India’s newest Ayurvedic boutique resort, Mekosha offers Charukesi Ramadurai a holistic healing journey with in-suite spas, organic food and plenty of massages.
For the first time ever, I celebrated World Environment Day with a significant gesture—and no, I don’t mean sharing Whatsapp messages about a green, clean planet or outraging over global warming on Twitter. I planted a sapling with my own hands, a tiny chikoo plant that will one day bear luscious tropical fruit.
At Mekosha, they take their commitment to the environment and to the welfare of fellow humans seriously. This new wellness resort near Thiruvananthapuram dubs itself an Ayurveda Spasuites Retreat and, of course, I was instantly intrigued by that idea. What it means is that the guest rooms at Mekosha come with a small spa area, where basic therapies (not involving traditional Ayurveda rituals) are performed.
In the land where Ayurveda was born, and still survives as one of the key attractions for visitors, Mekosha offers bespoke experiences and treatments. Founder Ram Wasan says, “Mekosha is derived from the Sanskrit word kosha, meaning sheath, a covering of the atman, or self according to Vedanta philosophy.”
