Ashtanga Yoga & Ayurveda Retreat
Yoga and Ayurveda is a perfect combination of purifying the body and mind to gain awareness of what is important in life and what is not. India is the land of yoga’s origins, and the source of devotional or meditative inspiration. Practicing yoga in a place where generations of yogis have bent their bodies is like tapping into a deep spiritual spring.
In these two weeks we will focus on our inner peace and the ability to sense the own rhythm by getting awareness of the own pulse and biorhythms, moods, dreams and digestions while also allowing ourselves to listen to the shifting patterns of physiological rhythms, thoughts and emotions.
The special cuisine and the daily Ayurveda treatment fits the needs of each individual constitution type. With soothing massages and oil treatments, the senses can relax from everyday life. The daily Yoga and Meditation program, which is held in a harmonious and peaceful surrounding, invites you to pause, turn your attention inward and rediscover your authentic nature.

Hinterland Village represents seven acres of lush greenery - a haven of rich native biodiversity and an oasis of peace on the outskirts of the city of Kochi. Hinterland Village boasts more than 180 native species of flora that grow abundantly and naturally throughout the year.
The Bodhi center at Hinterland Village was an initiative undertaken by its founder, Unni, to promote yoga and Ayurveda. Unnis desire was to create a space where guests and visitors could immerse themselves in spiritual practices in a peaceful and natural environment.
The Bodhi Ayurveda and Yoga center at Hinterland Village is a spiritual paradise set amidst jungle giants overlooking a paddy field. The space around the Bodhi Ayurveda and Yoga center is a paradise for bird watching and nature walks. The resort also has a swimming pool set amongst the greens so guests can cool off from the South Indian heat.
