15-Day Ayurvedic Healing and Wellness Retreat in the Himalayas

This retreat is rooted in the belief that most chronic diseases can be prevented and managed through lifestyle change. Each day follows a rhythm that balances yoga, meditation, theory classes on Ayurveda, and hands-on therapy sessions. You'll learn how to create your own dietary plans, understand the principles of daily and seasonal eating, and pick up stress-management techniques you can continue at home. The overnight stays are in a cozy retreat center with gardens, a library of Ayurvedic books, and a herbal steam room.

The medical team is led by Dr. Damodar Ghimire, a residential physician with a BAMS degree from Nepal Sanskrit University and expertise in Panchakarma detoxification and Himalayan medicinal plants. Bhuban, a certified yoga and naturopathy instructor with six years of experience, designs therapeutic asana and pranayama flows tailored to each guest's condition. The combination of clinical knowledge and hands-on yoga instruction sets this retreat apart from more generic yoga holidays.

Location is central to the experience. The center is perched in Lakuri Bhanjyang, about 11.5 km from Gwarko, Lalitpur, and 15.7 km from Tribhuvan International Airport. The altitude (around 1,400 m) is comfortable for most. Guests can enjoy spectacular sunrises, panoramic Himalayan views, and easy access to hiking trails that lead through local villages and jungles. The environment itself—fresh air, natural springs, lush forests—is part of the healing.

The daily schedule is full but not overwhelming. Afternoons include rest time, and the structured routine is designed to both detoxify and educate. You'll leave with practical knowledge about Ayurveda, a personalized diet plan, and tools for ongoing self-care. The retreat also includes a 30-minute massage, one hour of treatment, and a guided nature hike, all taken care of by a warm and attentive local team.
