Embark on a life-changing week towards true health and harmony through the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and yoga. Cleanse your body and mind with a powerfully rejuvenating retreat. Experience “shanti” a deep sense of inner peace that comes from cleansing and going within.

Indian Ayurvedic doctor Dr. Nayana Rao will be leading you through this incredible week of cleansing, rejuvenation and discovery. Daily ayurvedic therapies, ayurvedic diet, yoga, meditation and breathing exercises are all designed to allow your body and mind to detoxify, heal and rejuvenate.

The programme includes a pulse diagnosis and initial consultation with Dr Nayana Rao to discover your dosha (Ayurvedic body-mind type) and to gain individualised diet advice. You will receive two therapy treatments from Nayana during the week and daily saunas.

The retreat will also include talks and workshops so that you can learn more about Ayurveda and Ayurvedic food and therapies. This will empower you to continue your wellbeing path once back at home, giving you the tools and knowledge to recover a state of balance, physically, mentally and emotionally.

Learn about:

• The fundamentals of Ayurveda
• Five element theory
• Ayurvedic body types
• The fundamentals of Patanjali
• Ashtanga and hatha yoga
• Yoga and diet suitable for all body types
• Spices and their usage to balance doshas

The yoga and meditation sessions will support and deepen the cleanse and allow you to relax deeply, moving towards an experience of “shanti”, a Sanskrit word meaning peace. The yoga programme is deeply nourishing and therapeutic with specific postures and breathing techniques to bring the body into balance. You will work with posture and the spine to help rebalance and regenerate the whole system, massaging the internal organs and creating better functioning throughout the system.

The yoga is suitable for all levels and will help you to set up an individualised home practice to continue your wellbeing journey once back at home.
