If you are looking to step away from the everyday stress of life, then a trip to a health and wellness retreat could be just what the doctor would prescribe for you.

Instead of a guilt inducing holiday spent over indulging, choose a luxury wellness retreat that gives your body the best present it’s had in years. So, make most of the chance to take charge of your neglected well-being goals, and return home with benefits that will long outlast your tan.

 

We take a look at 10 reasons why wellness retreats are so good for you

 

1.  Time to focus on your healthy goals

Disconnect from the distractions of modern-day life, and find the inspiration to reach your goals under the guidance of health and fitness professionals. Wellness retreats offer a range of wellness programs including weight-loss, detox, anti-ageing, stress relief, sleep well packages and unlimited authentic massages at Mekosha – Trivandrum, so that you can return home as a whole new person.

 

2.  Guilt-free food

Our healthy holidays help maximize weight loss through dietary procedures such as detoxing, juice diets and macrobiotic diets. Enjoy cleansing your body with the rich nutritious food provided on wellness retreats to banish toxins and help aid weight-loss. Reward your body on a luxury spa holiday by cutting out the unhealthy options, so that you can return home feeling positive about yourself, while giving your body the chance to heal. At retreats such as Mekosha – Trivandrum in Kerala, the chef actually encourages you to learn the science of Ayurvedic cooking to enable you to continue therapeutic healing at home.   

 

3.  Heal with natural wonders

Your surroundings are completely natural meaning that the destination of your wellness retreat is often beautiful and untouched. This gives you the chance to reconnect with de-stressing methods such as meditation, detoxing and spa treatments enabling you feel refreshed, energized and healthy from your healing holiday. Meditating at Shathayu Ayurveda Yoga Retreat is a great way to escape the stress of everyday life.

 

4.  Long lasting benefits

Wellness retreats leave you with a healthy afterglow lasting for weeks as our healthy holidays provide you with the motivation needed to continue your regime at home. The knowledge that you get from a wellness retreat will improve your long term health and stay with you for years to come. Wellness retreats help give you a new perspective of life with Ayurveda lecture classes as the ones offered at Somatheeram Ayurveda Research Institute and Ayurveda Hospital. 

 

5. Healthy change from everyday routine

It is very easy to get absorbed into a routine and neglect relaxation within our schedule, whereas wellness retreats can be life enhancing, as they are often in locations that enable you to disconnect from technology, meaning that you will have to give up your calls, texts and emails. Through doing this you can detach from the pressures of your everyday life to help inspire you in becoming healthier, happier and stronger. 

 

6. Helps you to break old habits

Whether you find yourself over-indulging at meal times, or smoking during your lunch break, our wellness retreats will help you kick out your bad habits. By doing something completely new, you will have the chance to break your old bad habits and instead form new healthy ones, like Yoga on the beach and meditation at Sitaram Ayurveda Beach Resort.

 

7. Meet new people

Some people choose to go on a group wellness retreats so they are not alone and can enjoy the company of other solo travelers on a singles holiday. Daily cultural programs at Somatheeram Ayurveda Research Institute and Ayurveda Hospital can provide you with a great opportunity to meet like-minded people who may have similar goals to yourself, providing you with further motivation.

 

8. Strong Focus on Relaxation

Because we’re so absorbed in technology in today’s society, we sometimes find ourselves struggling to maintain a healthy work life balance. On our wellness retreats you are in new surroundings where the idyllic scenery helps to relax your mind and body, to encourage restoration and relaxation.

 

9. Encourages you to be more creative and bring more positivity into your life

On a wellness retreat you’re encouraged to gather your thoughts, and you will find that when your mind is relaxed, you’re able to be your most creative. The natural surroundings will help take your mind away from any negative energy that might be in your life, so that you can release all the negativity and instead focus on more positive thoughts by looking after your mind, body and soul.

 

10. Appeals to everyone

Anyone and everyone can take part in a wellness retreat, and tailor it to suit their own needs. Whether you are stressed from work, suffer from digestive problems, someone who wants to lose weight or simply wants a healthy getaway with a difference; wellness retreats are the perfect way to reconnect with nature and leave your troubles behind.  Now that you have the reasons to why health and wellness retreats are so good for you, find out how to choose a health retreat with our guidance and advice. Talk to our Travel Director, Nabila Hussain on 647-990-5710 or contact us here to discuss tailor-making your perfect wellness retreat.
