Thirty days of ayurveda, meditation and yoga in India: are you ready for the ultimate health journey? We invite you to travel with Bezielen to Bhole Baba, a specialist health center in the beautiful surroundings of the Himalayan Mountains. There, you will receive Ayurvedic treatments in a regimen that leads to rest, revitalization and a restored balance between body and mind.
Day 1: We leave from Schiphol Airport in the afternoon for the health trip to India. The goal is a month-long retreat in the Indian village of Chilianaula(Kumaon, Uttaranchal), near the border with Tibet and Nepal. This area is spiritually very interesting and also has numerous beneficial health benefits.
Day 2: Arrive in Delhi. There we take the car towards the Himalayas and head into the mountains to Chilianaula, which is at an altitude of 1,900 meters. We are staying there at Ashram Anandapuri right next to Bhole Baba Ayurvedic Hospital and Research Centre, which specializes in holistic treatment through ayurveda, yoga and meditation.

The hospital also treats poor Indians daily with cataract surgery. With the proceeds from the people of health trip, the center is able to provide another number of people with “new eyes” for free.(Look here for more information and to become a donor)
Day 3 to 24: Start preparation and a few days later the cure begins. In the following three weeks, we continue a process of detoxification, deep cleansing of the organs and revitalization. The daily rhythm is structured at Bhole Baba, with set times for Ayurvedic treatments, yoga, meditation, tea, food and rest. There will also be opportunities in the moments of rest to enjoy the beautiful surroundings, characterized by Himalayan mountain peaks, exuberant nature and millennia-old temples and pilgrimage sites.
After the treatments, there is a rest day.
Day 25: Excursion to the Temple of the Sun (optional)
Day 26 to 29: Stay at the Ashram in Haidakhan and see how people live in the ashram.
We go to India because that is where the origin and most knowledge of Ayurveda lies. Ayurveda is a system of traditional medicine some 5,000 to 6,000 years old. According to Ayurveda, a disease first arises in the mind and manifests in the body only after being repeatedly ignored. Ayurveda states that the body obeys the mind because it is the director of the energies that make the body live. Collectively, these energies are referred to as the soul.
2 times a day you will receive an ayurveda treatment
According to Ayurveda, our natural state of being is one of health, happiness and a sense of inner well-being. This means a body free of toxins, a calm mind, calm and upbeat emotions, waste products processed efficiently and organs functioning normally. However, stress and an unhealthy life lead to accumulation of toxins in our physical and mental systems, which actually worsens the functioning of the body and the risk of (serious) illness is just around the corner.
The Ayurvedic method of treatment consists of determining the patient’s ideal energy distribution at birth(prakriti), finding out the exact energy imbalance(vikriti), where this imbalance came from, and in a gentle program restoring the energy balance. Ayurveda thereby relies on man’s own restorative capacity.
In determining the vikriti, Ayurveda bases itself on the principle of dosha. Doshas are the energies that make up each individual and have different physiological functions in the body. Balance or imbalance of any dosha can manifest itself in different ways. Three doshas are distinguished. Each person has a unique combination of doshas; the most dominant one determines the person’s prakriti.
Ayurvedic treatments are aimed at determining your dosha, identifying and restoring imbalance. The treatment method we will undergo in India is panchakarma.
The method of Panchakarma is as old as Ayurveda and is described in detail in classic Ayurveda books. Even kings, maharajas and priests swore by an annual panchakarma cure for their spiritual growth and balanced health. With the emergence of Western medicine, this traditional healing art came under threat. Until the 1970s, panchakarma was common only in South India, but because of the method’s good results, it attracted the attention of the medical community and panchakarma was reintroduced in Ayurveda schools in the rest of India. Over the past two decades, attention to panchakarma has been increasing outside India as well, thanks to the efforts of health gurus such as Deepak Chopra. Ayurvedic products are available everywhere these days.
