“Serene experience. I visited Dharana Shillim for a leisure getaway from Ahmedabad. Here I booked the ayurvedic consultancy from Dr Milind for my extreme migraine and acidity issues. The session really helped me in finding out my internal problems. The Tibetan bowl meditation was also an amazing experience for me. It gave me a sense of calm after attending it.”
