What Are The Benefits Of Yoga Retreat?

By: Nimba - June 16, 2021

In the fast-paced lives of the 21st century, we are held hostage by our daily routine, getting up in the morning, rushing to work, spending eight to nine hours working and coming back home. Later, we have no energy for productive work, and this endless cycle goes on, and we feel stuck in a rut. 

Since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, this monotony of life has shrunk further, trapping us in our homes, erasing the distinction between work and home since now they are the same. It is hard not to get frustrated and wish for a change.

Psychological side-effects of the new normal lifestyle-

Conquer Every Musculoskeletal Problem with Nimba

Conquer Every Musculoskeletal Problem with Nimba

By: Nimba - November 20, 2020

Merriam Webster defines ergonomics as “an applied science concerned with designing and arranging things people use so that the people and things interact most efficiently and safely.” It is also known as biotechnology, human engineering, human factors.

The development of a civilisation is not a coincidence. When you pause to look at your surroundings, you will notice that every little man-made item is designed to fit the needs of a person perfectly. This ranges from the size of a cell phone, the handle of a mug, to the structure of a room. Every item crafted is backed by the formation as well as capabilities of the human body.

Therefore, when the term ergonomics is in the discussion, the mere use of a product is not enough, for it deals with the entire procedure of designing and arranging products, systems and places in a way that makes it the best fit for a human being who uses it.

However, sadly, no matter how much we perfect the science of Ergonomics, as human beings, we tend to be reckless when it comes to our postures and the ability to adjust according to the ergonomic designs. Frequent repetitive motion tasks, awkward postures, forceful movements, stress, and poor setups are some of the main ergonomic problems. This leads to issues in the body such as discomfort, pain and swelling in joints, cramps, numbness, reduced range of motion in shoulders, neck and back, amongst several other problems. Eventually, this creates musculoskeletal disorders that are difficult to cure over the long term.

The musculoskeletal system creates a magnificent framework of the body. It enables the body to move around freely as well as holds all the organs in its right place. Ergonomic problems can cause intense injuries to the musculoskeletal system which causes several complications.

At Nimba, your wellbeing is our utmost priority. Therefore, we provide numerous Naturopathy therapies like Abhyangam treatment, Udhvartan, Deep Tissue Massage and Reflexology which helps in curing the aforementioned musculoskeletal issues, especially arthritis.

The purpose of these therapies is multi-fold. Every problem is studied in detail and each of our therapy has a healing procedure specifically dedicated to it. For example, an ayurvedic diet, massages and yogasanas are essential in curing osteoarthritis, whereas sciatica demands hot/cold ice packs, acupuncture, potli massage and reflexology to heal completely.

Here, we responsibly take your hand through the entire procedure so you can leave our Nature Cure Village feeling healthy, happy, and healed.

We welcome you to a safe haven where you can begin a healthy life, free of any ergonomic complications. We welcome you to Nimba.

Located, in Ahmedabad, Baliyasan, Gujarat, this place has been dominating the meditation and yoga retreats for quite some time now, and, also in 2019, has taken large strides towards the direction of being not only India’s one of the best but, India’s best.

Nimba: The Premium Naturopathy and Wellness Centre

Nimba is all about improving your health by changing your lifestyle. If this statement is twisted a bit, it means, that one way or the other Nimba has amazing health benefits. Metaphorically, if Nimba is a tree, then, it, bestows perfect, complete, and imperishable health to everyone. To ensure this, Nimba follows major steps one of them is Yoga and Meditation.

We all know the power of Nature is undefined and infinite. This is what Nimba uses to ensure such amazing health benefits to its clients. Physical, psychological, and spiritual health are some of the key aspects at which one looks up to. This is something you won’t find anywhere else. Our body is capable of healing itself by maintaining the effective balance of the mind, the body, and the soul.

Yoga means addition – the addition of energy, strength, and beauty to body, mind, and soul!

Yoga and Meditation can restore the Natural Equilibrium of the human body and soul. If the natural balance deviates from the normal, the equilibrium is not maintained, and hence a disturbed equilibrium causes health complications and disorders in the human body. Distinctive synergism under modern sciences, with the help of professional guidance, helps you get back to your normal state.

Yoga and meditation retreats are spread all over India. Then what does Nimba do to make it different and the best meditation and yoga retreat in 2023? Let us discuss them in detail.

Also, these are some of the rare techniques which are taught at Nimba under the guidance of experts that benefit you greatly both in the body and in the soul. Let’s first take a dig at some of the best Yoga and meditation therapy programs at Nimba:

1. Kapalbhati

Kapalbhati Pranayam is an efficient and effective Yogic Practice that helps a person to be oxygenated. It is a type of breathing exercise that helps a person to get over ailments, especially physical, mental, and psychological ones over a period of time.

3. Meditation

One performs the art of meditation for more than one reason. It has plenty of benefits. It reduces your stress level, increases focus, and slows down the aging process. In short, it promotes emotional well-being and reduces anxiety levels. Mindful meditation is very beneficial, and one should practice it for the overall well-being of the mind and soul.

4. Shankhaprakshalana

It is very important to detoxify your body. This is what Shankhaprakshalana does to you. It involves drinking water in such a yogic regime that cleans the digestive tract and hence detoxifies oneself.

5. Therapeutic yoga

6. Yog Nidra

It is also called yogic sleep. It involves consciousness between the sleeping and walking stages with guided meditation. There has been evidence depicting that yog nidra has helped individuals to be relieved from stress.

7. Shatkarmas

If we break the above word into two, Shat means six and Karmas means tasks. So, it means six tasks. This involves individuals performing six different techniques under the same for the benefit of the mind, body, and soul.

8. Basti yoga

We have spoken about the importance of detoxifying the human body. While Shankaprakshalana detoxifies you by cleaning the digestive tract, Basti Yoga intends to detoxify you by cleaning the lower abdomen, especially the colon.

9. Tratak

Tratak is a form of meditation that involves staring at a single point, black dot, or candle flame. It promotes various things. It is believed to empower the third eye and even psychic abilities.

10. Power yoga

Also known as Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, is practiced for the sake of improving physical capabilities like strength and stamina in the body. The style includes energetic, synchronized breathing with movements. It is a modern-day form of Indian classical yoga.

11. Aquatic yoga

Again, this is an adaptation of classical yoga. As the name suggests, this technique involves performing yoga in water. This reduces friction, low impact workout for your muscles, and also relaxes the mind.

This is why, Nimba proves to be one of the best yoga and meditation retreats, especially in India because not only does it provide a comprehensive system with multiple options, but it also understands the value of time and mental fitness.

Conclusion:

Moreover, in our daily busy lives, prioritizing our health becomes difficult, after work and other responsibilities. The best way is to opt for beautiful yoga and meditation retreats where you get needed time off from your busy lives and focus on your well-being first.
