movement feels less self-conscious, rest feels less like something to apologise for. That's not incidental to Anhād. It's the whole design.
A small, intimate group by design — not a large batch retreat.
Anhād isn't a batch you attend and forget — it's the start of a community you'll keep returning to.
