SwaSwara: An Eco-Conscious Wellness Retreat in India for Yoga, Creative Food and Vitamin Sea. - The Shooting Star

Image
  As wellness tourism in India grows, so does the hunt for an environmentally conscious wellness retreat in India. Raising the bar for wellness resorts in India, SwaSwara – on the shores of Om Beach in Karnataka – is not just ideal for yoga, meditation, hiking and detoxing, but also offers sustainable, mindful luxury . Over several months of seeking refuge from the pandemic in Goa, I gradually made peace with the indefinite pause on my travelling life. Bit by bit, I explored more of my own backyard, discovering secret waterfalls, incredible hikes, timeless Goan villages and still pristine parts of the otherwise Instagrammed coast. I was pretty unsure of how I felt about longer distance travel, but when CGH Earth reached out to me with an invitation to drive down 4 hours to Swa S wara – a wellness retreat in India naturally set up for social distancing, on the shores of Om Beach in Gokarna, I got tempted. Masked up, hands constantly sanitized and windows open

Place to visit around Lonavala - Lohagad, Rajmachi Point, Goosebumps point and waterfalls - By Siddhartha Joshi

Image
 Lohagad, Rajmachi Point and Goosebumps point - these are the three amazing places we visited on a wet monsoon day when we were in Lonavala recently. Our day started at Chandralok villa and ended with a surprise waterfall near Bhaja caves .   Rajmachi Point The first palace we visited is the pretty well known Rajmachi Point about half an hour's drive from Lonavala up on the hill. It's generally covered in mist during the monsoon and that's exactly how we found it too.  It's a great place to see the old highway from a bird's eye view and you can also take some great pictures here too. Goosebump point  As the name suggests, this place is meant to give you goosebumps and it does manage to do that especially when you climb up on the rickety stairs. The day was so misty that we could barely even see the highway on the two sides. In fact there's a train line close by too but it was barely visible that morning. Finally it was the numerous monkeys who push
