Kerala: Where Nature and Peace Unite

Kerala is known as "God's Own Country" just for that beauty and serenity. The soothing sound of its backwaters, its exceptionally verdant landscape, and comical gold sandy beaches, gives a very calm, peaceful space to disconnect and practice yoga. Yoga in Kerala is literally awakening to the sound of birds chirping in the air, placing our yoga mats on the ground, and practicing yoga in the early morning light, next to gently flowing rivers set amongst the spectacular landscape of nature! 

Natural beauty calms the mind – it does so, not only because of the dissonant mental activity and mental dissonance of the mind and body, but also by the dissonance of our visual perception. Nature within our observation and during our practice of yoga encourages our own ability to breathe more completely, be more focused, and engaged and aware during the practice itself.

The Perfect Blend of Yoga and Ayurveda

What emphasises Kerala's uniqueness and entirety is the relationship with Ayurveda, which is the world's oldest healing tradition. In Kerala, yoga is not merely an activity you do for exercise. Rather, it is a complete lifestyle of yoga, Ayurvedic therapies, herbal treatments, and vegetarian foods that are balanced in their composition. 

 

In a "https://bbiretreat.com/yoga-retreat-kerala/">yoga retreat Kearala, you will discover a marriage of both, as one does yoga in the mornings, and following are Ayurvedic massages and detox therapies to facilitate your body, while also relaxing your mind. The combination of both, which is yoga and Ayurveda, will provide you with a complete healing experience, which lasts well beyond yoga and Ayurveda.

 

 Authentic Teachers and Traditional Practices

In contrast to commercial yoga centers in urban environments, visits to Kerala’s retreats are much more focused on personalization and authenticity. Many yoga teachers here are practitioners of Indian traditions and trained in ashrams or with advanced studied experienced gurus. 

At places like Big Banana Island Retreat, the classes are small and very personal so all students receive individual assistance. You do not merely practice postures; you learn the philosophy behind the postures. By combining asanas, pranayama, and meditation one really has the ability to experience yoga in the purest form here.
