We are near by and yet just far enough away from the cafe and shoping hustle of Rishikesh, the Yoga Capital of the World. YogAnga Retreat Hatha Yoga Teacher Trainings are held at Santosh Puri Ashram, approximately 20km downstream from Rishikesh, with the Ganga River and Rajaji National Park as our backyard.
Sri Santosh Puri Ashram is a hidden gem, an oasis nestled in between the overwhelming commercial yoga scene of Rishikesh and the crowded traditional spiritual pilgrimage town of Haridwar, in Uttarakhand, North India.
With less distractions, our guests get the most of their Ayurveda Consultations, Treatments, and Certificate Courses, in a comfortable, serine, nature filled ashram environment.
Ayurvedic Medical Science, passed down to us through generations over thousands of years of oral tradition, before finally being recorded in written form, explains a holistic way of living a healthy life, a balance within one’s physical, social, mental and spiritual being. Approaching health holistically, from the physical, mental, social-emotional, and spiritual perspectives, Ayurvedic lifestyle and treatments bring health to the unhealthy and maintain that of the healthy and thus enabling one to attain their purpose in life. The basic knowledge of Ayurvedic principles helps us to understand our individual nature as well as that of the universe, to realize the connection between the microcosm within ourselves and the macrocosm of the universe, ultimately leading to optimal health and happiness.
