Brief Itinerary
Meet your Experience Designers & Facilitators
RK & Mahima
Founders at Shoonya & Hosts at Prakriti
From college classmates to colleagues, life partners, and now co-creators, our journey led us to the serene embrace of nature. What began as a temporary escape blossomed into Shoonya—a space that reflects our shared vision of uniting fellow humans in a timeless pursuit of self-awareness and creativity, nurtured by the compassionate energy of the natural world.
Prakriti is our debut retreat and very close to our hearts. We can’t wait for you to experience the tranquility of nature as we have since moving to the mountains.
Shambhavi
Asst. Professor at Jindal University & a passionate Yoga instructor
Once a software engineer, Shambhavi felt trapped by the monotony of codes and screens. Her quest for something more led her to do a PhD that reshaped her career & soul. Through life’s trials and darkness, she discovered the spiritual path, with yoga and meditation as her lifelines. These practices guided her from despair to light. During this retreat, together we will explore the transformative power of yoga & meditation, finding our way from shadows to self-awareness and inner peace.
Sai & Prachi
Founders at Oona and facilitators of Cacao immersion
Prachi and Sai have a unique bond with the mountains, formed during a trek in the Himalayas. They are drawn back by the purity of the food, where even the simplest meals taste extraordinary, reflecting the genuine way of life of the locals.
On December 1, 2023, this connection blossomed into Oona.
With Oona, they embark on a journey to enhance life through cacao. Their cacao ceremonies offer a transformative experience that blends intention, nourishment, and community—an opportunity for personal growth and manifesting the life you envision.

Floating Crest | नभ
A little sun-kissed, a little wind-blown, and decidedly lazy
Climb the spiral to welcome the morning sun. Mesmerize yourself with the sight of majestic snow peaks during golden hours. Witness the moonrise over misty hills, gaze at constellations in the night sky. Or simply relax high above, savoring your favorite drink with a cherished companion amidst the beauty of nature and community.
Sacred Oasis | जल
An aqua sanctuary amidst the water deficient Letibunga hilltop
A symbol to inspire human efforts towards reviving the natural water sources critical for healthy biodiversity, including human lives. A tranquil oasis in the making, beckoning the birds of Mukteshwar.
The word ‘sacred’ has been attached to this oasis taking inspiration from the book and movie, Dune (we would love to tell you more about it when you are here).
SunFire Lounge | अग्नि
A sun-drenched conversation and lounging spot
Built by the meticulous lifting, chiseling, and hammering of the mighty rocks and stones, the SunFire Lounge is the perfect spot to bask in the sun, sit by the fire and share the warmth of togetherness.
Solitary Cliff | क्षिति
Distinctly quaint with a bit of whimsy
A handmade cliff built with the inspiration drawn from the rocky slopes of ‘Chauli ki Jali’- the famous sunset point of Mukteshwar.
Perched atop rests a solitary stone seat adorned by the cascading branches of weeping willow trees, with gentle streams of water flowing below.
Swing Canopies | वायु
A place to hang loose in the mountain breeze
Nestled beneath the Floating Crest, two canopies await with inviting swings, offering an opportunity for airborne relaxation and rejuvenating deep breaths.
