Panchakarma is the best holiday you can take for mind, body and soul. It cleanses the physiology on all levels and thus increases your capacity to be happy. It prevents many diseases by removing the root of disease.
After an initial visit and being very inspired by the special setting of the place on the mesa close to the Rio Grande Gorge and hot springs down at the river, the inner call for a time of purification was confirmed with the trust that this is a special place and the right atmosphere to surrender to a deeper process. Through the first consultation the basic diagnosis evolved and a date was set within a month, and dietary instructions and medicines were given for the preparatory time of purvakarma, and it felt good to be given the trust and responsibilty to fully participate in the treatment. On arrival a few weeks later in the lovingly prepared accommodation the first meal of kichari immediately tuned into the menu-plan for the coming 10 days. The main consultation laid out the treatment-procedures and I appreciated the possibility of learning about the parameters and background and reasons of ensuing steps. A special bonus of the process were daily Ayuryoga-classes early each morning in the meditation room with special emphasis on doshic balancing. The homely atmosphere - and integration into the very kind and caring practitioner's household and serene setting and open horizons on the mesa allowed me to really dive into a deep transformative time under the very caring facilitation of Tizia. Having lived in India for many years, staying with teachers and masters, I was very happy seeing the benefit again of staying in the immediate environment and household of the holistic practitioner and through that have the chance of an all round care-taking, feedback and pragmatic integration of the unfolding steps of the healing process. This had been a very rewarding and deep healing experience with the additional bonus of having met precious fellow human beings and new friends on the path .... a true opening of the heart, with a very grounded outcome in finding a deeper and rejuvenated balance with my body, mind and soul !
