EXPERIENCE THE HEALING POWER OF NATURE AT PRAKRITI SHAKTI BY CGH EARTH.
Karen Anand
NATURE CURES

Wellness is a term that is used a great deal nowadays along with the words “sustainability” and “natural” and so on. We all get the picture, but very few centres/clinics/resorts actually practice what they preach. After experiencing Ayurvedic resorts and clinics, mountain retreats and many spas, I decided to try Naturopathy and sought refuge with answers at Prakriti Shakti, a naturopathy clinic cum resort in the hills of Pachalimedu between Kottayam and the spice plantations of Thekkady in central Kerala. I did not read too much before going and frankly, the website, though beautifully put together, does not give you much insight into what they have in store for you. Trust your intuition and the CGH parent company behind this which is now making a visible foray into wellness. Stepping slightly aside from the heritage hotels they have perfected over the years in south India, their wellness vertical is something to look out for.

Prakriti opened in 2018 with lockdowns in between, so the farming and growing has taken some time to establish. Needless to say, the diet is totally vegetarian and completely raw with no added sugar, oil, pulses or grains. Your day is infused with many light, diluted vegetable juices and herb teas, a fruity brunch, tea and seed and dry fruit based cookies (slow baked in a de-hydrator) and a delicious 3 course dinner at 6pm. After a 3 ½ hour drive from Kochi, I was given a fruit salad smothered in coconut cream (of course the coconuts are from their own organic farm and soon most of the fruit and vegetables will be too) for breakfast.
