3-Day Ayurveda & Yoga Reset in the Himalayan Foothills

The retreat is a compact blend of yoga, meditation, and Ayurvedic therapy, set in the hills of Himachal Pradesh. Each morning starts with a gentle Hatha or Vinyasa session, followed by breathwork and guided meditation. The afternoon varies: one day includes an Abhyanga massage, another a guided Himalayan trek and a visit to the Lakshmi Narayan Temple, and the final morning features a Shirodhara treatment.

Abhyanga is the heart of the experience. A therapist applies warm, medicated oils in long, rhythmic strokes, working to stimulate circulation and calm the nervous system. The oil blend is chosen according to your dosha, and the whole session lasts about an hour. The Shirodhara on the last day is another traditional treatment, where a steady stream of warm oil is poured over the forehead—often deeply relaxing and useful for clearing mental fog.

The food is Sattvik, a plant-based style of eating in Ayurveda that's meant to be light and balancing. Meals are freshly prepared with seasonal ingredients, and you'll get simple guidance on Ayurvedic eating habits, like food combinations and herbal teas. The schedule also leaves room for rest, journaling, and quiet walks, so it never feels packed.

Rahuul Srivastav leads the retreat with over a decade of experience. He's trained in the Nath Sampradaya tradition and holds a degree in Yoga from Sparsh Himalaya University. Amit, another instructor, brings a Yoga Alliance RYT-500 certification and experience teaching across India. Between them, they cover everything from Kundalini and mantra practices to vinyasa and restorative yoga.

The retreat is designed for anyone needing a break, whether you're new to yoga or an experienced practitioner. The small group size means you get personal attention, and the location—away from the main tourist trails—keeps the experience quiet and intimate.
