VIRAAM
A Women's Wellness Retreat
at Porvorim, Goa
Move. Connect. Reflect.
26th - 29th Sept 2024
VIRAAM, which means “to halt”, is a yoga and mental health retreat designed for WOMEN who are invested in holistic health and wellness.
Hosted by Mehak, a women’s health coach and yoga teacher, and Meera, a trauma-informed psychotherapist and trainer, our serene retreat focuses on pausing to move, connect and reflect.
​
Oftentimes, our hectic life as women with so many things to do doesn’t allow us to take a much-needed step back that will enable us to rest and recover. VIRAAM is the perfect space for you to take that pause and be yourself in the support of a group of women.
​
Experience a unique blend of wellness practices like asana, journaling, guided imagery, mindfulness, somatic techniques, meditation, pranayama and art-based therapy at a beautiful private villa at Porvorim, GOA.
We invite you to pause and find stillness amidst the rush of everyday life while enjoying nourishing vegetarian meals, inspiring sessions and plenty of free time to relax and explore.
