How Ulpotha works for You
There is a holy trinity of three main elements to Ulpotha: location, Ayurveda, and yoga.
Firstly, it is a location of extreme natural beauty. A warm, embracing jungle community surrounded by a lake with silky, soft water to bathe and float in. A place of harmony, without the harshness of electric lights, phone distractions, or hurried agendas.
Ayurveda and yoga both emerged from the same ancient Vedic traditions thousands of years ago. Yoga is as much a core therapeutic tool of Ayurveda as living and eating wholesome, locally picked organic food daily, in the soft embrace of Ulpotha.
Ayurveda treatments run quietly in the background in Ulpotha. They are an optional extra cost to your holiday price and can be booked for anything from a 3-day taster to a more immersive Panchakarma course lasting 3 weeks or more.
The treatments last up to two hours per day and are generally taken after the morning yoga session or before the evening session.
Yoga, on the other hand, is included in the holiday cost. World-renowned Yoga teachers, from Hatha flow to Iyengar, Vinyasa, and more, visit for two-week retreats and the dynamic morning classes and more gentle evening sessions amplify your Ayurvedic healing both on and off the mat.
For a naturally life-changing experience and Ayurvedic healing, we recommend you add the Ayurveda treatments to your stay, but we have made them intentionally optional, as to quote our residential Ayurveda Doctor, Dr Srilal: “Merely being in Ulpotha and practising yoga is 90% of Ayurvedic healing. The balance 10% comes from the Ayurveda treatments.”
