Awaken in Kerala – A Vedic Meditation & Ayurvedic Rejuvenation Retreat in India
5-15 October 2025
Retreat to the birthplace of Vedic wisdom. Reconnect with the natural rhythm of life. Join me for an intimate 11 day transformative spiritual experience, connecting you back to your soul.
Nestled along the lush, tropical coastline of Kerala, India, the birthplace of Ayurveda, our immersive Vedic Meditation Retreat invites you to step away from the pace of modern life and into a space of deep stillness, rest, and renewal, secluded by palm trees, beside the Arabian Sea.
This is more than a retreat—it’s a return to your most vibrant self.
What Awaits You
Over 7 rejuvenating days, you’ll immerse in the timeless practice of Vedic Meditation, paired with authentic Ayurvedic treatments, nourishing cuisine, and the tranquility of Kerala’s coastal beauty. Surrounded by coconut palms, lotus ponds, and the soothing sounds of nature, you’ll experience profound restoration—mentally, physically, and spiritually.
Our days begin with sunrise on the beach, and group meditation and yoga, followed by a delicious Ayurvedic breakfast, and then individualised daily Ayurvedic treatments including Abhyanga, Shirodhara, herbal steam, and more, individual doctors consultations and a delicious Ayurvedic lunch.
You’ll enjoy plenty of free time to stroll or swim at the beach and explore the surrounding areas, cruise along the backwaters by boat, and to rest and relax by the infinity pool and luxuriant gardens. We gather for group meditation in the evenings and knowledge talks, and delicious Ayurvedic chef prepared dinners.
Ayurvedic Body Therapies: Rejuvenation Through Ritual
In the sacred land of Ayurveda, you’ll receive consultation by the Ayurvedic doctors, Vaidyas, who will provide a personalised plan of daily body treatments, diet and herbs, based on your unique dosha, your mind-body constitution from an Ayurvedic perspective. These ancient practices restore balance, enhance vitality, and leave you feeling deeply refreshed from the inside out.
Ayurvedic Cuisine: Nourishment for Mind, Body and Soul
Enjoy fresh, locally sourced vegetarian meals prepared by our Ayurvedic chefs in accordance with your mind and body type requirements.
Every dish is tailored for you and designed to nourish, rebalance, and rejuvenate your entire system. You’ll enjoy three seasonal vegetarian meals daily, herbal infusions and teas, fresh coconut water and Ayurvedic cooking and food knowledge insights.
The Setting: Luscious Kerala
Our retreat takes place at a peaceful water front eco-resort nestled on the Arabian Sea. You’ll enjoy a private deluxe cottage, surrounded by palm tress and luxuriant gardens, and a short stroll to the infinity pool or the ocean.
Vedic Meditation and Rounding
Vedic Meditation is a gentle, mantra-based technique designed to dissolve accumulated stress quickly, and awaken your natural clarity, creativity, and vitality.
Whether you’re new to meditation or an experienced meditator, this retreat will deepen your practice, your understanding and experience. You’ll enjoy twice daily group meditations, yoga, and breathwork and Vedic and Ayurvedic knowledge sessions.

What They Say
“To say that being on retreat with Kate in India in 2014 changed my life is an understatement. It changed the way I look at the world and the way I interact with it. I feel like a fresh, new person with a better understanding of what life is about. I finally have confidence in myself again and I’m actually becoming the person I always wished I could be. It isn’t just India that changes your life it’s all that this retreat encompasses. It was the greatest experience and I would sign up again in a heartbeat” – Adelaide Mourd
“The idea with this kind of treatment is that it provides an opportunity for a mass release of stress, tension, toxins & fatigue. A release that allows you to launch back into life. And as I write this and reflect on the past 12 months… boy did we launch. Oh… and never. got. sick. once. All in all I’ve felt better, more relaxed, more confident, more at ease in the world, more creative, more loved up, and more alive than ever. Our motivation to learn about meditation came from a pretty dark time, but where we are now is proof that it’s possible to make a choice to have a different experience of life. I have no doubt on this earth that I’ve taken leaps and bounds in my own health & wellness over the past 2 years, accelerated by our time in India with Kate in 2016” – Nicole Lark – read her and her husband’s full experience here.
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is an ancient Indian preventative medicine and health care system which extends back more than 5,000 years. It’s about maintaining health and balance by balancing the “doshas” – vata, pitta and kapha. According to Ayurveda we’re all made up of all three, but tend to have one that dominates, and when that gets out of balance we experience health issues. The idea is that we can treat those issues naturally to regain balance, with an Ayurvedic diet, Vedic meditation, Ayurvedic body treatments and Ayurvedic herbal supplements, but more importantly address our health before issues arise.
This retreat is a mindfully curated, ancient detoxification treatment program. A process of physical purification of the body, flushing out toxins in order to restore the body to a state of balance, by balancing the doshas, and restoration of the mind. Ayurvedic doctors conduct personal health and wellbeing assessments which includes taking a pulse diagnosis to determine which doshas are out of balance and then prepare a personally designed treatment plan. These treatments include daily oil massages and an array of treatments prescribed specifically for your body’s needs, herbal medication and specialised meals – all designed to rapidly flush out accumulated toxins.
This retreat will cleanse and detoxify the mind and body, by removing accumulated toxins from the nervous system, and provide an opportunity to deeply rest and rejuvenate – and experience your most vital self!
