Monsoon Manor

Respecting time-honoured methods.

Find a piece of ‘God’s Own Country’, Kerala, right in the heart of Bengaluru at the AyurvedaGram Heritage Wellness Centre—an Ayurveda and yoga destination rooted in oldworld traditions. Sitting on a seven-acre bed of herbal gardens, this traditional home is donned in the signature nalukettu (traditional homestead) way, and has vintage wooden cottages from 18th century that have come here all the way from Kerala. The centre has both, day-long rituals and monthlong stays with tailored therapies to offer. But indulging in their Monsoon Panchkarma—a 14-day cleansing ritual during monsoon—is the best bet. The three-step treatment helps in eliminating toxins from the body with medicated oils, and introducing a routine of healthy diet, yoga and meditation practices, into your daily life.
