Rejuvenates the body and mind, through a combination of internal and external treatments
The 10-14 day detoxification program is a combination of Ayurvedic therapy and yogic practices which help to cleanse and detoxify the body and balance energy levels.
Although this program is very useful for the 10-14 day period, it is far more effective if the treatments are extended for at least 3 weeks. For even better results it can be extended for a further 3 weeks, making the program a total of 6 weeks.
Ayurvedic therapy helps to bring out toxins, and rejuvenates the body and mind, through a combination of internal and external treatments which are detailed below. These treatments arealso offered separately by the Centre if you do not wish to take part in a 10-14 day program.
One of the miracles of the human body is its capability to constantly rejuvenate and heal itself. However, when body energies (tridoshas) are imbalanced, due to either natural or unnatural causes, the digestive capacity is weakened, leading to the formation of toxic impurities which hinder the body’s healing capabilities. Panchakarma is used as a remedy to restore the body to its natural, inherent healing state, expelling toxins and foreign substances.
Pancha means five in Sanskrit, and karma means actions or therapies. Each of the five therapies are toxin elimination techniques, which target a certain dosha.This detox program offer a lifestyle change by planting a seed within you for improved habits when you return to your everyday life. They will help to both build up your health awareness and find alignment between your body, mind and spirit.

Our Kundalini Kriya & Meditation Course, held at the Vedic Yoga Retreat Centre in Rishikesh, India, introduces participants to Kundalini Yoga.
This practice is based on the teachings of Tantra, which come from the wisdom of the Himalayan tradition, and is believed to be the direct path to developing your inner awareness. It focuses on connecting you with your inner divine energy, known as shakti, through the practices of Kundalini kriya. These practices aim to awaken your awareness to the Source of life, which already exists within you.
In Module 1, participants learn foundational practices based on seven sets of kriyas, and as these practices deepen over time, students find that they promote stress relief and detoxification of the body.
The key to awakening Kundalini lies in integrating yoga and kriya practices into daily life and being aware of one’s inner consciousness.
It’s important to understand that success comes only from consistent practice which focuses on the process rather than the outcome. This involves ongoing awareness of life’s realities and learning the art of adjusting from moment to moment.
Anyone who is seeking something deeper in their life is eligible to join this course. All that is required is an open heart and open mind so that you can receive the teachings from the ancient Himalayan wisdom.
Each module is a 7-day course that builds on the previous module. Each session within each module involves both theory and practice.
