10-Day Ayurvedic Body Relaxation in Rishikesh

Kailash Yoga Ashram - Rishikesh · Rishikesh, Uttarakhand

About this retreat

This 10-day, 9-night programme is held at Kailash Yoga Ashram in Rishikesh. Ayurveda, whose name in Sanskrit means "Knowledge of Life", began in India and looks at a person's whole way of living. Here it is joined with yoga and meditation in a peaceful ashram away from daily stress. The stay opens with check-in and a doctor's consultation, including an analysis of your body type (Dosha) and a plan made for you. On the middle days you follow a steady routine of meditation or yoga, therapy sessions, a detox drink and Sattvic food, and on the last day you finish with morning kriyas. It may suit those who feel tired or stressed and would like to rest and live in a traditional yogic way for a while.
