At the heart of all our ceremony circles lies the magnificent mandala crafted with love and care by our team 🌺

The circular pattern is adorned with fresh flowers and petals, its circular patterns signifying the eternal flow of Time. Mandalas symbolize unity, harmony, and the interconnectedness of all things. In Sanskrit, mandala translates to “sacred center” or “circle”. For thousands of years, spiritual traditions across the world, from Buddhism and Hinduism in the East to the Maya and Aztec civilizations in the Americas, have used mandalas as tools for meditation, self-reflection and spiritual practice.

In our Retreat ceremonies, we honor this ancient practice and use it as a tool to facilitate the inward journey of our guests. By bringing in different elements of various spiritual traditions we create a safe and supportive environment for the growth and blooming of our participants.

If you appreciated the behind the scene love and energy poured into the stunning mandalas, hit like🩷 and stay tuned for more sharings!

If you’re pulled by the transformative power of these sacred rituals, join us at our upcoming Autumn Sunshine Retreat- November 8th to 17th. (Link in bio for more info on retreats!)

Water is life, flowing all around us and within us 💧

At Sen Wellness Sanctuary, this sacred element surrounds us—from the waves gently meeting the shore, to the still waters of the backwater lagoon, the peaceful lily pond, and the quiet grace of floating flowers. In many spiritual traditions, water represents purification, renewal, and the flow of energy, reminding us of our deep connection to nature and our reliance on this vital force for survival.

In Ayurveda, water is a key element that nurtures, cools, and balances our bodies and minds. It soothes fiery energy, supports digestion, and keeps us feeling calm and refreshed. Essential for balancing the Kapha and Pitta doshas, water helps us stay grounded and in flow with nature. Just like a refreshing dip, it brings harmony and renewal from the inside out.

As we honour water, we honour the life it sustains and the spiritual balance it brings to our journey ✨

The power of a community is something we hold sacred in our group retreats. The unique light of each individual, a powerful energetic beacon, contributes to the healing magic of the space and the moment.

During our Signature retreats, a big part of the magic happens when we join together in Ritual and Ceremony.

🩵During the 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐲 we allow the space and time for everyone to set an intention for the 10 day journey ahead.

🩷In the 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭-𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐲, we gratefully allow various forms of medicine to gently and lovingly open our very centre, the heart. We do this by integrating cacao medicine, breathwork, chanting, prayer, meditation and other ancient technologies. When we work with our heart energy, we invite love, empathy, compassion, and positivity right into our lives.

🧡Our 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐲 allows us to reflect and integrate all that was packed into and experienced during the 10 day retreat. A valuable opportunity to reflect and process all that deep healing taking place on all the levels of the Self.

Our Signature retreats merge subtle yet powerful healing modalities that will sync your system right back with Mother Earth.

Ayurveda teaches us that true wellness begins with understanding our unique body type, or Dosha. By embracing the wisdom of Ayurveda, we can nurture our bodies, minds, and spirits with the right foods, practices, and self-care routines. This ancient knowledge helps us live healthier, more vibrant lives, attuned to our individual needs and the changing seasons.

At Sen Wellness Sanctuary, we’re passionate about sharing these insights with you. Follow us for more Ayurvedic wisdom and wellness tips to support your journey. Enjoy a 15% discount on our Bespoke Ayurveda Retreats in beautiful Sri Lanka—designed to nourish your wellbeing from the inside out! 🌿✨

Vata (Air & Space) 🌬️
Creative, energetic, and quick-thinking, Vata types thrive on movement and change. However, they can also be prone to feeling anxious, scattered, and cold. To balance, Vatas benefit from grounding routines, warmth, and nourishing foods.

Pitta (Fire & Water) 🔥
Driven, focused, and passionate, Pitta types are natural leaders with strong digestion and sharp intellects. When imbalanced, they may experience irritability and inflammation. Cooling activities, relaxation, and a balanced diet help soothe Pitta’s fiery nature.

