After this revitalizing session, savor a delicious homemade breakfast in the charming al-fresco dining area of our heritage house.
Post-breakfast, immerse yourself in a range of enriching options: attend an insightful workshop, embark on a scenic hike through the surrounding mountains, or find tranquility meditating in the serene gardens. Discover nearby waterfalls, ancient temples, and Buddhist Gompas, or shop for beautiful Tibetan and Indian trinkets. For the adventurous, a refreshing holy dip in the waterfall awaits.
Enhance your experience with traditional Ayurvedic treatments designed to elevate your well-being. Choose from a Hydrating & Rejuvenating Abhyanga Oil Massage, an Invigorating & Detoxifying Udvartanum Powder Massage, a Mind-Calming & Soothing Shirodhara Oil Treatment, or other therapeutic options.
Dharamshala: The Sacred Resting Place
Nestled in the foothills of the magnificent Dhauladhar Mountain range, part of the greater Himalayan Mountains, Dharamshala offers a land rich in beauty and culture. The hill station of McLeod Ganj, often called "Little Lhasa" due to its significant Tibetan community, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama, is just a delightful 15-20 minute walk from where we will stay.
In McLeod Ganj, you'll discover a harmonious blend of Tibetan Buddhist and Hindu cultures. The area boasts numerous shops and restaurants, allowing you to immerse yourself in local life. Explore the surrounding nature with its stunning waterfalls, majestic mountains, ancient temples, serene monasteries, and sacred hot springs. Here, you’ll find the perfect mix of spirituality and adventure.

Navaratri & The Goddess Durga
Goddess Durga, a revered deity in Hinduism's Shakti and Devi traditions, embodies the divine feminine energy, symbolizing power, protection, courage, compassion, and victory over evil. Known for her warrior aspect, she combats darkness and ensures cosmic balance, while also representing nurturing grace and resilience. Celebrated during Navaratri, this festival honors her divine virtues. At the Inner Wisdom Retreat, you will have the opportunity to connect deeply with the Mother Goddess by visiting a renowned Shakti Peeth temple. Experience the profound energy of Durga, embody your inner shakti, and witness the sacred rituals and offerings of devoted worshippers. Embrace this auspicious time to balance the masculine energies of today with the nurturing strength of the divine feminine in the spiritually charged atmosphere of Dharamshala.

Where You Will Stay - Your Home from Home
We’ve selected a beautiful homestay and guest house that holds a special place in my heart, as it was where my journey with Ayurveda began eight years ago. Nestled in the foothills between Dharamkot Village and Bhagsu Nag Village, this charming retreat offers a serene blend of love and nature. From the moment I first stayed with the Rehla family, I felt an immediate sense of home. Their warmth and hospitality ensure that every guest feels welcomed and cherished.
The spacious rooms are thoughtfully designed for your comfort, featuring a cozy double bed, a comfortable seating area, and a table. Enjoy your balcony or terrace with stunning views, a kettle for your convenience, and an en-suite bathroom with hot water. For those cooler mountain evenings, a heater is available upon request. This homestay is not just a place to stay; it’s a place where you will truly feel at home.
