Yoga and meditation holiday in India

Planet

In this tour you will stay in the Ashrams. An ashram is the name traditionally given to a spiritual hermitage or a Hindu monastery built according to nature. Ashram architecture itself is nature based, it is designed without to be at one with nature and animals. In Ashrams they prefer natural sun light. Giving this kind of natural atmosphere will help people to achieve the levels in Yoga and Meditation.
Most of the Ashrams have almost zero impact on the environment. Normally Ashrams are surrounded by trees to attract birds - these birds making birdsong at morning is very relaxing for Abhyasi (yoga and maditation practitioner). In the bathrooms of Ashrams, they provide a bucket for bath for saving water. Ever Ashram meal is pure vegetarian. The concept of Ashrams itself is to protect the environment because without environment Ashrams can not exist. Plastic is totally banned in Ashrams, they use solar power for electricity, all the things provided to the Abhyasi is limited in amount. By doing this, Ashrams control unnecessary waste.
