V Integrated Wellness made another push towards becoming the retreat capital of Southeast Asia by hosting an expert-led Yoga, Detox & Rejuvenation workshop last weekend (Sept. 12, 2011).
Directed by healing specialist Gowd Guruji, the two-day program marked the fourth retreat of the year for the region’s first center dedicated to nurturing the soul as much as restoring the mind and body.
Other retreats V Integrated Wellness plans to host over the coming months include:
• Path to Sacred Love (Oct. 14-16), with Singapore-based intimacy guru Rohanna; and
• Energy Field Analysis (Jan. 15-21), with Dr. Johnnie Rogerson, a British scientist and international lecturer on natural therapies and complementary medicine.
“There’s no question it’s a goal of ours to be the leading destination in this part of the world for multi-day health programs”, said Christina Low, head of V Integrated Wellness. “To do that, we’ve got to bring in the best. We’re doing that.”
Born in India, Guruji has learned Healing Mudra, Anga Samudrika, Tantra Yoga, Vedas and Aura Healing, under the tutelage of renowned spiritual leaders and practiced all over the world.
His retreat includes daily yoga sessions, digestive cleanses, a holistic lifestyle assessment, range of massages and a personalized wellness plan to take home.
V Integrated Wellness debuted at The Andaman in April with a slew of features that capitalize on the Luxury Collection Resorts singular setting.
In addition to a hillside spa that blends seamlessly into an ancient rainforest and presents birds-eye views of tranquil Datai Bay, the center offers a:
• Leading-edge fitness facility with windows onto the jungle
• Seaside yoga platform
• Collection of treatment cabanas on the beach
• Salon with a menu of services that incorporates organic products from Intelligent Nutrients and Original & Mineral, 2011 Harpers Bazaar Awards winners
Most people require a stay of at least four nights to complete a range of the brand’s five core offerings – Detox/Yoga, Anti-Aging, Vitality, Deep Relaxation and Couples Programs. All programs include accommodation at The Andaman and meals from the V Healthy Cuisine menu, exemplified by dishes rich in macrobiotic ingredients.
