INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION 
Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre (IVAC) is arguably the best health resort in India, based on one singular criterion: the quality of physical treatments. This is the main reason to go to IVAC. At most health resorts, the therapies are usually conducted by one therapist or two therapists maximum. However, at IVAC, some treatments have as many as five or six therapists working on you simultaneously. Therefore, the treatments are thorough and deeply satisfying. A one hour treatment at IVAC is more intensive than a two hour treatment at most other resorts. If you value the quality and effectiveness of treatment above all else, then this resort is for you.

Yoga at Indus Valley

GROUP YOGA

Group yoga sessions are typically conducted four times per day: 7:30 am, 10:30 am, 11:30 am, and 4:30 pm. Each session lasts for 60 minutes. Participation in yoga is recommended, but not mandatory. The group classes typically cater to beginners. For intermediate or advanced yoga, private yoga sessions are recommended. ​

PRIVATE YOGA

Private yoga at IVAC is excellent. It is particularly recommend for people who want to develop a personalized yoga practice and a long-term commitment to yoga, even after returning home. It is also highly advisable for people who wish to sustain the benefits of Ayurvedic treatment. For instance, if your main purpose for coming to IVAC is to relieve or overcome back pain, you are more likely to achieve and sustain that result by practicing yoga frequently, not only during your stay at IVAC but also, and more importantly, after you return home. ​

YOGA NIDRA

The late morning yoga sessions are typically conduction as "Yoga Nidra" sessions, that is, yoga for relaxation, sleep, and ​stress relief. These sessions include meditation, pranayama, guided visualization, and mantra yoga. The mantras are introduced to activate specific chakras or energy pathways in the body. Yoga Nidra does not require one to be fit or flexible or highly active. Yoga Nidra is offered primarily as a path to induce relaxation and mental quietude. It is very common during Yoga Nidra sessions for practitioners to fall asleep, but that is not the purpose or objective. Stress relief is the primary objective.

Getting to Indus Valley

The fastest way to get to Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre (IVAC) is to fly into Mysore Airport (MYQ), but there are very few flights into MYQ. The next best option is to fly into Bangalore (BLR) and drive straight through to IVAC. It will take a minimum of 3.5 hours. There is also a train from Bangalore to Mysore Junction, but the overall journey is likely to take longer than just driving. From BLR, you can hire an Uber, Ola or private taxi.
