About Kerala

Kerala, a state on India's tropical Malabar Coast, boasts nearly 600 km of Arabian Sea shoreline. It is renowned for its palm-lined beaches and intricate network of backwaters. Inland, the Western Ghats support lush tea, coffee, and spice plantations, as well as diverse wildlife. National parks like Eravikulam and Periyar, along with sanctuaries such as Wayanad, are home to elephants, langur monkeys, and tigers, The region is also known for its old temples, mosques, churches, which coexist in religious harmony and as well as top quality Ayurveda treatments, yoga and meditation packages.

Often referred to as 'God's Own Country,' Kerala is a stunning tropical destination where visitors come to relax and appreciate its natural beauty. It is also known for its friendly and welcoming people, high literacy rate—the highest in India—and its reputation as one of the cleanest states in the country.

Kerala's cuisine is a vibrant culinary tradition that features a variety of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, often centered around rice. Fresh fish, poultry, and red meat are common, and dishes are typically flavored with an array of spices including chilies, curry leaves, coconut, mustard seeds, turmeric, tamarind, and asafoetida.

Known as the "Land of Spices," Kerala has a rich history of trading spices with Europe and many ancient civilizations, with historical records dating back to the Sumerians in 3000 BCE.

Kerala Ayurveda and Yoga

Ayurveda considers everything in the universe, including human beings, to be made of five elements—Air, Water, Fire, Earth and Ether. Together these elements are known as the Pancha-mahabhutas. Each of these elements is associated with different bodily functions and personality traits. In the organic body these five elements are found as the three doshas (tridosha)—vatha, pitta and kapha. Each of the doshas is a different combination of the five elements. An imbalance of the three doshas would result in both physical and mental ailments.

Ayurveda does not treat the disease but restores the harmony of the body so that the body itself can fight it. The treatments, diets and routines prescribed in Ayurveda are to balance the tridosha. Each individual would have a unique combination of these doshas, meaning such there is no medicine or procedure suited to everyone. What might be harmful to one type of body constitution might be beneficial or even essential to another. If you are planning a sightseeing tour to Kerala, I highly recommend experiencing at least one week of Ayurveda treatments before you leave the state. These treatments will purify your mind, body, and soul.

Kerala Yoga and Meditation

In Yoga, the five elements or pancha bhutas – earth, water, fire, air and space – are seen as the basis of all creation, including the physical body.

Kerala is particularly known for a tantric form of yoga, which is a combination of Hatha yoga and a martial art form called Kalaripayattu. This practice helps boost your spiritual and physical powers.

If you are seeking inner peace and spirituality, you can stay in one of the many good yoga centres in Kerala and engage in some serious yoga and meditation amidst serene surroundings. The result will be a healthy and happy mind and body.
