Find Your Zen At These Wellness Retreats In Asia

Get away from stress, fatigue, and monotony

Have you ever had moments when you felt like you're on the brink of getting burnt out? We've all been there, trust us. There's no shame in admitting that even the most energetic and optimistic person can have a decline in positivity as a result of factors such as stress, fatigue, and monotony.

Now, taking simple measures may be enough to ease things up a bit. But it doesn't mean that it will do the trick completely. Taking a slow and mindful route is still the best option to go back to being grounded. Our best recommendation? Go on a wellness retreat. Nothing beats a good ol' getaway that focuses on and follows a methodologic approach when it comes to re-centring your mind, body, and soul. So we say take that leave, book that flight, and find your zen in these wellness retreats you can go to within the region.

Known for its beaches, tropical cafes, and adventure sports like surfing, Bali is also a great destination when it comes to the wellness department. Tucked near Ubud is the COMO Shambala Estate, which is an exclusive resort offering an array of wellness services for its clientele, who include celebrities and other renowned personalities. One the programmes you should not miss out on is the Ayurveda, which is a customisable three to 14-night retreat, including a consultation with an Ayurvedic doctor, hour-long private yoga therapies, and a prescribed diet to boot. If this doesn't get you refreshed and rejuvenated, then we don't know what will.

One of the quickest ways to help relax your senses is to sleep. But what if even that proves to be challenging? Studies show that at least one out of seven people experiences insomnia. Aside from this, due to the prevalence of social media and the internet, people also tend to stay up late scrolling through their screens rather than talking a good ol' batch of zzzzs. Thankfully, Kamalaya in Koh Samui offers a specialised retreat that focuses on sleep enhancement and therapy. It combines treatments that incorporate traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, Shirodhara (another form of Ayurveda) and more to ensure continuous and increased sleep quality even after the retreat. You can choose among five, seven, and nine days to experience this therapeutic and preventive program.
