  • Yoga retreats are obviously one of the most popular options, as India is the birthplace of yoga. At various retreats, you can find yoga classes running the gamut from Hatha to Vinyasa, Iyengar, Kundalini, Ashtanga etc. Depending on where you go, you can also indulge in yoga classes irrespective of your level.
  • Meditation practices are also a popular retreat option. Meditation in India is typically based on discovering spirituality, which will assist you in following the ancient path of enlightenment. You will not seek enlightenment during a short retreat, but the practices will teach you the art of feeling centred, rejuvenated, and in touch with your true self.
  • India is also well-known for Ayurveda, an alternative medicine system that can help you rebalance your mind, body, and soul through lifestyle changes and natural therapies.

Which destination will you choose in India?

Many yogis dream of meditating on the banks of the holy river Ganga and breathing in the fresh air of the Himalayan Serenity. Rishikesh is an ideal yoga destination due to the abundance of spirituality, the Majestic Mountains, and the Holy River Ganga. There is no better place on the planet to learn and practise the ancient science of yoga than in the Himalayan foothills, the origins and perpetual home of yoga and spirituality. Retreat Centres in Rishikesh, which is located in one of the most ancient, spiritual, and divine places in all of India, can serve a variety of needs of travellers who want to learn authentic yoga among other things, and provide a perfect getaway experience with its gorgeous landscapes.
Most of us believe that all yoga and meditation retreats are situated in southern India, and we are not entirely wrong to think so. Kerala is known as “God’s Own Country.” It is yet another popular spiritual retreat destination with rich natural landscape, national parks, serene beaches, and most importantly, for its Ayurvedic history. Along with traditional yoga, Kerala offers a variety of traditional Ayurvedic treatments such as holistic massages and authentic Panchakarma. Almost every retreat provides training and instruction in ancient Indian philosophies and practices. There are numerous retreats that serve organic Ayurvedic meals and employ practices that are rare in other countries.
So, when you visit any wellness retreat in Rishikesh, Kerala, or any other authentic retreat destination in India, be assured that you’re going to a place where spiritual practice is the central part of daily life.

You can heal your body

You can heal your body

Heal your body with a Morning Routine

It was March this year when I worked myself into a mental and physical exaction. In the coaching industry and on social media I learned you have to hustle all day and this for years to have success. I followed this hustler-strategy for nearly 8 years. I lost creativity, time for relaxing, friends and family. I noticed I was more sick this year than ever before. My body, mind and soul got kicked out of balance and my inner voice was screaming for help, silence and most of it for sleep. I was also suffering from a hormonal imbalance; I had a surgery done on my uterus and I knew now I really have to change something. Western medicine declared after the surgery for them was all done, mental exhaustion they said came from the hormone imbalance. I will get some pills and if this does not help I get some other hormones and this is it.

I Connected with the Ayurvedic Healing Community – ASHAexperience

So this was the moment I knew I could only help myself. I called Bijoya, and with her and ASHAexperience. I started my journey to India for Panchakarma. I knew I needed at least 21 days of healing. I learned I can’t do it alone and I knew this time I am only taking time for myself. Only me and 21 days.

Everyone around me, friends, family, and even my closest ones said: Anja, are you crazy why are you going to India for a classical Panchakarma? And what is this even? And Ayurveda? How should this help you heal?

I left everyone behind with their fears and horror scenarios. I know now it is time to heal holistically and Ayurveda is 5000 years old. They know what healing really means and is about.

Ayurvedic Doctors Consultation at ASHAexperience
I had a three-month preparation time with my Ayurvedic doctor. All consultation was done online. During Covid, it was easy to handle. I have already started to change my eating habits. Also, I needed to take a look at Ayurvedic medicines to prepare my body, mind, and soul for the trip. The whole organization was done by ASHAexperience. This was the most stressful part for me to let go of control. I had put all my hope, fears, and trust into this journey and Bijoya’s hands because I knew this will change everything. Was it easy? Not for me who started working less, letting go of the unhealthy hustler mentally. Start taking care of myself.

Not only was I changing my eating habits, but I did also start journaling again and meditating in the morning. This helps also a lot to have the go from the Ayurvedic doctor: I am ready now for India. Ready for the 21-day journey.

