Cleanse the Body. Calm the Mind. Restore Your Natural Rhythm.
Wake up to the sound of waves and warm sea breeze on the cliffs of Varkala, in the heart of tropical Kerala, where this 10-day Yoga and Ayurveda retreat invites you into a slower, more natural rhythm of living. Each sunrise begins with classical Hatha Yoga overlooking the ocean, followed by breathwork and mantra meditation to quiet the mind and balance the breath, while the rest of the day allows space for relaxation, beach walks and sunbathing and gentle self‑reflection.
After a personal consultation with an Ayurvedic doctor, you will receive a customized 5‑day treatment plan that includes 2 hours of daily therapy – a 60‑minute therapeutic herbal oil massage and a 60‑minute specialized treatment designed according to your individual constitution, supporting detoxification, deep relaxation, and overall rejuvenation. Yoga practices are thoughtfully adapted during the healing days. You will stay in comfortable beach‑view accommodation and enjoy freshly prepared sattvic vegetarian meals, coconut water and seasonal tropical Kerala fruits, creating a warm environment where yoga, breathwork, meditation, Ayurveda, and mindful nourishment help you return home lighter, clearer, and deeply restored.

Spiritualize Your Yoga Practice is a 10‑day retreat by the sea in Varkala that slowly takes you from physical postures to a spiritual experience. Based on mantra yoga, conscious asana, breath awareness, and meditation. It wakes up your energy, sharpens the senses, and reconnects you with inner stillness.
The program takes place in a private ocean‑view property. It combines daily yoga and spiritual practices with Ayurveda healing support every other day (5 treatment days, each 2h). Focus is on rhythm, awareness, and integration, making purification and balance happen naturally.
Ayurveda treatments are given for five days, customised after doctor consultation. On days without treatment you have space to rest, reflect, and go inward. This journey is for those who want to live yoga – where breath, sound, movement, silence, and self‑study become one continuous practice.
