The Dead Sea is the best natural "spa pool". Its water, due to the high concentration of minerals, if you bath daily, smoothes the skin, stimulates circulation and alleviates metabolic disorders, cleansing the body of toxins.

Sunbathing
Here, at 400 meters below sea level, the air gains exceptional density. Thanks to the enrichment with salts and minerals from the sea water. Thus it becomes a natural filter and reflects harmful ultraviolet rays. A dense ozone layer in the atmosphere protects from sunburns, even after long exposure to the sun. This is truly the best place on the planet for sunbathing! However, we recommend caution and gradual increase in the intensity of the sunbuthing.

I took the program to the end of March 2015 for one week. I would like to share the joyful experience that I have left after visiting this wonderful center. Week detox on fruits and vegetables went surprisingly easy, and yoga and meditation filled me with energy. Since Slava has been practicing his program for a long time, he managed to create a very spiritual atmosphere in the centre. The vicinity of the desert and the Dead Sea program complement powerful natural vibrations. In this center, you can rejuvenate, relax, dive into yourself healthier. And the proximity of the huge amount of historical and spiritual centers make this place unique. I wish more visitorsFor Slava, and prosperity for Ananda Center in Israel.

I sincerely thank you, thank, for this opportunity to relax and at the same time to work with your body and soul. It was a pleasant rest and productive work. Your program clears the mind and body from all superfluous and unnecessaries, that in the end it seems that this time was the most carefree and happy life for many years.
This is a great program. Here, everyone will find something for themselves. A good opportunity to feel what it is the soul desires the most globally or in a given period of life.
I am very glad that life has given me this trip to Israel in Anand school.
Thank you for the most healthy rest of my life. Good luck to all your endeavours
And long life :)

This program is suitable for everyone, without exception, but especially for the people who are interested in yoga and healthy food.
Personally, I got exactly what I came over. The program combines a sufficient number of spiritual practices, hatha yoga, meditation, as well as free time, which in everyday life we all so lacking for contemplation.
This is the best vacation for body and soul! Here everything is in harmony, even nature and the mountains around promote relaxation and disclosure of his super-consciousness.
I still have only positive emotions.
Best Regards, Diane, Riga
I spent a week doing a retreat program with Slava in Arad, Israel, near the Dead Sea. I learned new methods of meditation, safe way to practice yoga and the benefits raw food, organic diet. Retreat is quiet and clean, with a garden and a pond with fish. Slava even hung a hammock for me, so that I could sit back and in my spare time. The house and the balcony in my private room had a fantastic view of the desert. The air in Arad is clean and fresh, and the time at the Dead Sea was definitely unique and cleansing experience. Now, when I returned home, I was still practicing the teachings of Slava. I started eating more organic products, fresh fruits and vegetables. Now I am very attentive to what is happening in my body. Meditation is still a challenge for me, since I'm not patient, but I will try to apply the methods and teachings of Fame.

Wow!
Quite unexpectedly, but it's amazing. My martial arts became completely different and significantly improved. I can not explain exactly whether the balance, respiration, smooths of movement ... just feels amazing and great. And I'm still pretty much do what we did every day with Slava.
If God willing, I plan to continue because it works just great. Yogoda, yoga postures, meditation, chakra balancing, and whole organic fresh products.
I am also a physician, health practitioner (???) and religious. Sometimes even medical professionals have to make an important restart - update detox and de-stress.
Slava became a good friend, along with a positive influence in my life. He is one of the few people I met who actually practice what is taught. He lives in it and always striving to improve and achieve a higher level, sharing what he knows. He is patient and professional, always ready to help, guides and answers questions as fully as possible, and if he does not know, he will tell you about it.
Two thumbs up from me, and I highly recommend this retreat with a simple yet powerful program for those who wish to get back on track health and wellness. Thank you very much for warm welcoming in your home and help on my way.
Thank you, my friend, and I wish you to continue your good work.

How to get here:
The nearest international airport is Ben Gurion in Tel Aviv. Get plane-tickets that will let you land in the morning or afternoon! Comfortable ride by train / bus takes about 3 hours (a detailed description will be sent to you after purchasing plane-tickets). Apply for an inexpensive transfer organization (Russian-speaking (?) driver will meet you at the airport with a sign with your name).
