About The Ashram California

The Ashram California is an all-inclusive fitness resort located in Calabasas, California that focuses on improving guests’ mental, emotional, and physical health.

The Ashram’s program is limited to twelve guests at a time, and to foster an ideology of closeness, all twelve guests will share a house, the same table for meals, and the same fitness tracks. While The Ashram’s main goal is to transform guests in mind, body and spirit, the resort also encourages guests to build lasting relationships with one another as they navigate their weeklong stay together.

The Ashram California offers week-long stays throughout the year, changing the program’s structure only to accommodate weather. The program is open to adults, and also offers onsite yoga, massage, and relaxation services.

Food

The Ashram California’s nutrition plan is a structured regimen focused on an organic plant-based diet. As opposed to counting calories, guests are encouraged to focus on building a better relationship with healthy food. Meals are served at a long wooden table with all 12 guests, in order to foster a close-knit, friendly environment between staff and visitors.

A large portion of the food served at The Ashram is grown in their own on-site organic garden. Guests are encouraged to visit the garden during their stay to learn about sustainable living and growing different types of fruits and vegetables.

The weekly nutrition plan is completely structured by the resort’s nutritional experts and includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack. Meals during a typical day include foods such as egg white tacos with plant sprout tortillas, brown rice rolls with beet salad, flax-seed crackers with almond butter and berries, grains, kale and arugula. Nutrition plans at The Ashram may be changed upon request to accommodate allergies or restricted diets.

Before visiting The Ashram, the resort asks that guests refrain from caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, sugars, and/or drug consumption for at least two weeks prior to their stay, in order to detox their bodies so they can get the most from their time in the program.

All food costs are included within the price of a stay.
