Traditional yoga

for the modern body

any gas-forming properties – no broccoli, potato or chickpeas.
I feel lighter already.
Dr Aparna tells me, “I wanted to work at this centre when
(founder) Claude said it would be authentic Ayurveda. That’s
brave of him. He could have done a day spa – not everyone can
handle the treatments we prescribe.”
That night I start a pattern of sleeping for nine hours every
night. I am so relieved. The penny drops for me that I can cure
my poor sleep with better eating habits. I am gearing up for my
detox, two days of herbal enemas, which Dr Ninnu says is the
best detox treatment for anyone, but particularly to balance my
condition because one of the main locations of Vata is the colon
and large intestine. The next day I reap the benefi ts of the
treatment as I wow myself in the morning yoga class with a
suppleness in my body that I haven’t experienced in 20 years.
I can’t stop smiling, and I realise that I have not felt this relaxed
for many years – a feeling I embrace with joy.
As my week comes to a close, I receive advice from the
doctors on post-treatment care, the third and fi nal phase of
Panchakarma called Paschatkarma, or rejuvenation. Seven days
feels too short and I can now see why they recommend at least
10 days here, but am encouraged when Dr Aparna asks me to
follow up with her when I’m back home. I am inspired to keep
up my new program of self-care and now, two weeks later, both
my husband I have broken some bad habits and are sleeping
deeply every night. Thanks ONEWORLD for bringing Ayurveda
to me.
