Additional Information Our goal is for you to leave with ‘right orientation’ to health and healing in the body: not working on oneself as a project or problem, but practicing and feeling the undamaged radiance that is life itself, that is you, prior to any and all health difficulties.

Maximum participants 14 people to ensure one-to-one care for everybody

• You need to come for the full two weeks (unless you know someone and wish to take the room for one week each)

• Each day will hold Yoga practice of āsana, pranayama, meditation, chanting and philosophy / discussion, along with….

• Ayurvedic healing treatments, including whatever best suits your body, constitution and health: such as structural marma point therapy (massage), shirodara, rice or herbal massage, poultice, etc.

Please be aware this is NOT a full panchakarma process, which is a very individual and often difficult process that needs careful prep and usually a longer time period. It is a ‘well-being retreat’ with treatments and education to serve our overall health, not a total overhaul. This is not a dramatic purge occasion!
