Ananda in the Himalayas Introducing the new and enhanced “Ananda Active” program

Increase your cardiovascular and muscular endurance with a program where fitness and fun comes together. Getting out and getting some fresh air is essential to a progressive workout. And there’s no better way to do this than with Ananda’s guided treks through scenic routes in the Himalayan foothills.

The new Ananda Active program evaluates your current ﬁtness level and identiﬁes treks best suited to both your physical condition and the type of landscape and experience you seek. Outdoor fitness activities also help you understand how your body responds to outdoor terrain and uncontrolled exercise environments. This makes it easier for you to identify your problem areas and weaknesses so that you can begin strengthening them all once you are back in the gym.

The Ananda Active program is designed to combine personal fitness, outdoor treks, yoga, aqua fitness and therapeutic spa experiences to create a complete rejuvenating and strengthening experience. With Ananda’s partnership with Sumaya Dalmia, a leading wellness professional in India and a pioneer in the fitness industry, the fitness experiences within the Active Program are now individualized, consultative and follow a goal orientated fitness approach.

Spa therapies in this program stretch and tone muscles, complementing the outdoor activities and fitness sessions. The holistic experience of the invigorating Salt Scrub assists in the removal of impurities, dull surface cells and improves blood circulation, vitality and elasticity of the skin. Experiences like Abhyanga, Sports Massage, Shower blitz and Ananda Reﬂexology help liquefy toxins and simulate reﬂex points to restore the energy of the body as a whole, improves fitness levels and prevents soreness of limbs.

Personal yoga sessions in this program include asanas that provide balance and activate energies. While Yoga helps to restore and improve the mobility of the body, Pranayama pays attention to the breathing and rectiﬁes faulty patterns of the breath resulting in an enhanced level of vitality and relaxation.

The menu for the Active Package features cuisine rooted in Ayurvedic principles, adapted to international signature dishes and customized for each individual’s needs, supporting the activities and intense training of the overall Active package. Using only seasonal and organic fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and legumes, as well as other carefully selected ingredients, Ananda’s new Active menus deliver hearty and satisfying balance of high protein, healthy fats, fiber, and carbohydrates to fuel the body for optimum performance while training.

Ananda in the Himalayas is a luxury destination spa located in the picturesque foothills of the Himalayas. It is a holistic wellness retreat incorporating the healing principles of the East and the West with a specific focus on Ayurveda, Yoga and healthy cuisine.
