I Feel Good –
Sign by Jwala Gamper
Each and every one of our guests at the Sonnhof
will bask in the energy and love that pervades our
facility. Only if we feel truly good about ourselves
will we be able to do good things for others. We see
ourselves as the helping hands that open the door
through which this change can be ushered in. ‘I Feel
Good’ is our essential message. Its positive impact
works on the frequency of our thoughts and emotions. It opens the way to pure being and stands for
the beginning of the change we are looking for –
whether we know it or not.

2 | Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof
Centre for
European Ayurveda
In one of the most stunning locations of the
Alps, on the high plateau of the Thiersee Valley
at an altitude of 900 metres, a place of unique
harmony and wellbeing awaits you. Nestled
within this natural paradise, at the Ayurveda
Resort Sonnhof we have dedicated ourselves
to the Far Eastern philosophy of Ayurveda,
gently integrating it into European culture with
the utmost care. Here, at the heart of the
Tyrolean Alps, guests may experience the
power of the holistic Ayurvedic philosophy
without having to travel all to the way to the
Indian subcontinent where Ayurveda
originates. Our Sonnhof team of experts and
our specialists from India, Dr (ind) Gaurav
Sharma and Chef de Cuisine Balvinder Walia,
will make sure that you are looked after with
authentic competence and professionalism,
as well as promoting a deeper understanding
between eastern and western culture.
Tirol meets India
In June 2012, the Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof was
reopened after comprehensive extension and
renovation measures. The design concept of
the facility is entirely based on the motto
‘Tirol meets India’: local woods and highquality materials create a perfect synergy with
Indian colour schemes and creative elements
from the Indian subcontinent. The entire resort
was cleansed according to a traditional
ceremony and fumigated according to the
Vastu teachings to allow divine energy, also
called Prana, to flow freely, thus creating the
basis for health and wellbeing. In our chosen
field, we are true pioneers in Austrian health
tourism – we have raised the bar considerably
with our holistic approach and are prepared
to live up to the most stringent international
standards.
Yours truly,
the Mauracher family

Accommodation
30 rooms & suites
• ‘Sonnhof’ single room
• ‘Tirol’ standard double room
• ‘OM Spirit’ superior double room
• ‘Tirol’ junior suite
• ‘Alpienne’ junior suite
• ‘Harmonie’ Imperial suite
• ‘VEDA Spirit’ suite
Public Rooms &
Restaurants
• Spirit lounge
Dedicated to the planets and the elements,
the Spirit lounge is a retreat that presents itself
in a different light on a daily basis, addressing
different body chakras. This is where our guests
sample Ayurvedic teas at the tea bar and
delight in the all-pervading sense of healing
harmony. The oak floor made from old barn
wood creates a pleasing, down-to-earth
contrast to the joyful multi-coloured Indian
theme.
• Anapurna buffet
This is where breakfast and afternoon tea are
served.
• Buddha’s Place
The restaurant also has a solid oak floor and
follows on to the Spirit lounge, thus creating a
unity with the Indra Garden, the conservatory
dedicated to the Indian god of war, thunder
and rain.
AyurvedaCentre
In Ayurvedic philosophy, the body is the
temple that houses our spirit. To live up to this
ideal, we have created spaces in the
AyurvedaCentre that are solely dedicated to
pampering our guests and their bodies. This is
where all the senses are soothed in a relaxed,
positive atmosphere and gently stimulated
through soothing sounds and the encounter
with natural elements. The names of Indian
gods were chosen for the treatment rooms –
for instance, that of Lakshmi, the goddess of
beauty.
Our three themed saunas also follow Ayurvedic
categories: the Kapha colour therapy room
(earth/water), the Pitta herbal clay sauna (fire/
water) and the Vata gemstone salt water
therapy room (air/ether). Before and after the
treatment, the Swasthya peace room (literally:
‘self-dependence’) provides the perfect setting
for rest and leisure. The Vishuddha (literally:
‘source of energy’) cleansing bath aims for
purification and beauty. The jewel in the crown
of the AyurvedaCentre is the panoramic indoor
pool with direct access to the garden and the
find your energy fountain dedicated to restoring
your strength. The OM meditation room and the
Shaktis (‘power’) fitness room invite you to
experience an intense encounter with the
energies of your body and spirit.

