Vana Ashram Retreat in India are healing vacations for those with between 5-7 nights to spare. Situated with a 120-acre forest estate, Vana is a refuge for the soul. It exists to serve each guest or ‘Vanavasi’ and asks all to ‘enter as equals’ and leave their material concerns at the door. Guests are welcomed to wear the resort attire and to begin to unwind to a slower pace.
Vana’s mission is to enhance wellbeing, so enter the retreat to heal and learn what your body, mind and soul require for a healthy life. Group sessions, music and art therapy, traditional medicine (including Ayurveda and Tibetan Sow Rigpa), yoga and meditation can all form part of this luxury ashram experience.