Kapha (Earth & Water) 🌿
Calm, steady, and nurturing, Kapha types have a strong sense of stability and endurance. When out of balance, they can feel lethargic and overly attached. To keep Kapha in check, energizing movement, lighter foods, and mental stimulation are key.

Ayurveda Tips for Seasonal Transitions 🍃🌸

In Ayurveda, the transition of the seasons is a sacred time to realign with the changing energies. Here at the Sen Wellness Sanctuary in Sri Lanka, we embrace this shift with mindful practices that honor the body’s needs, encouraging you to do the same wherever you are.

The key is to enjoy seasonal foods wherever you are. Foods cultivated in the summer help to cool down the body, while foods cultivated in autumn/winter increase heat. In the heat of summer, our bodies crave foods that cool and soothe. Watermelon 🍉 is a perfect example of a fruit that helps to balance the fiery energy of the season. As the rains begin to fall, we shift towards warming foods like mango 🥭 which increase internal heat and prepare us for the cooler months ahead.

Ayurvedic tips for the heat…

✅ Enjoy Cold drinks, yogurt, ice cream, eggplant, pumpkin, spinach, cow’s milk, curd, and eggs.

❎ Avoid: pineapple, tomato, tuna, shrimp, crab, cuttlefish, and beef (these can be enjoyed in moderation during the cold season).

Ayurvedic tips for the cold…

✅ Enjoy: warming foods, practices like hot water steam inhalation, gentle exercise to maintain internal heat and spending time in nature

❎ Avoid: head showers in the evening or at night

As the weather cools, our routines should reflect the need for warmth and balance. Whether you’re soaking in the last rays of summer or welcoming the chill, let these Ayurvedic principles guide you through the seasonal shift with grace and ease. 🌿✨

A great way to tune your system to the seasons and nature is by joining our tailor made retreats, uniquely crafted for your wellbeing. Enjoy 15% in September and October for any of our bespoke retreats.

At Sen Wellness Sanctuary, our spaces are designed to blend seamlessly with the beauty of nature, creating a deep sense of connection to the world around us.

The eco-conscious architecture is a bespoke design by the Brazilian-American architect, Adriana Arbex, while the exterior and interior showcases the artistry of local craftsmen and Sri Lankan design.

The main building and cabanas feature a circular design encouraging a continuous flow of Prana throughout the space.

Food is medicine.

At the Sanctuary, we serve authentic, home-style Sri Lankan meals that are predominantly plant-based and wheat-free - a menu, developed in collaboration with health and environment-conscious chefs.

Ingredients are:
🌱 Seasonal
🌱Organic
🌱Locally sourced from our own biodynamic farm in the rainforest or from local markets that share our ethos on sustainable food production

While the Vata-Pitta-Kapha diet is commonly practised at Ayurvedic retreat centres, its full benefits only unfold during longer stays (6 months +) and instead, can be excessively restricting for shorter stays. We believe in a more flexible approach that aligns with the broader concepts of Ayurveda and is supported by empirical research.

Every element of our culinary approach is guided by intention.

🌱 We provide two wholesome main meals during the day, followed by a lighter dinner to allow the digestive system to rest.
🌱 For each meal, we gather at the communal table to share and connect.
🌱 We have created a nurturing space where healthy habits can be established and carried long after your stay.

What is Abhyanga?

Abhyanga, derived from the Sanskrit words abhi (towards or into) and anga (limb or movement), is Ayurvedic massage. It involves a specific sequence of strokes including long, sweeping movements using copious amounts of warm, herbal oils tailored to the individual’s dosha.

It is a form of therapy known as snehna, which translates to ‘to oil’ as well as ‘to love’ or ‘to nurture’. To cover the body in herbal oil is to envelop the body in love. In Ayurveda, abhyanga is one of the dinacharya (daily practices) for maintaining health and wellness.

Benefits include:
* Calming the nervous system and reducing stress
* Improving blood circulation
* Promoting lymphatic drainage and detoxification
* Improving sleep patterns
* Promoting softer, stronger and more supple skin
* Lowering blood pressure
* Supporting musculoskeletal system
* Relieving muscular and joint pain and aches
* Stimulating the internal organs of the body
