Within this, you will learn
Philosophy of Ayurveda
Concept of Doshas (Vatta, Pitta, Kapha)
Concept of Agni (digestive fire) and the seven Dhatus
Importance and use of medicinal herbs in Ayurvedic treatments
Ayurvedic Consultations
At the beginning of your Ayurveda Retreat, you will receive consultations from our experienced Ayurvedic doctors. They'll evaluate your body doshas, assess overall health based on your body type, and address problems with personalised treatments; sweeping treatments from different standpoints will help you develop different results. A proper diet plan will also be created for you, along with suggestions for lifestyle modelling in that time frame.
Ayurvedic Treatment And Therapies
During your Ayurveda rejuvenation programme, you will benefit from traditional Ayurvedic treatments and therapies prescribed to balance your doshas (body energies) and treat common health problems. Here, you'll discover Ayurvedic treatments and therapies, such as Shirodhara, Marma and focused treatments which work to revitalise and heal from the inside out.
Yoga Classes

It implicates
Practising different yoga styles
Using Ayurvedic principles in your yoga practice
Balancing doshas through yoga
Relieving stress by performing relaxing yoga forms
Meditation and Paryanma Classes
Meditation comes in many forms, and all are not only for the mind and body but also for the spirit. Some people confuse it with pranayama, but they are distinct patterns. They have differences in benefits as meditation helps keep the mind calm, while pranayama energises the body through controlled breathing and removes mental blockages. When combined, their powers multiply, and one can achieve complete well-being.
Meditation and paryanma classes are divided into the following topics in detail:
The Ayurvedic meditation technique.
Techniques of mindfulness meditation.
How does pranayama practice help balance each dosha?
You can also learn about both concentrated and controlled respiration.
Ways to manage stress.
Ayurvedic Lifestyle
In Ayurveda, more emphasis is placed on staying healthy and preventing disease through proper diet and lifestyle than on treating symptoms. Rishikul Yogshala adheres to this, and you are taught the same during your ayurvedic retreat in Kerala. Our experts help you design a healthier, Ayurvedic lifestyle not just for the retreat but for life.
With this knowledge, you will be able to do the following
Form healthy habits that support your overall well-being.
Maintain regular sleep hours and incorporate periods of relaxation.
Customise your meals according to seasonal ingredients and your body's requirements.
You will get your body the exact time it needs to heal itself, with careful monitoring of its responses every step of the way.

Benefits of Attending the Ayurveda Retreat in Kerala, India
According to Ayurveda, the body often carries symptoms that indicate imbalance — whether fatigue or poor digestion, insufficient sleep or constant stress — thanks to the modern lifestyle. Ayurveda, with its rich wisdom, is a time-tested natural approach to gently adjust your body using ancient therapies, herbal applications & life practices that promote mindful living and bring you back into balance.
Below are the advantages you will gain by taking a few days of an Ayurveda retreat Kerala:
An Investment in Your Well-Being
As everyone knows, health is real wealth—it's the one treasure that will decide how much we can enjoy the rest of our lives. When you invest in your well-being, you're choosing a lifetime of clarity, vitality, and inner peace. An Ayurveda Retreat is one of the most potent ways to make this investment.
Ayurveda Retreats in Kerala offer individualised packages of dietary counselling, yoga, meditation, and, if required, specific treatments to purify the body of toxins. The detox package helps release stress, rejuvenates your mind, and restores energy, making you much healthier than before.
Re-Educating Yourself on How to Listen to Your Body
In our everyday lives, we neglect the needs of our body —powering through fatigue, ignoring stress, and not getting enough rest because "there's no time. The body's signals grow faint over time, like a voice we no longer know how to listen to. At the Ayurveda retreat India, you will eat when you're hungry, rest when your body speaks, take deep breaths, move gently, and feel. You will start to hear what your body has been whispering to you all this time — and, slowly, trust is restored.
This is simply healing; it's about coming home to yourself.
Stronger Digestion & Balanced Metabolism
The Ayurveda retreat includes dosha-based meals and herbal protocols such as Triphala, ginger, and cumin teas, all designed to support your digestive fire (Agni) and prevent bloating. These practices help promote better metabolism, while your meals are crafted to be both delicious and nourishing, keeping you satisfied, energised, and revitalised throughout the day.
Restorative Sleep & Mental Calm
Ayurvedic experts always recommend a daily routine of yoga and meditation, complemented by Shirodhara—a treatment where warm oil is gently poured onto your forehead while you remain relaxed yet awake—and calming herbs like Ashwagandha and Jatamansi. These practices help naturally reset your nervous system, allowing for deep, uninterrupted sleep. Upon waking, you feel refreshed and clear-headed, with a sense of calm that lingers long after the retreat.
The Skin, Hair & Glow Naturally
Ayurvedic retreats not only cure internal organs; they can also treat external cells and body parts with suited herbal massages and treatments using neem, sandalwood, and turmeric oils, as well as herbal tonics such as Amla and Manjistha. These treatments revitalise your skin and hair from within. You see a natural glow that arises from internal harmony.
Emotional Clarity & Inner Peace
During your Ayurveda retreat, doctors will help you to release emotional blocks, soothe your mind, and restore your inner balance while awakening a sense of lasting peace and mental clarity through guided meditations, breathing practices, and Ayurvedic herb rituals such as Brahmi, Shankhapushpi, and Gotu Kola, as needed.
Dinacharya – The Power of Routine
An Ayurveda retreat helps us realise that a structured daily routine is essential —known as "Dinacharya" — because it enables you to incorporate wellness into your daily life. Following this system — whether in the morning routine or in the winding-down for a good night's sleep — will bring consistent improvements in digestive function, support energy levels, and restore balance.
Ritucharya – Seasonal Wellness
At Ayurveda retreats, you discover that your lifestyle, diet and daily schedule should change with the seasons – whether summer monsoon or winter. In return, these practices support immune function, enhance energy, balance the body, and increase your resistance to seasonal illness, enabling you to live in perfect health and harmony with nature all year round.

Kerala - The Birthplace of Ayurveda
Kerala is where it all began. Here, Ayurvedic traditional therapies have been perfected over the centuries in their place of origin, where Kerala's location plays a significant role. Our Kerala Ayurveda Retreat allows you to experience them as they are authentically performed.
Traditional Ayurvedic Way Of Healing

Whichever Ayurveda package you select, every one of our treatments is designed to balance your doshas, detoxify, or recharge — just as Ayurveda has been prescribing for thousands of years.
Personalised Healing Process
On arrival at Rishikul Yogshala, the first thing our Ayurvedic doctors do is assess your body dosha profile (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and design a program—including correction treatments, yoga practices, dietary suggestions, and herbal supplements — as per your needs.
Herbal Depending Treatments & Remedies
We use fresh organic herbs and oils, such as Tulsi, Brahmi, Ashwagandha, Amla, and Manjistha, in all our treatments. These herbs, along with other ingredients personalised for your dosha, are dedicated to providing your body with natural support for detoxification and rejuvenation from the inside out — benefits that modern supplements cannot match.

Our team comprises trained Ayurvedic doctors and skilled therapists with years of hands-on experience in traditional Ayurvedic treatment. We also ensure that every treatment and consultation we offer is delivered with absolute authenticity, care, and accuracy, so your healing experience can be as enriching as possible.

You will leave the retreat feeling restored at every level.
