Anand Yatra: A Transformative Holistic Wellness Retreat by Sanatan Wellness at Parmarth Niketan, Rishikesh

Mumbai, 5th November: The serene banks of the Ganga and the sacred grounds of Parmarth Niketan Ashram came alive with the spirit of inner awakening as Sanatan Wellness hosted its four-day “Anand Yatra” Holistic Wellness Retreat, inspired by the timeless theme of Sat–Chit–Anand — Existence, Consciousness, and Bliss.

The retreat was envisioned and guided by Dr. Dinesh Shahra, renowned thought leader, philanthropist, and founder of Sanatan Wellness Company, whose mission is to revive holistic well-being through India’s spiritual and cultural wisdom.

Participants were guided through an immersive journey by an expert panel of facilitators —

Anubhuti Goswami, Sound Healing & Music Therapist;

Emon Goswami, Handpan Specialist;

Yogi Sakha, Holistic Health & Life Coach; and

Mayank, Yoga Teacher.

Each day unfolded as a deep exploration of Sat-Chit-Anand through diverse modalities of yoga, meditation, breathwork, sound healing, satsang, and conscious community sharing. The experience was further sanctified by the blessings of Pujya Chidanand Saraswati Ji and Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati Ji, and enriched with Ganga Aarti, havan, bhajan, and sattvik food — embodying the essence of India’s living spiritual heritage.

“It was a lifetime experience — a pause from the hustle and bustle of city life,” shared one participant. “I reconnected with my inner stillness and discovered how true joy arises from harmony within and around”, one of the attendees said.

The Anand Yatra Retreat offered participants not just rejuvenation but a profound reminder that wellness is a sacred alignment of body, mind, and spirit — a return to one’s natural state of bliss.