Overview
of the Resort
Garden of the five elements
on more than 1,000 sqm
The Sonnhof itself is a place of spiritual strength.
Similar to acupunctural points along the human
body, such places of spiritual strength are special
locations where strong forces concentrate.
The ‘Shiva Shakti’ energy garden, designed
according to the ancient Indian teachings of
Vastu and based on the five elements, boasts
several such places where energy flows in a
particularly effective manner. Anyone who enters
these places of strength consciously and
respectfully will be rewarded by their intense
energy:
• The door to the path of the heart – the rose
garden: The roses that arch across this
section stand for unconditional love. This
spot supports the dissolution of pain and
widens the consciousness of love.
• Ganesha (elephant god) and Buddha:
We must pass the statues of Ganesha, son of
Shiva & Parvati, and of Buddha in order to
make our way into our very own heaven in
the energy garden.
• Shakti fire place:
This is where the female aspects of creation
make themselves felt in all their intensity. It is
a place of transformation that is dedicated
to a sense of letting go and to meditation.
The fire in the copper cauldron creates the
perfect setting for intense Yoga experiences.
• Chakra places:
The seven Chakra places are arranged
around the fire place in ascending order,
from the Root all the way to the Lotus
Chakra. When we enter these places, we
touch upon the energy of the chakras,
causing it to flow freely.
• Place of blissfulness:
This place of strength unites what is meant
to be together. The awareness of divine
perfection in creation brings about a sense
of bliss. Against the stunning backdrop of the
Wilder Kaiser mountain range, inner peace
will come to you during a meditation session
in this high Alpine setting.
• Place of Buddha and of compassion:
This central point of the Energy Garden gives
the gift of peace and helps us find our sense
of inner harmony.
Regional herb garden
Especially when it comes to food, the Sonnhof
lives up to its motto ‘Tirol meets India’. Regional
herbs are lovingly grown in our herb garden
and used for seasoning Ayurvedic dishes in our
kitchen.
Bird table
Ayurvedic teachings provide space for all
of god’s creatures. While observing the birds
feeding at the bird table, guests can let their
thoughts roam freely and enjoy the magnificent
natural setting accompanied by the sound of
birdsong.
Biotope
Naturally designed garden pond where guests
may experience water as the source of all life
and restore their inner peace.
Places for quiet meditation
Throughout the Garden of Elements, generously
spaced resting areas and Yoga sites invite you
to enjoy a sense of regeneration.
Underground car park
with 40 spaces – included in the room rate!

Three Pillars
for Your Health
Ayurveda is so much more than just a healing
method or a culinary trend – it is a self-contained
path through life. The Ayurvedic way of life
means embracing new happiness, improving
your health and developing a profound
understanding of yourself, your personal
development and inner peace. In the Ayurvedic
view of the world, body and nature correspond.
Health is a state of dynamic balance between
the body’s elements; illness means that these
elements are in disharmony. Based on the
three pillars ‘Ayurvedic Nutrition’, ‘Diagnosis
& Treatment’ and ‘Yoga’, we can counteract
such imbalances using a holistic approach
towards our health. This means that we do not
just look at the symptoms of illnesses, but also
their roots, thus paving the way for an effective
method to restore harmony between body,
soul and spirit.

The hectic rush, fast pace and stress that
characterise today’s world constitute the main
challenges for our society and leave many
of us feeling overburdened and weakened.
The consequences are modern-day lifestyle
diseases such as burnout, metabolic disorders,
allergies and food intolerances, cardiovascular
diseases, migraines, etc.
At the Sonnhof, we offer our guests the
opportunity of a medically supervised
Ayurveda break that is perfectly in tune with
western lifestyle requirements. Illnesses are not
just treated on the surface – rather, the
balance of the Doshas is restored using
targeted treatments and cures. In-depth
regeneration, new energy and inner balance
can thus become the new companions for
your life.

& Philosophy
Ayur Veda – the Science of Life …
To strengthen what is healthy and to gently
counteract disorders at the same time forms
the basis of all Ayurvedic treatments. At the
centre is always the person in all his or her
uniqueness. Based on a comprehensive
diagnosis by Ayurveda consultant Dr (ind)
Sharma, your individual treatment and
nutrition programme will be compiled
according to your constitution and supervised
by our experienced team.
» Contrary to efforts centred
around fighting symptoms,
Ayurvedic medicine works with
a holistic concept that treats
the roots of imbalances in a
sustainable manner. «
Ayurveda differentiates between three types
of constitution and allocates different
treatment methods to each type. These
regulatory principles are also referred to as the
three ‘Doshas’ and determine our
physical, spiritual and mental characteristics.
If the Doshas are in harmony with each other,
we are healthy and happy in the eyes of
Ayurvedic medicine.
VATA. People who are slim and light and
tend to be constantly on the move are the
Vata type. They are quick thinkers, but also
tend to forget things quickly and are prone to
anxious reactions.
PITTA.
Pitta types have an average figure,
are agile and good at decision-making. They
are born leaders who, however, easily lose their
temper and are prone to angry reactions.
KAPHA. Kapha types are corpulent and
take things calmly. Such people keep their
head in stressful situations, are not prone to
hectic reactions and have a tendency towards
idleness. Their outstanding characteristics are
patience, inner strength and gentleness.
Your individual constitution type results from
the ratio between these three Doshas in your
body and is at the centre of your nutritional
and treatment plan. The goal is to balance
these three forces, thus achieving a higher
degree of health, performance and happiness.
» A tip for you « To determine the
interplay of your Doshas, send us an e-mail
to request a questionnaire or download it
on our homepage.