Panchakarma is the most widely used form of therapy in Ayurveda for almost all diseases. It is a cleansing and vitalization method aimed at restoring and prolonging physical, mental health and consciousness. This is done by cleansing your body of toxins, bringing balance to your system and improving your metabolism. Panchakarma (literally: five actions) uses five different methods to cleanse the body, each targeting a specific imbalance of the doshas (kapha, vata and pitta):
Panchakarma is preceded by purva karma (preparation), then pradhana karma and it is concluded by paschat karma (the aftercare). In addition, treatments include massages, steam treatments and herbal baths.
Panchakarma can further help you maintain your health structurally by making positive changes in your life. The techniques of panchakarma seem simple, but the effects are powerful and effective. The holistic, natural approach clears the body of toxins at a fundamental level and opens the subtle energy channels. The life energy then released increases vitality and calmness, confidence and well-being.
Books appear about it, and Dutch celebrities venture into it: 28 days of detox. Although the panchakarma treatment strictly follows Ayurvedic insights, you also begin a 28-day period of detox, or detoxification, with this journey. Detox, detoxification or detoxification are all inspired by the panchakarma method.
Prior to the 21-day cure in Chilianaula, we take three days of preparation, during which we let the body get used to the treatment, food and tea. And at the end of the health clinic stay, there is a four-day recovery period.
A period of 28 days is essential for thorough cleansing and revitalization, but more importantly, there is then enough time to learn the dynamics of your own body and to learn something new. After all, the goal of this trip is to improve your health structurally, even after the trip is over.
These days you can go for a spa or retreat anywhere in the world, so why travel all the way to the Himalayas for it? There are several good reasons for this:
Seeing through yoga is Bezielen’s donation project to support the clinic in its work. With each participant in the Health Trip, an amount is automatically set aside to enable cataract surgery: an average of 2 people per traveler can thus be helped against cataracts. As many as 26 people were helped in 2014!
There’s another beautiful thing. The ayurvedic hospital also does a lot for the local community. The eye clinic present specializes in cataract surgery and helps dozens of people get “new eyes” every day. As a participant in the Health Journey, you automatically help support this charity.
We continue to support the clinic through voluntary donations. We undergo a body cleanse ourselves and ensure that all donations go to the right place. This is how we exchange. Check here for more information, or if you would like to contribute.
Included in the travel costs of the 30-day health trip India is a personal intake interview in the Netherlands in the period prior to the trip. The goal is to get acquainted and identify your specific needs and any complaints. Ayurvedic treatments in India will then be tailored to your individual needs. It is important to realize that you will go through several physical, emotional and psychological phases during this intensive “journey within” for a month, and even after that, the effects of the cure will last for some time.
Accompanying the trip are the various teachers of Bezielen such as Linda Koeman, Anjani Makhaisingh,Ria van Weelde. Ria has years of experience coaching individuals and groups. She has accompanied several trips to different countries in Asia and is very familiar with India and panchakarma.
Linda has accompanied groups to India for Bezielen for several years and has done the panchakarma retreat several times. In India, there is opportunity for sharing at a set time during the day. In this joint conversation, questions can be answered and your personal process is supported.
Anjani first met a Guru at a young age, and there the seed was planted. She first learned Dhyana (meditation) and Pranayama (breath), did yoga teacher training and got much more in touch with the physical part of yoga. Through Yoga, and Meditation classes, workshops, courses and yoga teacher training, among others, she enjoys passing on her knowledge and experience to others. Anjani is a CAT therapist and is an Ayurvedic practitioner.
The center in Chilianaula follows a structured daily rhythm, to which we can confidently surrender. There is a licensed physician at the center who supervises during treatment: Dr. S.S. Misra. He has had thorough training in Ayurveda and years of experience in the clinic. Consultations with this doctor are included in the trip.
Should you want to prepare well in advance for this trip, you also have the opportunity to participate in a pre-trip program and guidance before the trip.
