Nirvana Wellbeing Retreat

Feast for the heart, eyes and soul. 🙏🏽
A pause in time allowing the perfect reset my body was yearning for.
Complete with stunning scenery, either clear skies and mountain vistas, or surrounded by the fog, mist and clouds. Either way, super peaceful.
Yoga and meditation practices. Nourishing meals prepared with great thought and care. Abhyanga Massage to complete the blissful feels.
I shall return x 🧘🏽‍♀💚

Well positioned on the high mountains of Beechmont, looking out to the Coast and Mt Warning. The sunrise is incredible, Sonya's cooking is unrivalled, and Shanti and her students will teach you things you don't forget.

A lovely place with welcoming people, delicious food, powerful conversations, and the best relaxation and yoga. Highly recommend it!

NIRVANA WELLBEING RETREAT IS A GEM

I spent a wonderful 7 nights there in early January and what a treat it was. I am new to meditation and yoga but throughly enjoyed all that was on offer and the Ayurvedic lectures were a highlight. Shanti is an absolute treasure.

All the food was outstanding, Sonja does an amazing job in the kitchen and the cooking classes were a fun bonus.

I left feeling so nourished and revitalised and am excited to return.

Lovely reatreat, view is just stunning, deep conversation and beautiful organic food 🙏

My friend and I ended up loving our weekend retreat at Nirvana. Firstly, the property is absolutely peaceful and gorgeous. Shanti and her team were so welcoming, knowledgeable and inspiring. I had a really lovely abhyanga massage with Elena. Sonia cooked the most delicious ayurvedic food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I will definitely go back for another retreat in the future.

What a wonderful weekend. A no frills, health improving weekend. nourished with delicious food, plenty of time for personal contemplation, lovely guided meditations and yoga as well as the possibility of a health consult and massage treatment. I really enjoyed the casually structured nature of the weekend and left with a full heart and belly. I can't recommend this experience enough. As always, you get out of a weekend like this, what you choose, but I couldnt help but thoroughly enjoy myself.

If you're struggling with your health and are open to new ways of truly living, may I suggest Nirvana Wellness Retreat with an Ayuvedic approach with Shanti Gowans Yoga & Meditation

I had an amazing 10 days at the Nirvana Wellness Retreat. Shanti shared so much wisdom and she is truly inspiring. The daily meditation, deep relaxation and yoga are so good for the body, mind and soul. And the food... well let's say I was expecting to be hungry and unsatisfied all the time, but it turned out to be the complete opposite. Sonja, who is in charge of the kitchen, makes the most delicious food I have ever tasted in my entire life, that I ended up always going back for seconds (or thirds), and that while detoxing!
The retreat is located on such a beautiful spot with breathtaking views and sun/moonrises, plenty of space to go sit in silence by yourself or connect with nature by walks in their private rainforest.
I learned so much about Ayurveda and myself and would highly recommend the 10-day-detox retreat to anyone interested in improving their health and learning simple steps you can easily implement in your every day life to further benefit your physical, mental and spiritual health. So grateful I got to experience this and I will definitely be back. 🙏🏻

Renewed from the inside out!

Nirvana hit pause on my busy life and had me searching within to embrace the connection of the mind body and blocks in my digestive system. Through mindfulness practices, Shanti’s wisdom and Sonyas Ayurvedic cooking I was able to not only enjoy foods I haven’t been able to digest for years, but my skin has regenerated with a radiant glow and I’m feeling deep peace within my self.

This land has healing powers through and through. Sink your bare toes into the soil and explore beautiful connections with fellow retreatants. I am thrilled to have begun my journey on the Ayurvedic path of health and wholeness through Nirvana. Excited to return to this beautiful home!

I come to Nirvana Wellness Retreat often, hosted by Shanti & Peter Gowans who also run a Yoga centre & Day spa in Southport on the Gold Coast. Always satisfying, leaving me nourished, revitalised & wanting more. The vegetarian Ayurvedic food is the best I've ever had, freshly cooked & prepared, alot of produce used is from their garden. Yoga, meditation, Yoga nidra, art classes, forest walks, spiritual discussions, movie nights are included in your stay. Rooms are clean & comfortable, the surrounding land, a plateau of vibrant green, with distant views of the Gold Coast & opposing views of Springbrook are glorious. Its beautiful. Guests always feel welcome & loved which keeps us coming back.

Wonderful and renewing experience. I learnt so much about Yoga, meditation ans Ayurveda. The food was also incredible, organic, delicious and vegetarian. Will definitely go back.

I have spe t 7 years struggling with my energy levels and health.I had tried everything. Finally I discovered Shanti. In just 10 days Shanti has reenergised me. I am literally jumping out of my skin and can't wait to start growing my company again.

I come every year for a Detox retreat which is unlike anything you would have experienced. Its Ayuvedic which means Nourishing vegetarian meals, Yoga, Mediation, Cooking classes and much more. Lead by renowned Yogi Shanti Gowans

10 days away in a place filled by pure love energy.
Meditation, yoga, Ayurvedic approach and incredible detox food.
Shanti’s knowledge is wide and wise.

Amazing retreat centre in every way! SHANTI is the real deal when it comes to yoga teachers.

The most relaxing and rejuvenating place I have visit in my life so far..

Love it !
