On-site, you can choose from the following focuses:

From 7 nights:

• Holistic Detox: Release toxins while optimising digestion, metabolism, and blood circulation. After detoxification, the body is nourished with essential nutrients, while the mind is freed from negative thoughts - for a holistic renewal of body and soul.
• Yogic Detox: combines Hatha cleansing techniques with Asanas, Pranayama, Meditation, and an Ayurvedic diet to naturally detoxify the body and balance the Doshas. This holistic approach enhances vitality and inner harmony.
• Ayurvedic Rejuvenation & Immunity Booster: Boost vitality and immune system through intensive Ayurvedic treatments, nutrient-rich diet, and Yoga. The therapies promote healthy ageing, reduce cellular stress, and enhance metabolism and skin health, leading to more energy, radiant skin, and a strengthened immune defence.
• Renew: combines Ayurvedic, Oriental, and international therapies to cleanse, nourish, and restore youthful appearance to the skin. It also strengthens muscular and skeletal health and alleviates conditions such as muscle stiffness, rheumatism, and arthritis.
• Yoga: Physically, mentally, and emotionally fit with Yoga, Pranayama, and Meditation.
• Stress Management: promotes a balanced, healthy life and thus calms both body and mind. A combination of Ayurveda, Yoga, Meditation, and emotional healing naturally reduces stress. The holistic treatments allow for deep relaxation on a physical, mental, and emotional level.
• Dhyana Meditation: supports the path to self-realisation through Meditation, one of the most important tools for harmonising the mind and unlocking higher levels of consciousness. It leads through Pratyahara (withdrawal of the senses), Dharana (focusing of mental mindfulness), and Dhyana (sustained meditative awareness).
• Sleep Management: combines a customised holistic approach of lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine to improve sleep quality and alleviate sleep-related complaints. Healing therapies and support from doctors, Yogis, and healers calm the nervous system, restore metabolic and emotional balance, and promote energy, focus, and inner renewal.
• Activ-Fitness: aims to improve overall fitness by combining the traditional Vyayama, a centuries-old Indian ritual for movement and breathing, with modern fitness methods. The programme integrates personalised fitness sessions, Ayurvedic therapies, customised dietary plans, Yoga, Aqua-Fitness, and hikes in the foothills of the Himalayas.
• Rebalance: utilises traditional Oriental therapies to promote hormonal balance. Through intensive therapies, it balances energy flow, alleviates pain, and revitalises the body's systems.
• Pain Management: offers a comprehensive combination of Physiotherapy, Ayurveda, stress-reducing Yoga, and an anti-inflammatory diet to alleviate chronic and debilitating pain.

From 14 nights:

• Weight Management: improves metabolism, provides new energy, and helps to lose weight sustainably and effortlessly. More self-esteem, strength, and ease.
• Ayurvedic therapy for fertility: can help promote your natural fertility and stabilise hormonal fluctuations. The focus is on promoting the health of specific organ systems that play a key role in fertility. Note: Please note that the programme does not guarantee pregnancy. It is aimed at couples or individuals preparing for a healthy conception and offers solutions for various concerns such as endocrine disorders, metabolic issues, PCOS, and more.

Ananda uses a traditional Ayurvedic procedure to balance the body from within and treat symptoms. Ayurveda, Yoga, and Meditation, as well as the healing of emotional issues (e.g., fears, depressive phases, and low self-esteem), are important components of this programme.
