You will be surrounded by nature away from the chaos and busy everyday life and feel calm as soon as you enter the school premises.Atharv Yogshala is a beautiful place for nature lovers and perfect for meditation and finding your true self.
At Atharv yogshala we follow the ashram principals An ashram is a place of temporary retreat where great effort is undertaken to accelerate the transformation process towards self-realization. It is a place of spiritual retreat and growth where you come to know yourself.
An ashram fosters and encourages various types of discipline without which hard work and effort are not possible. It also teaches us how to live with simplicity, rather than indulging in the passing whims of fashion or social trends. The very atmosphere of the ashram environment is infused with spiritual ideals for us to reflect on and absorb.
Stay at Atharv Yogshala
Rishikesh - The small city in Uttarakhand, is undoubtedly the prime choice for yoga lovers, from all over the world. It is also known as the "World's Capital of Yoga." The spiritual atmosphere of the city makes it more vibrant and divine. It is a yoga-centric city. All fully furnished rooms are spacious and well-appointed.
You will find every modern facility in a secure and clean environment at our premises. They are cleaned regularly and have a cabinet and attached bathroom for your convenience. Also, there is a big dining hall where all students dine together and share their thoughts. Free Wi-Fi and laundry facilities are also available. We have the supportive environment and calm atmosphere needed for spiritual growth.
Yogic Meals at Atharv Yogshala
Atharv Yogshala offers three times a day freshly cooked meals, herbal tea and filtered drinking water. Atharv Yogshala Sattvic diet primarily consumes nutritious foods, including fresh produce and nuts, which is why this diet may lead to a number of health benefits. However, it’s quite restrictive, and many healthy foods are off-limits.
Living a healthy lifestyle is the expectation of everyone but very few obey the rule of living a healthy life. Eating Satvic food will give you good health, good nutrition and improves digestion. Sattvic food is very natural since it includes all fresh and medicinal ingredients. The diet is so natural that you don’t feel heavy or lethargic after eating and gives a peaceful feeling so here in Atharv Yogshala yoga practitioners slowly start incorporating Satvic food in theirs diet and learn to cook varieties of tasty dishes because this is going to show wonderful results in your body starting from good health, good energy boost and positive state of mind.
