Holistic retreat: Mind Detox with European Ayurveda®

Escaping the hamster wheel of emails and social media is an ever-present challenge in the fast-moving, results-driven lives we lead. When did you last eat without distraction, savouring every morsel? European Ayurveda® and Mind Detox offer a structure and a sustainable pathway to a more balanced life. It’s about being in the moment; slowing down, with body, mind and spirit in equilibrium, enjoying life and feeling it with all the senses.

The ancient holistic philosophy of life and good health puts us on a path that fits in with everyday life and can be practised by anyone. Mind Detox coach Elisabeth Mauracher, manager of the European Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof in Thiersee, Tyrol – market leader in European Ayurveda® – explains.

Elisabeth Mauracher: In this fast-changing world we risk losing sight of the basics. As expectations rise – ours and those of others – it’s important to recognise our boundaries and needs – and stick to them. Mind Detox and coaching restore our internal balance, teaching us to pay attention to the body, clear the mind and connect with the ‘essence’ – our soul. It’s about feeling sustained, recognising that we are one of life’s gifts. Mind Detox sustainably strengthens mindfulness, awareness and holistic health – and thereby increases happiness and joie de vivre.

Mauracher: Mind Detox helps us recognise and realise our potential.

Mauracher: In my capacity as a Mind Detox coach, I accompany clients on a journey to their true self. They discover what makes them happy, what lies within, and how to live life with confidence and faith. They find contentment by drawing on their creativity and releasing trapped energy in the now.

Another central issue is letting go. To lead a fulfilled, successful life, we need to let go of things that hold us back such as blame, negativity and unhelpful beliefs. The secret of positive receptivity lies in letting go.

Mauracher: Many people don’t realise that they have forgotten how to feel beauty, the key to happiness, until they embark on a coaching session. This consciousness should accompany us throughout life. I receive a lot of positive feedback from people whose new-found awareness helps them improve their lives by doing what is necessary. Clients feel that acknowledging and releasing years of negative beliefs has a ground-breaking effect. One woman told me: ‘The moment this belief became apparent to me was life-changing’. She finally understood and believed in her value. Many people appreciate being given a tool to take away that changes their lives. So yes, I am convinced that coaching helps in the long term.

Mauracher: Of course – they are almost inseparable. Mind Detox and Ayurveda, which has been practised for 5,000 years, base personal fulfilment on good health and act on a physical, mental and spiritual level. Holistic balance is the goal, and that includes spirituality, meditation, mindfulness and personal development. Many guests book a Panchakarma treatment programme to complement Mind Detox coaching and workshops. The ‘queen’ of Ayurvedic treatments helps the body to expel accumulated toxins and rebalance any disturbance in the Doshas, the vital forces that shape our physical, mental and spiritual health. Mind Detox coaching and Ayurvedic treatments are the detox dream-team, complementing each other in a holistic retreat.

Elisabeth Mauracher is manager of the European Ayurveda® Resort Sonnhof, a Yoga teacher, a consultant for energetic Vastu fumigation and soon to be an Ayurvedic psychology consultant. She is committed to Flow Yoga, somatic Yoga, consciousness training and meditation.
