Starting the day with an early morning beverage and light fruit snack, participants are encouraged to go for an optional seaside walk. This is followed by a 2-hour morning class at the Yoga Pavilion, set deep in Kamalaya's gardens with a commanding view of the ocean and surrounding mountains.

Mid-morning. A buffet-style brunch with breakfast and lunch options.

Early afternoon. Time for the body, mind and spirit to be given over to one of six Traditional massage treatments at the Wellness Center included in the retreat.

Mid-afternoon. Leisure time - walking at the beach or nearby mountains, resting in the steam cavern and various ambient plunge pools, swimming in the lap pool, or exercising in the Shakti Fitness Center, well equipped with state-of-the-art gym equipment. You may choose to spend this time developing your personal yoga practice or attend a scheduled Kamalaya holistic activity. Alternatively, the Library and Study Center is always open and provides internet facilities, informative books on alternative health, psychology and healing; newspapers and a large selection of dvds. Otherwise, indulge yourself with yet another nurturing treatment at the Wellness Center.

Late afternoon. A restorative yoga session allows participants to relax and delve deep within the silence of the being that includes gentle supported asanas, pranayama and meditation.

Evening. An early supper at Kamalaya's Soma restaurant features a variety of dishes from their vegetarian and detox menus with an option of the delicately prepared fish of the day.

Adding a final spark of reflective consciousness, a selection of movies and videos on alternative health and spiritual subjects will be shown before retiring.
