A Wonderful Home Atmosphere

"Stepping inside Surya is like walking into a wonderful home. You're enveloped with warmth and color: herbs and oils bubble, in the kitchen, crockpots steam with cumin-spiced kitchari, therapists prepare muslin boluses filled with herbs and milks, the smell of freshly-baked almond-flour bread fills the air."

Community and Communion

"You can't go far without someone offering you some of that almond-flour bread… like a delicious communion. If you sit at the community table, or pass the meditation room, you'll often hear someone ask, hair shining, skin glowing, the usual question: 'What day are you on?'"

The Magic of Transformation

"It doesn't take long to realize that many people enjoying Surya's treatments are in the middle of a magical journey…" This transformation is visible in the glowing skin and shining hair of those experiencing Surya's treatments.
