Naturopathy Retreat at Yan in Rishikesh

About this retreat

This 3-day, 2-night naturopathy retreat is at Yan Retreat & Ayurveda Centre in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. Naturopathy is a natural approach that uses simple methods such as diet, yoga, meditation, hydrotherapy, mud therapy and massage.

Days include a morning yoga class, shat kriya, therapy sessions, an evening pranayama and meditation class, and sattvic vegetarian meals. Rooms are air-conditioned, with a dormitory also available. No earlier experience is needed. Guests with health conditions should speak with their doctor and with the centre first.
