Ananda Spa is nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas in India, within a hundred-acre Maharaja’s Palace Estate. It is surrounded by forest and faces the spiritual town of Rishikesh and the Ganges. There are frequent flights from Delhi International Airport to Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun and then a picturesque drive to the resort in a private car.
You don’t have to be in an ashram to learn meditation. These luxury meditation retreats are thoroughly authentic. Each guest is guided through Pratyahara (withdrawal of the senses from the mind), Dharana (focusing of the mental awareness) and towards experience of Dhyana (continued meditative awareness). Enjoy a specially curated Ayurvedic menu and plenty of time to pause and look within.
These luxury meditation retreats at the foothills of the Himalayas are for those of you who want to pause and look within but are not prepared to rough it. Ananda Spa is India’s leading Ayurvedic Health Resort, focusing on ancient therapies to heal the body, mind and soul. If you’re suffering from stress and anxiety, have trouble sleeping or feel burned-out then a meditation vacation will help you to pause, unwind and learn life-long tools to remain harmonious.
Luxury Meditation Retreats offer you an opportunity to pause and learn the tools to reduce stress and anxiety. Mindfulness techniques are now accepted a successful way to balance the mind and enhance holistic health.
The Dhyana Meditation program is a luxury wellness vacation in India which uses the practice of meditation as one of the key tools to bring harmony to the mind. In our fast paced world of connectivity, it’s increasingly difficult to disconnect and be at one with nature. Set within a Maharaja’s Estate in the Himalayas, Ananda Spa has the most perfect surroundings to allow you to withdraw from the world. You will begin by learning Pratyahara, a withdrawal of the senses from the mind, followed by Dharana, focusing mental awareness.
As well as group wellness sessions, you will also receive personal sessions on yoga and pranayama (balanced breathing). You will enjoy some Ayurveda Spa treatments and other Spa therapies. Your meals are created to balance your individual Dosha, produce derived from local organic farms and prepared with the guidance of in-house Ayurvedic Doctors.
Meditation Retreats are available for 7,14 and 21 nights but if your dates fall within these, simply let us know and we’ll design something with you in mind. Towards the end of this wonderful journey to self-realization, you will experience Dhyana or continued meditative awareness.
