Blogs about Mental Balance & De-stress

With Ayurveda on my mind and curiosity in my heart, I board a flight to Mumbai, already bracing myself for the swirl of noise, color, and movement I’ve heard so much about. Over the next three weeks, I’m not just traveling - I’m stepping into a journey through health resorts and Ayurveda retreats across India and Nepal, places that have long drawn seekers of balance and healing. From Mumbai, I drift inland to Pune, then journey south to Kerala, where Ayurveda was born and still feels alive in every detail. Later, I trace my path northward, toward the spiritual pulse of Rishikesh and Haridwar, before finally crossing the border into Nepal. The day before my arrival in Mumbai, I receive my driver’s details via WhatsApp and email. The transfer includes VIP service, a true luxury: from the moment I step off the plane, I’m met at the gate by a guide who steers me quickly through immigration, takes care of my luggage, and leads me straight to the car. My journey has begun!My first stop is Atmantan, a luxury adult-only resort tucked away from Pune’s bustle, surrounded by mountains and overlooking Lake Mulshi. During monsoon season, from June to September, waterfalls cascade down the hillsides, and legend has it that the crystals in this region carry healing powers for anyone nearby. Right now, though, the rain is mostly pouring straight from the sky.
