Aman Villas
Schedule precious time together this year in the comfort and privacy of Aman’s villas.
Renowned Buddhist monk and mindfulness coach, Geshe Yong Dong, arrives at Amangani this spring to lead a reflective three-night retreat in the restful foothills of the Teton Mountains, designed to bring about spiritual peace – the very meaning of Aman’s name.
The pursuit of peace has been a lifelong quest for Buddhist monk and mindfulness coach, Geshe Yong Dong, ever since he attended the Nangzhig Bönpo monastery in Tibet aged 13. Having studied with the Dalai Lama, he’s now a master in letting go and living in the present. Unlock his wisdom in this three-night retreat with daily sessions dedicated to breathwork and meditation at Amangani, including twice-daily training and practice on a chosen topic, guided by Geshe Yong Dong. Full use of the spa facilities, along with an included 90-minute Aman Signature Grounding Massage, ensures all retreat-goers will return home rested and restored.

Geshe Yong Dong became a Buddhist monk when he was just 13 years old, taking his vows at the revered Nangzhig Bönpo monastery. In the three decades since, his spiritual journey has taken him all over the world, from studying with the 14th Dalai Lama to introducing and teaching the YungDrung Bon Buddhism in Canada, where he currently resides. Today, he is one of a very few Bon spiritual masters living in the West and qualified to offer this teaching.