Ayurvedic Nutrition

European Ayurvedic cuisine
as a culinary brand
With ‘European Ayurvedic cuisine’, we have
taken the principles of Indian healing and
amended them to suit western taste buds, thus
creating our very own culinary brand. It takes
into account the principles and recipes of
Ayurveda for restoring the balance of the life
energies while also pleasing European palates
through the use of first-class products, locally
sourced from the markets and farms in the
region. In addition to classic Indian herbs such
as coriander, ginger, cardamom or cinnamon,
European herbs such as thyme, basil or fennel
are also given the opportunity to unfold their
healing powers.
» The combination of the
individual spices, the way they
work and blend into each other
has a balancing and cleansing
effect and also stimulates the
metabolism. «
We all have different dietary requirements.
For this reason, Ayurvedic cuisine is based on
the three constitution types of Vata, Pitta and
Kapha. Depending on your individual treatment
plan, we will recommend the right menu for
your constitution type.
Our international
dishes are prepared
by Chef de Cuisine
Gordon Hildebrandt
and his team.
Your day starts …
with a generous breakfast buffet combining
regional and Ayurvedic specialities.
At lunchtime …
we invite you to sample our Pitta buffet, served
from 12 noon until 1.30pm and containing
soups, colourful salads, appetisers and desserts.
In the afternoon …
let us treat you to a Vata teatime, complete
with tea ceremony and healthy delicacies.
In the evening …
we offer you a choice between three different
menus: Pancha-Karma & detox menu,
Ayurvedic Rejuvenation menu and the classic
Sonnhof menu.
Guests following the Pancha-Karma-Cure
plan and adhere to an Ayurvedic diet will be
given detailed instructions by Dr (ind) Sharma
as to which meals they should consume and
in what form. Guests who suffer from impaired
health or otherwise feel out of sorts will
receive medical treatment using precious
healing plants.
All meals are included in our full board and
are served in the ‘Buddha’s Place’ restaurant
and in Indra’s Garden.
Our meals are prepared using mostly
regionally sourced, natural organic
products. Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof | 11
Diagnosis & Treatment
Authentic competence &
well-founded professionalism
The Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof offers a
comprehensive programme ranging from the
short AyurDetox break all the way to intensive
detoxification programmes, Rejuvenation
weeks and Rasayana cures. The queen of
Ayurvedic treatments, however, is
‘Pancha-Karma’, a two-part cure consisting of
a preparatory and main part. Our Ayurvedic
physician, Dr (ind) Sharma, will assist you with
advice and guidance throughout your stay,
supported by his assistant Christina Mauracher.
Ayurvedic beauty treatments following the
‘Pharmos Natur® Green Luxury’ method
complement our comprehensive treatment
range.
Christina Mauracher
Head of the AyurvedaCentre
& Assistant to
Dr (ind) Sharma
• Master of Science in Ayurvedic
Medicine
Lisa Mauracher
• Trained Yoga instructor
• Consultant for energetic Vastu fumigation
Pulse diagnosis conducted
by Dr (ind) Sharma
• Fully trained Ayurveda physician
(Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and
Surgery)
The pulse diagnosis is not just an essential
component, but also the starting point for
many of our treatments. At the Ayurveda
Resort Sonnhof, this highly sophisticated
diagnostic method is applied solely by Dr
(ind) Sharma. His many years' experience has
taught him how to interpret the pulse on both
wrists to arrive at important information on the
overall energetic condition of the body. To do
this, he applies his index, middle and ring
fingers to the inside of your wrist, feeling your
pulse by applying different amounts of pressure.
In addition to the pulse diagnosis, Dr (ind)
Sharma will ask detailed questions on your
nutrition and digestion, sleeping habits and
general lifestyle context. All this information
combined will enable him to categorise you as
a Vata, Pitta or Kapha constitution type and to
draw up an individual treatment and nutrition
programme based on this categorisation.
Dr (ind) Sharma is happy to speak to our
guests in English.

