About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-4.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-7.jpg\" "\\"\\"")

<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-13.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-14-Dr-Prem-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-15-Dr-Prem-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani.

<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n

It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-30-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")

You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/12\/Wellness-Post-Ad-2.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
![\"Fazlani](\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/02\/Fazlani-Natures-Nest-32-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n
Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art. It not just satisfies you by doing what you love but also works best for improving your mental, physical, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n
Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art. It not just satisfies you by doing what you love but also works best for improving your mental, physical, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n
Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art. It not just satisfies you by doing what you love but also works best for improving your mental, physical, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n
Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art. It not just satisfies you by doing what you love but also works best for improving your mental, physical, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani.

The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n

About Fazlani Nature’s Nest<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest is located in Vadgaon (Near Lonavala), Maharashtra. It is a 68 acres property surrounded by lush greens with a plethora of flora and fauna overlooking the azure waters of Andra Lake. I had the pleasure to visit this gorgeous property with my family. In my opinion, this retreat is one of its kind holistic wellness destination in India. It is a perfect place for achieving enhanced mental, physical, spiritual, environmental, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nI was invited to Falzani Nature Nest to experience an incredible journey to wellness. It indeed turned out to give me some cherishable memories in my pursuits for well-being. The moment I landed in this place, my family and I were welcomed with exquisite welcome drinks and a lot of warmth. I couldn\u2019t be more grateful to Garvit and general manager Jagdip who ensured my comfort throughout my trip here.<\/p>\n
What makes Fazlani Nature’s Nest a unique wellness retreat is its valuable features \u2013 equestrian club, in-house farming, special culinary services, animal-assisted therapy, and various ancient and modern wellness therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe retreat also offered around 70 to 100 conference rooms for group corporate events, wellness events, etc. Guests can also go trekking or cycle through the hills and pathways of this massive landscape to enjoy the fresh nature around the property. The bliss and sense of well-being that I felt in this place was simply exceptional.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarm to Fork\u201d concept of Fazlani Nature’s Nest\u00a0 \u2013 Reimagining the Bond of Agrotourism and Culinary Tourism<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest has a massive 12 acre land dedicated to in-house farming. It was refreshing to see batches of some fresh and organically grown mushrooms, strawberries, cabbages, bananas, cardamom, cotton buds, various spices, and a lot more. This makes the land super attractive and inviting for agro-tourism where guests can also take part in various farming activities.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Subsequently, the retreat also offers a quality culinary tourism experience and that is obvious. This is where the concept of \u201cfarm to fork\u201d comes in place. The guests are allowed to pick any vegetable of their choice and the chefs readily prepare special wellness cuisine using them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nSome of the most highlighted dishes on their menus are sprout dosas, broccoli omelets, different soups, healthy juices, and shakes. And I have to admit, the chefs \u2013 Mr. Ravi Kandari and Mr. Sumit Singh, did a fantastic job at presenting the taste of pure nature and health on our plates.<\/span><\/p>\nUndoubtedly, agro-tourism and culinary tourism play a crucial role in enhancing your well-being. Agro-tourism takes your senses through an explorative journey. You learn how proper farming adds to the nutrient value of the produce.\u00a0 You take better care of bodily senses along with the wellness of your soul that you derive from the right nutrients and the right environment. It allows your mind, body, and soul to refresh, rejuvenate, and flourish progressively. The food was truly therapeutic and kept me light, energized, and fresh throughout the trip.<\/p>\n
The Unique \u2013 Equine Therapy<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nThe biggest surprise of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was waiting! It is the Equine Therapy. \u2018An Equestrian Club\u2019 was right in front of our eyes, the moment we entered the retreat. There were 22 horses in this place and were looked after by caretakers. Each horse has its own unique name.<\/p>\n
Equine Therapy was the first activity we went for in the retreat. Everything here was unique and amusing. It was a wondrous feeling just watching the entire setting of this place. The reason why Equine Therapy has become so popular as a wellness treatment is due to the great emotional connection that horses easily set with human beings. It is something different from keeping pets.<\/p>\n
