You sit on the wooden veranda as the morning light pries open the canopy and the nearby grove seems to breathe with you; birds stitch the air with short calls while a distant stream dares you to slow down. Nepal Yoga Home occupies a semi-rural pocket on the edge of Kathmandu’s greener hills, where practice moves from breath to body against a backdrop of scrub forest and village fields.