Travel Experience in India for Ayurvedic Treatment

I only organized flights and visas by myself. Other than that I was arriving in India, got picked up and a driver was bringing me into this beautiful resort. Everyone there knew I would be coming. Since the first day they have taken care of me. I gave all the documents from the doctor to my Ayurvedic doctor and when I had my first consultation they knew half of my story already.

It started in my consultation that the doctors treated me holistically. We were talking one hour about my condition mentally, physically and also my soul. After this I had a chat with a nutritionist and then I got my first treatment and got to know my therapists. They went on the journey with me for 21 days every single day.

I decided to let go of all control and told my doctors if they and my nutritionist can take care of my diet during the 21 days. So my focus was only on myself and how I feel about what they did. I got my therapy plan, and a plan from the nutritionist as advice on what to follow and what not. This is up to everyone itself. If you keep following what they suggest without judging you will have the best results. I was talking every day to the doctors and if something needed to be adjusted they did. And I can tell you they did more than what I expected. Never in my whole life I was asking for so much. I was asking for changes in my diet, I was telling my therapists everyday if I needed soft or more intense treatment especially when they massaged. Was this easy for me? Not in the beginning, because I was raised not to put yourself in the middle. Telling my needs and what feels good for me was my biggest healing process in this 21 day journey. Was it always easy? No Did I have good and bad times? Yes, especially mentally.

It took 10 days for me to really feel relaxed and to let go of fears, thoughts and how this process needs to go. Before my journey I was reading a lot about what people achieve in this Panchakarma every state they go through. This comparison stopped on the third day when my doctor said: Anja you have to let go of this. It dresses you out to achieve something. Just open yourself up to us and trust the process. Anything is allowed and anything is ok. Are you good with this? Ok. I needed the proof of my doctors to heal my deep beliefs, doubts and mental issues. She started to suggest implementing a routine while I was there and that was the time I started to understand these routines are helping to come back in balance and later if I keep doing them back home to work as prevention.

Little did I know that all these steps and the way Panchakarma treatments are built up helped me to cure. That was just the start of my healing journey. Does it finish when I come home? No, because there you keep continuing. Do I have to do it alone? No, I got help from ASHAexperience, my doctors and myself, since it needs a commitment from your side to really change something and have the intention to heal. Otherwise it will not work and then it really starts to become preventive.

Developing a morning routine without getting stressed out

The routine started already, and my treatment was every day at the same time.

I was getting up every day at 7am. Staring to brush my teeth and then having my hot water sip by sip sitting on my Terrasse watching and listening to the ocean. Most of the time I was taking a walk on the beach and after this I was having breakfast.

During those 21 days I got to know yoga for the first time and also pranayama (a yogic breathing technique). I started to implement breathing into my daily routine and also meditation to calm my mind. I also started to journal again. I was just writing down what I have been thankful for during the day. This process I kept up for 21 days.

I was not doing everything in the morning because most of the routines I got to know while I was there. I knew yoga, meditation, breathing and journaling from back home already, but the deeper sense and how to combine breathing and meditation works and how important those little steps can be for you to improve your wellbeing. I experienced this myself when I was leaving India back to Munich.

I was having a Jet lag the first few days and felt like sleeping long in the morning. I tried the first week because I still had time. But my body and mind woke up every day at 7 in the morning. And my body asked for the hot water automatically. My brain would not function if I didn’t do my morning walk or my breathing exercises. So after 3 days back home I experienced myself how my whole system is missing those little routines. So I started to implement daily self-care for myself.
And I can tell you it starts with this one hour in the morning or in the evening. The time you take only for yourself. This is where healing starts and begins. Starting and allowing yourself to put your needs first. And this is where all the prevention starts. It’s even like this when you fly. First you put the mask and safety jacket on and then you help your kids. And here it is the same with the routines. This gives me so much energy, time for myself and this was so easy to implement without getting stressed out because I learnt from my Panchakarma, that my health is my priority and my own responsibility at the end of the day.

My Experience with Ayurvedic Doctor Consultation Online, ASHAExperience

My Experience with Ayurvedic Doctor Consultation Online, ASHAExperience

Ian Matthews

Ian Matthews

I recently discovered that Ayurveda can change my life and it most definitely has. My name is Ian Matthews and here is my story of embarking on a holistic, Ayurvedic healing journey with Ayurvedic Doctors online consultation at ASHAexperience.

