10 days away in a place filled by pure love energy. Meditation, yoga, Ayurvedic approach and incredible detox food. Shanti’s knowledge is wide and wise.

I recently did an 8 day retreat here. It was a beautiful environment to do a retreat, so relaxing, with sessions of meditation, yoga, teachings on Ayurveda, discussions on yoga philosophy, beautiful vegetarian food and walks in the rain forest. There was a lovely group of people there as well, all keen to hear Shanti's wisdom and do the practices. Shanti is so accepting of us all, patient and kind, and teaches in a way that is very succinct. And it's not just what Shanti says, but how she lives also that is so inspiring and such a good example to me of how I'd like to live my life. I still feel the benefits of this retreat, as though the teachings are still going on, insights and clarity are still coming through to me. It was wonderful and I hope I can go back for another retreat very soon.

I’ve just spent 8 incredible days at Nirvana Wellbeing Retreat, and words are simply not enough to capture the depth of this experience. Shanti, Sonja, Sue, and the wonderful team of helpers created a beautifully welcoming and nurturing space where I felt truly supported to unwind, heal, and reconnect with myself. I am filled with gratitude. This retreat was the perfect gift—a chance to pause the busyness of everyday life and reflect on what truly matters to me. I deeply appreciated the meaningful conversations with like-minded people, which were both uplifting and thought-provoking. I’m also leaving motivated to recreate the delicious recipes we learned and to use my kitchen appliances to their full potential, making nourishing meals part of my daily routine. My cup is overflowing, my spirit renewed, and my heart full. Thank you and Namaste.

I’ve been on a 10 days ayurvedic detox retreat at Nirvana and highly recommend the experience. The place itself is amazing, with a panoramic view of the Scenic Rim, the people are the most loving and the vegetarian food is absolutely delicious! I am very thankful for Shanti Yogas community for this experience!

Simply beautiful and peaceful and much to appreciate food and healthy environment.

Wonderful retreat and location in stunning surrounds. Shanti’s health and meditation retreat specialises in traditional mindfulness meditation and the science of Ayurveda, which truly assists one in connecting with wholeness of being. Shanti is a genuine authentic yoga facilitator and host, and her team are friendly and warm. Sonja’s carefully prepared meals are divine and the quality of her cooking sets a benchmark. Highly recommend for mind body and being.

A lovely place with welcoming people, delicious food, powerful conversations, and the best relaxation and yoga. Highly recommend it!

Well positioned on the high mountains of Beechmont, looking out to the Coast and Mt Warning. The sunrise is incredible, Sonya's cooking is unrivalled, and Shanti and her students will teach you things you don't forget.

Lovely retreat, view is just stunning, deep conversation and beautiful organic food

Feast for the heart, eyes and soul. A pause in time allowing the perfect reset my body was yearning for. Complete with stunning scenery, either clear skies and mountain vistas, or surrounded by the fog, mist and clouds. Either way, super peaceful. Yoga and meditation practices. Nourishing meals prepared with great thought and care. Abhyanga Massage to complete the blissful feels. I shall return x

Nirvana hit pause on my busy life and had me searching within to embrace the connection of the mind body and blocks in my digestive system. Through mindfulness practices, Shanti’s wisdom and Sonyas Ayurvedic cooking I was able to not only enjoy foods I haven’t been able to digest for years, but my skin has regenerated with a radiant glow and I’m feeling deep peace within my self. This land has healing powers through and through. Sink your bare toes into the soil and explore beautiful connections with fellow retreatants. I am thrilled to have begun my journey on the Ayurvedic path of health and wholeness through Nirvana. Excited to return to this beautiful home!

Hi Shanti, just want to thank you for a wonderful time I had during the Ayurveda detox retreat. I really enjoyed the healing process and just having time out to be with myself in great company and to recharge and heal on a deeper level. 

Recently I attended Shanti's Detox Retreat and found it most beneficial. Since returning home, I've noticed I have much more energy throughout the day and can achieve considerably more without effort. My food tastes more flavoursome. I wake earlier in the morning, alive and ready to start the day. The food at the retreat was delicious and generous in quantity. We ate very well, but somehow my weight dropped?? I can therefore highly recommend the retreat to all who are contemplating it.

Thank you Shanti and all the attendees at the weekend retreat. Great conversations only matched by wonderful teachings and healing yoga and meditation... and I haven't even mentioned the food! A warm, friendly environment at what feels like the top of the world. I am already looking forward to my next retreat. Namaste.

Wonderful and renewing experience. I learnt so much about Yoga, meditation and Ayurveda. The food was also incredible, organic, delicious and vegetarian. Will definitely go back.

I have spent 7 years struggling with my energy levels and health. I had tried everything. Finally I discovered Shanti. In just 10 days Shanti has reenergised me. I am literally jumping out of my skin and can't wait to start growing my company again.

Shanti shared so much wisdom and she is truly inspiring. The daily meditation, deep relaxation and yoga are so good for the body, mind and soul. And the food... well let's say I was expecting to be hungry and unsatisfied all the time, but it turned out to be the complete opposite. Sonja, who is in charge of the kitchen, makes the most delicious food I have ever tasted in my entire life, that I ended up always going back for seconds (or thirds), and that while detoxing! The retreat is located on such a beautiful spot with breathtaking views and sun/moonrises, plenty of space to go sit in silence by yourself or connect with nature by walks in their private rainforest. I learned so much about Ayurveda and myself and would highly recommend the 10-day-detox retreat to anyone interested in improving their health and learning simple steps you can easily implement in your every day life to further benefit your physical, mental and spiritual health. So grateful I got to experience this and I will definitely be back.
