1 August 2016 to 31 May 2017 INDIVIDUAL WELLNESS IMMERSIONS Ayur • Purify • Rejuvenate Escape to a secret garden estate in India’s rugged Aravalli Hills and reconnect within the rose-pink, Mughal-inspired sanctuary that is Amanbagh. Drawing on India’s remarkable wellness heritage, Amanbagh’s 4- to 21-night Ayurvedic Immersions offer a unique experience of this 5,000-year-old system of preventative medicine. An in-house Ayurvedic physician oversees every detail of your Immersion, whether you seek an educational introduction to Ayurveda and its principles of self-healing and preventative care, or a full three-week programme designed for total rejuvenation and transformation. Ayurveda at Amanbagh Combining the Sanskrit word for ‘life’ with veda meaning ‘science’, Ayurveda encourages balance in all things. Its principles rely on the truism that each of us has a predominant constitutional dosha, determined by our inherent characteristics and body type. An in-depth assessment determines whether you are Vata, Kapha, or Pitta, and this knowledge along with regular consultations with our Ayurvedic physician ensures your Immersion is uniquely geared to your needs. Immersions include daily Ayurvedic treatments, delicious meals and refreshments in line with your dosha requirements, expert yoga/meditation classes, and optional group activities. A number of carefully curated cultural experiences are also included, such as visiting the astonishing Neelkanth Temple and Mansarovar Lake. THE Resort Shaded courtyards, domed cupolas and a potent mystical atmosphere - Amanbagh is an inspirational setting for an immersive Ayurvedic retreat. Quietly glamorous, the property was once the resting ground for the Maharajah of Alwar’s tiger hunts. The modern-day Mughal Palace and lush garden estate – all manicured green lawns, palms and eucalyptus trees – is a deeply cocooning place in which to reconnect. Old World India meets New World style, with the sleek Haveli Suites and Pool Pavilions providing privacy, space and luxurious comfort. The spa is a haven of quiet calm, the grounds a verdant sanctuary with sprawling kitchen gardens. The cheerful faces of Amanbagh’s deep heart, staff members greet you with confident smiles and garlands of sunny marigolds. THE FOOD Unrivalled nutritional support and education lie at the core of each Immersion: Every meal is created with your dosha requirements in mind.
