← All Mysore retreatsAbout this selection
Pondicherry's Sri Aurobindo Ashram and Auroville intentional community have been drawing yoga and meditation practitioners since the 1920s — a uniquely Franco-Indian spiritual culture. Ayurveda in Pondicherry is not the spa-Ayurveda of European wellness hotels. The practitioners here follow clinical protocols: pulse diagnosis, constitution assessment, and treatment programmes designed around your specific needs. December is one of Pondicherry's best months for retreat — Puducherry's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in December tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