The kids and I had a great time here with the horses. We didn\u2019t just ride them but also fed, brushed, and groomed them. The way these horses responded and connected with us was amazing and relaxing at the same time. It is believed that horses can see souls and they can perceive human emotions through their facial expressions. Well, I must say I couldn\u2019t agree more with it after this spectacular experience.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nEquine-assisted therapy dates back to an era when people used horse riding for therapeutic benefits in Greek literature. This therapy involves interacting with horses, taking care of them, feeding them, etc. with an aim to promote emotional, physical, and spiritual healing.<\/p>\n
This amazing equine-assisted therapy is evidence-based and has proven effective to address a wide range of issues, such as:<\/p>\n
\n- Grieff and loss<\/li>\n
- Anxiety<\/li>\n
- Depression<\/li>\n
- Trauma and PTSD<\/li>\n
- Acute stress disorder<\/li>\n
- Addiction\/ Substance abuse<\/li>\n
- Bipolar<\/li>\n
- Autism<\/li>\n
- Asperger\u2019s syndrome<\/li>\n
- Attention deficit\/ Hyperactivity disorder<\/li>\n
- Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n
- Learning difficulties<\/li>\n
- Post-traumatic brain surgery<\/li>\n
- Lowers blood pressure and heart rate<\/li>\n
- Improves strength and balance<\/li>\n
- Improves mobility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As much as it is one amazing experience, it is also necessary to ensure an individual\u2019s safety especially before riding the horse as it may not be recommended for those with spinal or back problems. The retreat has specialists and qualified therapists to attend and assist you throughout your time with these horses. One must also make sure to be gentle while interacting with animals during any animal-assisted therapies.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nCoffee with the Chairman \u2013 Mr. Abdul Fazlani <\/strong><\/h2>\nDuring my wonderful trip, I got to learn a lot about Mr. Fazlani. Along with offering wellness and well-being to thousands of people, he also has given quite an impressive contribution to shaping the future of many children with his CSR activities. His passion and dedication to this wellness retreat are inspiring. His determination towards building a healthy and holistic life for people can be clearly seen through his work and services. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
More Highlighted Features of the Fazlani Retreat<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The Scenic Beauty<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nA short buggy drive took me to a luxurious lake site view villa for our stay at the retreat. I was thrilled with the appealing surroundings, lavish interiors, and impressive amenities. The crux of everything was the incredible view of the lake from the big windows of the room; it was heavenly.<\/p>\n
As far as you could see, the land was covered with fresh greenery blessing your eyes, senses, and soul with peace and serenity. I especially enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi, where I rested and spent quality time sinking into the warm, relaxing bath. It was one of the best room stays accompanied by the surreal beauty outside.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nAgrotourism<\/h2>\n
One of the best parts of staying at Fazlani Nature’s Nest is the joy of consuming organic farm-nourished food. The Ahara Farms at the retreat grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices. Every dish and meal prepared at the retreat uses naturally grown ingredients from their farm itself.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
They also offer a 60-min tour of this gorgeous farm that doesn\u2019t just amaze you but also welcomes you to learn in-depth about organic farming, techniques, the importance of eating healthy, etc. The guide also gives you tips for making your own kitchen garden at your home. You will be longing to do that in your backyard once you are back!<\/p>\n
Art of Birding and Self-Discovery with Animal-assisted Therapy<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest welcomes you to explore and enjoy the vibrant and soothing world of birds and animals in their natural habitat. Apart from horses, there were more than 200 birds and other animals like rabbits, turkeys, ducks, etc in the property. It felt refreshing to have these feathered friends around you in the widely spread park.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you know that watching birds or animals or just being around them can enhance your mental health and overall well-being? Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h2>\nThe Swimming Pods<\/h2>\n
One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n
Artisanal Cheesemaking<\/h2>\n
Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n
You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n
Fishing for Weal<\/h2>\n
Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p>
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nIt is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n
CSR Activities by Group<\/h2>\n
Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n
Sunrise view from the Machan<\/h2>\n
The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n
My Tour to Soex Flora<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nNext to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n
Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n
Wellness Cooking Session<\/h2>\n
During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n
Hobby Studio<\/h2>\n
Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n
Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art. It not just satisfies you by doing what you love but also works best for improving your mental, physical, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n

