The ANANDAYA Story

आनन्दाय

Derived from the Sanskrit ānanda (bliss) and āya (path), ANANDAYA embodies the path to bliss and joy — an invitation to discover a new way of living.

ANANDAYA was born from a shared longing for a trusted space in the wellness world — one that felt intentional, elevated, and deeply aligned.

As certified yoga teachers, Reiki healers, and Ayurveda wellness practitioners, we have spent years immersed in spiritual practices and trainings, connecting with teachers and healers across continents who have shaped our journey.

More and more, family, friends, and students, came to us seeking ways to embrace intentional and fulfilling lifestyles. With so much information out there, it’s hard to know where to start and what’s truly worth experiencing. Some of the most transformative retreats we discovered existed quietly within our wellness communities, shared only through word of mouth. We felt the calling for a dedicated platform—one that would bring these hidden gems to light, connecting people with the world’s most exceptional retreats and wellness experiences.

ANANDAYA is our tribute to this longing: a space to guide, inspire, and discover extraordinary retreats while elevating yoga teachers and healers around the world.
