This 8-day retreat draws on Nepal's living Ayurvedic tradition, combining personalised consultations and treatments with a sattvic meal plan and daily meditation practice across settings in Kathmandu and beside Pokhara's Phewa Lake. Ayurveda, the traditional system of medicine practiced across the Indian subcontinent and Nepal for thousands of years, forms the core of the programme, with treatments tailored to each participant's individual constitution rather than a fixed one size fits all schedule. The retreat requires no physical exertion and suits travellers seeking genuine rest and a traditional wellness experience rather than an active itinerary, making it a suitable complement to a trek taken earlier or later in the same trip, or a standalone journey in its own right.
This 8-day retreat combines traditional Ayurvedic healing treatments with time in both Kathmandu and Pokhara, offering a genuinely restful alternative to Nepal's trekking-focused itineraries. It suits travellers seeking rejuvenation, stress relief, and traditional wellness practices rather than physical adventure.
This retreat suits travellers wanting a low-impact, restorative trip with no strenuous activity required at any point. It is a strong fit for those recovering from stress or seeking traditional Ayurvedic treatments in a genuinely relaxing Himalayan setting.
| Retreat | Duration | Focus |

Could not have asked for a smoother experience. Our guide's English was excellent and he explained the local culture in real depth. A particular highlight for us was a sattvic meal plan designed to complement the healing programme. Would recommend this to friends and family without any reservation.