Being surrounded by them will pause all your stress and bring a sense of renewal and calm. It also improves your patience, reflexes, focus, heart rate, and promotes mindfulness as well.<\/p>\n One thing that highly impressed me about the Fazlani Nature’s Nest was the naturally designed swimming pods. There were several swimming pools divided into sections, which could be used by men and women separately.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The structure of these pods was mesmerizing. You will feel your dopamine levels shooting! In my opinion, Fazlani Natures Wellness Retreat with all its amazing features and amenities has upheld the philosophy of holistic wellness in true sense allowing guests ample opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh.<\/p>\n Fazlani Nature’s Nest allows you to experience the art of cheesemaking in the lap of nature itself. This is an activity that lets you interact with goats, try milking, and experience the entire beautiful process of cheesemaking with expert chefs.<\/p>\n You also get to taste the pure flavor of fresh farm milk and organically grown ingredients in each sip.\u00a0 Veterinary specialists will guide you about the milking schedule and help making your own perfect organic cheese in the open authentic natural setting.<\/p>\n Experience the wondrous relaxation and intense mindfulness while you enjoy fishing for wellness. It is a ritual that is not just about sitting by the lake and waiting for a big catch, rather it is a process that helps you to be in the moment and let go of worries.<\/p> It is an ideal exercise that fills you with excitement and helps balance your mind and body. The calm surrounding helps you focus better and be at the present moment, good for your mental and physical well-being<\/p>\n Dr. Fazlani \u2013 the Charmain and the owner of the Fazlani Nature’s Nest not just offers wellness services but also has schools for orphans and children of laborers. These schools provide amazing opportunities to explore and build their futures. In fact, some of these kids also turned out to work in big tech firms and some have even become doctors. It was inspiring and satisfying to see the good work.<\/p>\n The captivating sunrise from the Machan (elevated deck) was the cherry on the cake over this bewitching green land. Just sitting and watching the sun rising from the depth of the mountains left us enchanted forgetting the worries and stress of life far behind. The natural warmth from the sun gradually spread all over giving peace and calm to my body and mind.<\/p>\n Next to Equine therapy, there was a place dedicated to flora. Here they grow many different types of flowers. We saw at least 20 different colors of roses and many different types of other flowers. When seen from far away, it looked like a big colorful vibrant blanket made out of delicate flowers.<\/p>\n Various flowers are stringed together using the traditional method of threading. It was divine just to watch the whole process of stringing flowers together. The finished products were simply aesthetic. Fazlani Nature’s Nest exports these beautiful and naturally nourished flowers as well. The fragrance and freshness of each flower were remarkable.<\/p>\n During my stay in the retreat, my wife Janavi also took the wellness cooking session with the head chefs. During this session, we learned each and every detail of their food preparation and lessons about how to make a healthy relationship with our food.<\/p>\n \u201cYou are what you eat\u201d is an extremely true fact, which is why we should choose our food wisely. Thereby, for leading a healthy life, eating right must be given unnegotiable importance.<\/p>\n Hobby studio is a great place for anyone who desires to bring their passion to life. It encourages and supports you to work on your hobbies and take them to the next level. Especially for kids, it plays an important role by helping them to understand where their interest lies and become better at it.<\/p>\n Hobby studios can include everything right from yoga sessions to baking classes to mastering any form of art.
