Expedition Program
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Northern India Adventure is not just a journey that allows you to see the most important landmarks, but also a unique opportunity to explore oneself deeply through experiences gained during the expedition and the tools offered by yoga and Ayurveda.
Our goal is to showcase the richness and diversity of India. We plan to cover approximately 2700 km to visit regions characterized by different climates, architecture, religious variations, and cultures.
To enable participants to authentically experience India, we consciously encourage immersing in the crowd through walks on bustling streets and using public transportation such as auto-rickshaws, metro, or trains. We believe that it is through daily interaction with the scents, colors, and inhabitants of India that we learn the most about ourselves.
For our expedition to be conscious, participants receive travel journals and tasks that help understand the fundamental principles of yoga and Ayurveda, as well as integrate the experiences gained. Support during the journey is provided by the organizer, Ayurveda therapist, and academic and classical yoga teacher – Patrycja Sadowska as well XX.
New Delhi & Agra
VATA | ISLAM
Our journey will commence in the vibrant capital of India – New Delhi. It is here, amid the hustle and bustle and intense stimuli, that our senses will immerse themselves for the first time in the whirlwind of new shapes, scents, and colors.
To fully experience the city’s atmosphere, we will explore some of the most important districts and landmarks. When we feel that we’ve had our fill of impressions, we will set off to Agra to see what was previously only known to us from pictures – one of the seven wonders of the world, the Taj Mahal!
During our stay in New Delhi and Agra, we will delve into the principles of Ayurveda, and we will also learn more about Vata dosha and its influence on our body and mind.
Varanasi
PITTA | HINDUISM
Our next destination will be the ancient city of Varanasi. Visiting the magical religious cradle of Hinduism, we will delve deeper into its history, customs, and culture.
The journey to Varanasi will also be an expedition towards intensifying experiences, all in pursuit of a complete transformation. It is here that we will encounter the element of fire as a key aspect of the passage ceremony. Observing Hindu funeral rituals, we will contemplate themes of death and rebirth.
In Varanasi, we will also learn more about the Ayurvedic Pitta Dosha and its impact on our well-being.
Bodh Gaya
KAPHA | BUDDHISM
Our next stop will be the pilgrimage destination of Buddhists – Bodh Gaya. Here, we will catch our breath, find grounding, and immerse ourselves in the tranquility that Buddhism carries. During our stay in this sacred place, we will trace the footsteps of Buddha, learning about the culture and customs derived from his teachings.
The time spent in Bodh Gaya is a moment when we will experience India from a new perspective. After traversing the bustling city, we will transition to rural landscapes, observing the simplicity of village life.
In Bodh Gaya, we will also discover the nourishing impact of the Ayurvedic Kapha Dosha on the body and learn how to maintain its balance through the tools provided by yoga and Ayurveda.
Rishikesh
INTEGRATION | YOGA
Our final destination will be the yoga capital situated on the banks of the Ganges at the foothills of the Himalayas. During our stay in Rishikesh, we will dedicate time to the process of integrating the gathered experiences.
We will visit world-renowned yoga ashrams, participate in sunrise farewell ceremonies, and embark on a mountain excursion to greet the sun rising over the Himalayas.
In Rishikesh, we will also undergo the final evaluation of our Ayurvedic constitutions during a meeting with an Ayurvedic doctor. It is here that we will experience a relaxing Ayurvedic massage and learn about the general recommendations of Ayurveda and yoga for our well-being.