Yoga
The Journey towards My Inner Self.
Gentle exercise for the body – relaxation and
regeneration for the spirit. Yoga can support
you on your way towards inner peace and
balance and sustainable health.
Our exercise programmes are characterised
by competence and individual variety. Yoga is
a holistic philosophy and stands for much more
than an effective physical training programme.
Just like Ayurveda, Yoga takes the psyche into
account, helping to ease symptoms such as
insomnia or migraine just as much as mood
swings or anxiety. Yoga exercises, in conjunction
with outdoor physical exercise, are an integral
part of the daily routines of all Sonnhof
treatment plans.
We also offer special Yoga packages
several times a year. For details,
see pages 34/35.
What does Yoga mean?
Literally translated, Yoga means ‘union’ or
‘joining together’. Figuratively speaking, you
are being joined to a way of life and the unity
of all things.
» Yoga brings about an
incredibly strong feeling of
joyfulness, inner peace and
beauty. «
Yoga is more
The essential point of Yoga is to create a
balance between body and soul, using
concentration, contemplation and meditation.
We are talking about targeted practice using
the correct movements and their respective
techniques for breathing in and out.
What Yoga can do for you
• Develop your own strength
• Help with weight loss – either overall weight
loss or targeted weight loss in certain areas
of your body
• Help you improve your figure
• Ease symptoms such as migraine, insomnia,
headaches, asthma
• Help you be more open with yourself and
others
• Help you accept yourself
• Promote the unity between body, soul and
spirit
» Yoga can help prevent
diseases, stimulates blood
circulation, stabilises the
circulatory system and
promotes overall health. «
The importance of
breathing – Pranayama
Breathing should be deep and calm. Only
the link between physical movement and
breathing enables the body to release tension.
Negative thoughts, stressful situations and
unpleasant feelings make breathing irregular
and shallow. Today our thoughts are constantly
jumping from one thing to another; the Indians
would say like monkeys in a tree. As a result it
is often truly difficult to remain focussed – we
are distracted by people, noises, images and
smells. This constant dialogue takes place
without us even noticing and only becomes
evident when we have the peace and time
to make a conscious effort at collecting our
thoughts.

Pancha-Karma –
the Queen among
Ayurvedic Treatments
Cleanse & Detoxify
Start Afresh & Continue to Grow
Encounter your true self –
release your inner glow.
The Pancha-Karma-Cure is unique in its
healing and preventative health benefits.
Pancha-Karma – the ‘five treatments’ –
encompasses all five pillars of Ayurvedic
cleansing and is the most effective method
for in-depth detoxification, both on a physical
and spiritual level. Like no other detoxification
treatment, it removes toxins and waste
products from the body, focusing not just on
water-soluble waste, but also on the much
more important fat-soluble toxins. This means
that the body's self-healing powers are once
again able to work at full capacity, thus
restoring our ability to perform even at an
advanced age.
It increases physical and spiritual wellbeing,
promotes spiritual clarity, has anti-aging
properties, strengthens the immune system and
helps prevent disease. Its vital energy helps
restore your inner balance.
All Pancha-Karma-Cures start with a medical
examination, including a pulse diagnosis,
performed by Dr (ind) Sharma and are
completed in two steps: the preparatory
treatment creates the basis for the
detoxification process, while the main
treatment helps unfold its in-depth
harmonising effects, supported by the
unrivalled soothing properties of Ayurvedic
massages. Heat therapy, hot water drinking
cures, herbal medicine as well as Yoga,
Qi Gong and meditation are all parts of the
Pancha-Karma-Cure that is available as a
7-, 10-, 14- or 21-day package.
The treatment is particularly recommended
for chronic disorders such as rheumatism,
gastrointestinal disorders, metabolic disorders,
insomnia, headaches, migraines, vegetative
or psychosomatic disorders, unspecific pain or
allergies.
» What you should know «
For our Pancha-Karma-Cures, we use
exclusively high-quality herbal oil:
• Pure, carefully selected ingredients
• Prepared according to traditional recipes
• Professionally monitored production

of muscles and the musculoskeletal system as a
whole. The triggers prevent harmonious
movements, causing pain and poor posture or

transport and nerve system within the muscle.
Trigger point massage is especially recommended
to provide relief from chronic muscle tension and
cramps.
