In this paper, the propagation and behavior of spatial solitons of inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation in thermal medium will be investigated analytically. The theoretical model is established by considering the change of refractive index of medium due to heat deposition of entrance beam. The soliton like solution in such thermal medium was derived. The effect of input pump power and beam radius on the behavior of solitons will be studied finally.
