Yoga at the
Spirit of Life Resort – individual & transformative

Manoj Premakumara Abeyrathne, our experienced Hatha yoga teacher, gently guides you through each practice and meditation. His focus is not on demonstrating his own abilities, but on unfolding your individual potential. With great mindfulness, precision and empathy, he offers variations for beginners and advanced practitioners alike, so everyone can experience the practice in their own rhythm.

Our circular, open yoga space is a place of energy: the wooden floor beneath your feet, the sound of the waterfall and the birdsong help you sink into stillness. Combined with yoga by the ocean, morning yoga on the beach and guided meditations, a space is created in which body, mind and soul naturally come into harmony.

During the off-season, the yoga space also opens its doors to groups and provides an inspiring setting for retreats, workshops and shared practice sessions. The space creates the perfect environment to move together, focus the mind and consciously experience moments of deep relaxation.

What our guests say

  • A paradise on earth! If you are looking for an Ayurveda retreat, Spirit of Life Resort is the perfect choice. For me, everything was just right: daily 2.5-hour massages, healthy and delicious food, yoga and an exceptionally warm and friendly team. The Ayurveda doctor was extremely competent, and the individually tailored treatments significantly relieved my symptoms. We were welcomed with flowers and also said goodbye with them – I felt completely pampered and welcomed. The stay helped me fully relax and release stress. The entire resort is beautifully maintained with great attention to detail. Fresh flowers on the balcony and tables are just one of many loving touches that make this place so special. The large, clean pool and the private beach, easily reached by tuk-tuk, are perfect for relaxation. Beate and Sanjeewa treat their guests like family – you can feel it in every moment. I would have loved to stay longer. For me, it was a truly life-changing experience that I wholeheartedly recommend.

  • This was my second time staying for a 3-week Ayurveda treatment at Spirit of Life in Sri Lanka, and once again I am absolutely thrilled. The resort offers a perfectly balanced experience for body, mind and soul. I did another Panchakarma treatment and was more than satisfied – from the professional treatments and soothing massages to the delicious, lovingly prepared Ayurvedic food. The entire team deserves special mention: incredibly warm, attentive and always striving to make every stay as comfortable as possible. You immediately feel welcome and well cared for. The recently renovated rooms are tastefully designed and offer the highest comfort. The newly designed private beach area with café, sunbeds and plenty of peace is another highlight and a perfect complement to the treatment. For me, Spirit of Life is a place to fully unwind and regain strength. I recovered wonderfully and will definitely return – a true recommendation!

  • We experienced an intensive Ayurveda treatment in paradise at Spirit of Life. The massages, the food and the personal atmosphere created by the friendly staff made for a unique experience. It was the many loving details throughout the beautiful property that made this holiday unforgettable. The private beach under palm trees is a true oasis for relaxing time between treatments.
