Rishikesh
is often touted as ‘the world capital of
Yoga’, and is home to many ashrams and
spiritual gurus. The city’s eminence as a
spiritual haven was exemplified by the
legendary Beatles’, who spent months
meditating in an ashram and composed nearly
48 songs during their stay. John Lennon even
recorded a song titled, 'The Happy Rishikesh
Song'.
With the holy waters of the Ganges and the
mountains forming a backdrop, the resort is
the epitome of spirituality. Its serene
environment is a perfect platform for guests
to make the transcendental journey into
meditation. The resort has played host to
the coveted ‘International Yoga Week’
several times in recent years, and continues
to be a pivotal space for Yogic gurus to
impart their teachings.
By partnering with renowned Yoga gurus, we
allow our guests to practise this art form
with the most veteran teachers, right in our
gardens overlooking the river. Guests can
take group workshops or daily morning
lessons and can choose from a range of base
styles for beginners, to complex routines
for the experienced.
We offer the following Yoga programs that
can be practised with our Gurus:
Hath Yoga
Rejuvenation:
Hath Yoga rejuvenation is based on ancient
yogic techniques of detoxification called ‘shankhaprakshalana’,
which means ‘to wash thoroughly’. When the
intestines are rinsed, the residue and
tensions are removed. The skin becomes soft
and various kinds of skin allergies and
eczema are relieved, and can even disappear
completely. Pallid skin becomes purer and
clearer. The senses are sharpened to such a
degree that they feel as though they were
“muffled”, and have now been unwrapped. The
effects, not just physical, can only be
experienced much less described in words.
When the coarse tensions are removed from
the stomach and abdomen, one has released
all the untapped energy, and the body feels
light and healthy.
Neeti and Kunjal
Kriya:
These are purification exercises that are
designed to remove stagnant internal toxins
or inner blockages consisting of both matter
and its associated energy. These exercises
also correspondingly clean out energy paths
(nadis) and allow more energy to flow within
the body/mind complex.
Spinal Therapy:
We offer a series of yogic practices, which
works systematically from the base of the
spine to the top according to individual
needs. All vertebrae receive stimulation and
all the energy centres receive a burst of
energy.
Trataka Meditation:
To put it briefly, Trataka - also called
Yogic gazing - is a practice where the gaze
is fixed on an object for some time and then
that object is visualized clearly with the
eyes closed, as an inner image at the
eyebrow centre. Trataka has several benefits
that are beneficial to everyone and not only
mediation aspirants. Trataka is believed to
have a helpful effect in treating and even
resolving several eye disorders as well as
improving concentrative powers and mental
resolve.
Yogic Nidra:
Yogic Nidra is a state of conscious deep
sleep. Yogic Nidra enables a person to be
conscious in this state and nurture the seed
of great will power, inspire the higher
self, and enjoy the vitality of life. With
every session of Yoga Nidra, one actually
burns one’s old habits and tendencies in
order to be born anew.
Yogic Therapy:
Yoga has been shown to help relieve diseases
such as chronic back pain, diabetes, stress,
and fatigue. Apart from that, regular Yoga
practice also helps develop and maintain the
physical and emotional well being. Since
many asanas require bending and stretching,
Yoga is ideal for building strength in the
back muscles. It is also a great way to
improve circulation in body areas that may
otherwise never be stimulated.
