Kerala is all set to host a retreat on 'Mindfulness' at Kairali-
The Ayurvedic Healing Village, Palakkad from June 26 to June 30 2014. The
Retreat is great for everyone wishing to be introduced to Mindfulness practice
while enjoying the gentleness of Ayurveda.
It will witness therapists like celebrity coach Santhosh Babu,
singer-actress Raageshwari and American holotropic breath work experts Sharanya
and Dough, among the others.
This five-day retreat will offer tools and methodologies for inner transformation
of individuals keen to explore inner development.
"Mindfulness, as a concept, is gaining popularity with thousands of
people showing interest in meditation, yoga and mindfulness. Time magazine's
January 2014 cover story focused on 'Mindfulness
Revolution' while the Wisdom 2.0 conference, held in San
Francisco in February 2014, deliberated mindfulness", said the retreat
director Santhosh Babu. He further added that "This Mindfulness Retreat is
for people who want to be self-aware and work on themselves. We look forward to
working with 40-50 individuals -- corporate executives, businessmen and
families -- with an open mind, quest for greater understanding and the will to
explore more,"
Well known singer-actress Raageshwari is now a Facial and Iyengar yoga
practitioner. She began a long journey of positivity and healing when she was
diagnosed with Bell's Palsy, a nervous disorder that leads to the paralysis of the
facial muscles.
Other session experts include US-based Holotropic Breathwork trainer
Sharanya Naik. Holotropic Breathwork, is a tool developed by Dr. Stanislav Grof
as an adjunct to psychedelic psychotherapy and as alternate to LSD that was
once used in psychotherapy. This is the first time Holotropic Breathwork will
be taught to the general public in India.
Shruti Nanda Poddar, an expert on Vibrational and Sound healing, will
help participants get in touch with their inner self through the power of music.
The Mindfulness Retreat will also include sessions on Kundalini Yoga and meditation by Anita Anand and Pranic healing by Nidhi Jain and
Shivani Hariharan.
The Retreat is immersive and every hour spent at the Kairali Ayurveda
Village, the residential retreat venue, will ensure that
both the body and the mind are working together. A typical day would have yoga,
expert sessions, and a range of Ayurveda massages, music and feedback. Organic
vegetarian food, especially prepared by the Ayurveda centre, will complement
the life changing experience
Participation in a retreat
where you can make a conscientious, personal investment in mindfulness practice
is a very precious gift to give yourself. It gives you an opportunity to
indulge in the experience of a life with "wide margins" and taste the
experience of "just being", free from the distractions and
responsibilities of day to day life.
