Details of this retreat
This retreat is an exhilarating experience of a wellness retreat and a culinary tour combining the practices of yoga, mindfulness and wellbeing in tranquil Rishikesh along with the rich culture, magnificent forts and palaces and amazing culinary experiences in Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. It is aptly called the Balance Retreat - it is a treat for your soul and for your senses.
The Balance Retreat is not just about finding another country to experience. This is also about finding yourself and helping you to live more vibrantly alive and in balance. This is the time to start your own personal wellness journey to uplift your life. This is a small group tour of only 14 people lead by a renowned wellness coach from New Zealand. Join us to meet like-minded people.
The venue of this Wellness Retreat, Atali Ganga, is in Rishikesh at the foothills of the majestic Himalayas and walking distance to the banks of the Holy River Ganga. Atali Ganga is an oasis surrounded by Reserved Forest, and it is a thorough privilege to be so close to nature. If you book, come with the purpose of living in the valley of India’s holiest life force, the Ganga, for the call of the barking deer, or the midnight roar of the leopard, and for that lovely dull ache after a busy day in the great outdoors.
Join us for daily yoga and meditation classes on the riverbanks of the Holy River Ganga. After the morning of wellness and mindfulness, the rest of the day is for you to explore the forest or enjoy white river rafting and many other outdoor adventures.
