Overview

Women are the most gifted creatures created by God to accomplish so many tasks at the same time. A woman can be a homemaker, a housekeeper, a guardian, a caregiver, and a working person at the same time. Rushing through the tedious schedule, meeting deadlines, and checking through the endless to-dos demands a lot of energy and focus. No wonder, many women feel exhausted towards the end of the day and frequently suffer from health issues. What women should understand is that they should equally take care of their health as they are not only the foundation for a happy family but also a cornerstone for a salubrious society.

Our Certified Wellness Workshop For Women gives you an opportunity to introspect your lives, address your overall well-being, and embrace a healthier future. Yoga can serve as a remarkable self-care tool to ensure physical well-being as well as mental health. It helps you lead a stress-free life while managing all the demanding roles you have to play, being a woman. Join our residential Women’s Wellness Workshop program at the Goverdhan Eco Village and embrace Yoga as an empowering tool to inculcate healthy practices into your quotidian lifestyle.
