New Delhi, June 21 (IANSlife) Yoga is much more than just body bending and twisting, it has the potential to help you discover your true self.

India, the country where this beautiful practise originated, is brimming with exquisite yoga retreats where you can study and engage in yoga. Some of the most exclusive ones include :

Amanbagh, Rajasthan, India

Yoga and Mindfulness Retreat

With its ancient forts and tiger-inhabited wilds, Rajasthan is renowned for its beauty, nowhere more concentrated than in the Aravalli Hills in the garden oasis that is Amanbagh. Once the staging area for royal tiger hunts, today the rose-hued cupolas and vaulted entrances of the resort’s Mughal-inspired structures soar from the greenery – utterly peaceful and consummately private.

Since its inception in ancient India, yoga has been adopted globally as a transformative pathway to a stronger body and a calmer mind. Here in the practice’s motherland, Amanbagh’s bespoke programme of movement and meditation is designed to offer those new to yoga a comprehensive introduction, and to enhance the practice and understanding of more experienced yogis.

The Immersion begins with an in-depth consultation with Amanbagh’s resident Ayurvedic physician to determine individual health goals, identify internal obstacles, and develop a balanced daily practice itinerary. Over a minimum of four nights, private movement and meditation classes are supported by a personally optimised nutrition plan based on the sattvic diet, focusing on fresh, organic foods rich in prana, or life force.
