Thirteen days for your body to flow again

At the southern tip of India lies Kerala, which Indians affectionately call God's Own Country: coconut palms, rivers that wind through the entire state, beaches, and a landscape full of medicinal plants and spices. It's there, in an authentic Ayurvedic village, that the heart of this journey unfolds.

Panchakarma is Ayurveda's great purification program, the Indian science of longevity: massages with medicinal oils, herbal steam baths, meditation, and meals designed just for you, with at least two therapy sessions a day for two weeks.

Throughout the program, the Ayurvedic masters also teach you to prepare classic herbal formulas and to recognize each plant by its potency, taste, color and fragrance.

Ayurveda+ LifeScan

Ancient wisdom, scientific precision

While the vaidyas read your pulse and assess your doshas, modern tests show the state of your heart, bones, organs and metabolism. Together, the two perspectives give you a complete picture of your health.

Prevention

Early markers show up before symptoms do, while your body is being cleansed by Panchakarma.

High-standard diagnostics

MRI, CT angiography and comprehensive blood work at leading medical centers in India.

Priority and convenience

Tests scheduled within a few days, private transportation, and a review of your results with internationally trained doctors.

The tests included are determined by the partner clinic's medical team and the diagnostic centers, based on each person's clinical needs.

From those who've been

India stays inside you

Beyond getting to know and experience such an intense, unique culture with the help of someone who knows where to look, we got to live Ayurveda.

Rodrigo Nascimento

Being in India was, without a doubt, one of the biggest events of my life. After this trip, I was never the same person again.

Marciane Pagliari

The best trip of my life. India stays inside you. It's a dive deep into yourself, in search of the very best in you.

Good to know

Before you leave for India

Do I need to know Ayurveda or yoga to join?

No. The program is for anyone, whether you're a therapist, a practitioner, or someone who has never heard of Ayurveda. The village team adapts the therapies to you.

I've never been to India. Will I have support?

Yes, from start to finish: flights, visa, vaccines, currency, insurance, packing, and even check-in for your flight home. You won't have to figure anything out on your own.

Do I need a visa?

Yes, U.S. citizens need a visa for India. It's an e-Visa you apply for online, and we guide you through every step during preparation.

Will language be a barrier?

No. You travel as a group, with me and a support team, and the LifeScan exams have support in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Is the North India extension included?

It's an optional extension, booked separately by those who want to keep traveling after Kerala. In our conversation, I'll walk you through the itinerary and terms for both parts.

A travel companion who has been there and back

I first went to India in 2003, and I've returned every year since. I've led more than twenty groups and hundreds of people along the paths of this country I love so much, and every trip confirms that no place in the world shakes up the way we see life quite like it.

Simply witnessing everyday life in India sets something in a new order inside us. That's the encounter I take you to, with time, respect and attention.

Close your eyes and listen to your heart. If the sacred call speaks up, your time has come.