Growing up as a British citizen in South Korea I have always loved the outdoors and anything to do with nature. I am a health wellbeing coach who practices what he preaches! My healthy lifestyle consists of a fusion between Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Raja Yoga practices. I was naturally drawn to ASHAexperience’s online platform as I myself am the founder of a program developed over 20 years ago that helps kickstart people to return to wholeness using 100% natural tools and practices.

I came across this global wellness platform from a dear friend that I met in Barcelona. There has been a synergy in certain elements of my practice and teachings that are connected to Ayurveda, so I was looking forward to learning more about this holistic system and more specifically about how it would better my lifestyle. To me, Ayurveda is a total well-being way of life.

When I met my Ayurvedic Doctor, Taruna Yadav I was looking forward to an objective view of my own health condition. I walked into the consultation with excitement as I knew it would be tailored around my needs and requirements. I was asked questions about my health condition but also many questions that I would not have asked clients from a Western perspective. Dr. Yadav’s questions for me were much more relevant to the person I was from day to day, rather than ailment-focused – I loved it. Overall, learning about my mind and body was emotionally moving, in a nice way.

The suggestions I was given at the end of the consultation were totally doable. I focus more on acceptance for where I am in life, unconditionally. The transition into an Ayurvedic lifestyle has been profound. I realize that it is the perfect next step for my own practice and for that of my clients, post-inner-evolution. I have also prescribed a list of Ayurvedic supplements that I could take to better my health condition which was readily available to order online internationally.

My most valued take-away from my consultation with ASHAexperience’s Dr. Yadav was the importance, regardless of my own work as a wellbeing practitioner, to assess honestly my own condition and not to push feelings of recent family traumas under the carpet, so to speak. To be kinder to myself regardless. My acceptance and new findings have motivated me to tackle another health condition that troubles me for a while now, digestive cleansing. Knowing that I can continue my healing journey through the ASHAexperience online platform was also very comforting. I have met many therapists via webinar and they are all so inspiring, honest and very professional.

If I were to recommend this Ayurvedic healing platform to anyone of my choice, it would be to the whole world!

Ancient India merges with Corporate America

Ancient India merges with Corporate America

Corporate Wellness Program in New York – With Ayurvedic Care

Today’s average corporate employee is 10x as stressed as their counterparts a decade ago

We’ve ushered in advancements in tech and disrupted age-old industries. Humanity has achieved more in the last 20 years than it has in the 200 years before it. We’re living, breathing cyborgs. We don’t need to wait for a dystopian sci-fi future to experience this phenomenon. Every single person’s smartphone in their pockets is like a metaphorical robo-arm that can do magical things. We have the answer to almost any question we could have, right in our pockets.

So why is it harder than ever for the global corporate collective to live a stress-free and healthy life? Why do more people than ever before, clutch their chest in despair in their 40’s, doubling over as they fight off a heart-attack in vain? Why is cancer rampant- even in people with seemingly perfect lives with no familial history of the dreaded disease?

The answer is too nuanced for the scope of this post, so here’s the short version. The magical trifecta that promises longevity:

  1. The food we eat.
  2. How we use our body.
  3. How we manage stress.

They’re as inter-connected as the ear, nose and throat. This is where Ayurveda comes in.

Ayurveda is the ancient Indian science that focuses on holistic and personalised healthcare unlike what the larger part of the West is used to. It’s so deep and yet so simple. Most people who are new to it are left in awe when they learn of its fundamental concepts and how accurate it is in diagnosis as well as prognosis.

Simply altering one’s diet using the fundamentals of Ayurveda can change the experience of life altogether. It doesn’t matter if you’re tall or short, male or female, vegetarian or not- the science does not discriminate. It is the oldest science in the world and is preventative in nature. This means that its main focus is not on ailments after they occur but dealing with your body’s natural tendencies well before they occur.

Introducing these principles in the form of a corporate wellness program in New York is bound to have a positive impact and cause a ripple effect. Some parts of science are general principles and others are more subjective. Based on your body’s composition of elements, Ayurveda will tell you what to eat, how to eat it and when to eat it as well. These aren’t hard-set rules, but boundaries for you to keep in mind.

Ayurveda is a science that is subtly tied to the principles of Yoga. This makes it an experiential science. It is our aim to spread awareness about the benefits of this ancient science. We hope you have the chance to use Ayurveda to realise the possibilities of a healthy body and mind.
