Ayurveda & Wellness Training Retreat in the Nepalese Highlands

The retreat is structured as an immersive educational experience, blending classroom learning with practical application. Days typically begin with a morning yoga and detox session, followed by theory classes on Ayurvedic principles, diet, and lifestyle. Afternoons are dedicated to Ayurvedic therapies, self-study, and tuning into nature. The program emphasizes prevention and self-care, teaching you how to create your own dietary plans and safe, home-based detoxification techniques.

What sets Arogya Nepal apart is its medical foundation. Unlike a typical wellness retreat, it operates as a hospital with residential Ayurvedic physicians (BAMS qualified) who conduct medical screenings and tailor your therapies and diet accordingly. The retreat is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with experience, and covers a wide range of topics, including Panchakarma, seasonal diets, stress management, and yoga wisdom.

Located in Lakuri Bhanjyang in the Lalitpur district, the retreat is about 16 kilometers from Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport, yet it feels a world away. The center is enveloped by natural beauty, offering breathtaking sunrise views and, on clear days, panoramic Himalayan vistas. This high-altitude setting provides fresh mountain air, pure water, and a tranquil environment that accelerates healing and rejuvenation.

The experience is enriched by the dedicated team, including Dr. Damodar Ghimire, a residential Ayurvedic physician, and Mr. Bhuban, a certified yoga and naturopathy instructor. Their expertise ensures that the curriculum is both authentic and practical. With a maximum group size of 8 participants, the retreat offers a highly personalized and supportive learning environment. This course is an ideal foundation for anyone interested in Ayurveda, natural healing, or simply gaining the tools for a healthier, more balanced life.
