GRIFFITH RETREATS - Join us in India
Join Griffith Consulting's Founder & CEO, Steve Griffith and meditation teacher Tegan Wallis in India, November 2023 to experience a transformational, life-changing journey. Further your healing and meditation routine with our Advanced Meditation and Ayurvedic Rejuvenation Retreat!
Have you ever wondered how nice it would be to spend more time meditating and learning deeper knowledge in the field of Ancient Vedic Wisdom?
Well now is your chance!
We would like to personally invite you to join us in India for a meditation adventure.
10 days of joy, adventure, nourishing Ayurvedic treatments, long meditations, daily yoga, spiritual pilgrimages, wisdom talks and lots of fun!
In today's world, taking time to completely rest, rejuvenate and slow down has never been more essential for our ongoing success in the world.
Before Covid, the team at Griffith held exclusive retreats in India and Bali every year.
We are very excited to once again offer our 2023 program and share with you not only the amazing experience of an Advanced Meditation Course and an Ayurvedic Healing Program but to show you one of the most beautiful parts of India, Rishikesh - located at the foot of the Himalayas where the Ganges first emerges from the Himalayan mountains.
Rishikesh is a an ancient town immersed in thousands of years of meditation teaching. It is also a place made famous in the '60s by my teacher, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, because of his meditation centre on the banks of the Ganges. This was where the Beatles lived, meditated and created the 'White Album' along with many musical luminaries of that era. - Donovan, The Beach Boys, etc.
It's an incredibly fascinating place to have our first post-covid course because of its deep spiritual and meditation history.
On this retreat, you will not only experience deep rest and rejuvenation but have lots of fun visiting and experiencing the ashrams and ancient temples, witnessing the ceremonies and just enjoying this very fascinating place.
Our advanced programs are very special as they combine deep knowledge of the tradition of Vedic texts that outline profund understanding of the human mind and techniques to develop our inner self to live our life with higher levels of self-awareness.
But this is not simply a knowledge course but it's a deep experience combining more meditation and yoga to really de-stress the body, called 'Rounding', which will very quickly remove deep-rooted stress.
When you add in Ayurveda, which we include during this program by experiencing ayurvedic massages and specially prescribed treatments, you gain a deep experience on all levels of mind, body, heart and spirit.
If you have enjoyed learning to meditate in any of our programs and want to know more knowledge and have the opportunity to dive deeply, this is the most wonderful program to bring all this together. Knowledge combined with deeper rest through yoga, meditation and Ayurveda is a profound experience.
So please join us. We look forward very much to you being with us.
With Warmth,
Steve Griffith
THE PROGRAM
The advanced meditation program is a simple, natural, effortless set of procedures that accelerate the personal growth gained from your meditation technique.
You will be introduced to ‘Rounding’ – a series of postures, pranayama and transcending that allows the body to move to a deep state of rest. We will then begin to journey deeper inward and enhance these advanced techniques with Vedic Wisdom.
It will enrich what you are already developing through your twice daily practice of transcending.
As well as learning these techniques, we will have time to explore Rishikesh. Rishikesh is located in the foothills of the Himalays in northern India, it is known as The Gateway to the Garhwal Himalays.
It is where Maharishi Mahesh Yogi established the first Ashram on the river banks of the Ganges and where the Beatles came and spent time in Rishikesh. It is known as the yoga capital of the world.
The city is known as one of the holiest places in India set on the mighty Ganges river. It’s a place where seekers of the spiritual enlightenment travel as they seek inner purity and true transformation.
Our days will be spent practising gentle yoga, meditating, enjoying the surrounding nature and taking dips in the pristine Ganges. We will enjoying wholesome vegetarian meals, experience healing Ayurvedic treatments like abhyanga massage and shirodhara, and soak up wisdom via a series of talks on Vedic thought. Guest speakers will share their expertise on all aspects of Vedic wisdom.

PAST GUESTS EXPERIENCE
“This experience was one of those ‘once in a lifetime’ ones that I will be forever grateful that I had. I have spent decades studying Eastern and in particular Vedic knowledge, and Steve’s delivery is absolutely exquisite. I found the entire Retreat to be wonderful, and in particular the people were all incredible and have become long term friends. This is a testament to Steve’s natural, humble and very witty approach to life, that attracts likeminded people. The depth of study, knowledge and practice was remarkable and I have found everything I learnt so useful for my daily life back in Australia. I would highly recommend this to anyone wishing to take their meditation practice to the next level. For anyone wanting to engage with life 200% and desiring a complete re-boot on how they live their life, to upgrade to one of purpose, authenticity and creativity, this is the experience for them.”
