3 Night Intensive Lifestyle Retreat Transforming Your Wellness with the six Traditional Yogic Cleansing Practices - Shatkarmas & Yogic Philosophy

With Swami Atmamuktananda

Limited to 5 only participants

22 - 25 Oct     $700 Book Here Early Bird before 12 Oct

The hatha yoga cleansing practices are simple in nature but profound in their effect. Hatha yoga traditionally, begins with the shatkarmas, a group of cleansing practices which help to purify and detoxify the body and internal systems. With this detoxification of the body, the internal systems are regulated, helping to manage the body/mind imbalances.  A must for all sincere yoga and health conscious practationers. 

The 3 night retreat combining practices with daily Yogic Philosophy discussion sessions and natural rhythms and the stability of the Ashram environment bring about a profound effect of change in vitality, clarity of mind and general wellbeing.

For physical health the practice is best done at the time of change of seasons to help the body adjust to the new season’s energy and qualities.

  • Nasal cleansing (Jala Neti)
