BEST ME Journey with Chris
with Chris Nelson
26 Apr 2025 - 2 May 2025
This is a unique wellbeing system that supports gradual change in mind, emotions, nutrition, and movement, helping you become the best version of yourself.
English
BEST ME Journey is a unique online and offline wellbeing system that supports you in becoming the best possible version of yourself. It’s all about supporting a gradual evolution in your behaviour across multiple areas of your lifestyle – mind and emotions, sleep and relaxation, nutrition, exercise and movement, relationships, nurturing surroundings, creativity, financial abundance, and spiritual growth.
We will explore the fundamentals of behavioural change, specifically what enables and supports you in creating permanent change in your life. Whatever your goals and intentions are – whether it’s calming your mind, alleviating joint pain, or managing a challenging relationship – you will need to address your mind and emotions. This is because what you think, feel, and believe determines both what you attract and how you behave. That’s why we place so much importance on addressing calmness and clarity of mind.
The retreat is designed to both challenge and empower you, so at times you may feel uncomfortable, and at other times exhilarated and inspired. Aside from the daily workshops, we will focus on all the key pillars of wellbeing – sleep, movement, rest and relaxation, alone time, and good nutrition. The workshops will cover the four steps of the BEST ME Model:
🌟 H – Heart: Become clear about your heartfelt goals & intention
🌱 O – Obstacles: Master the limiting beliefs that stand in your way
💪 P – Pillars of wellbeing: Achieve lifestyle change through small, achievable steps
🔥 E – Empowered action: Learn the secret to calming your mind & emotions
The retreat that never ends
What’s so unique about this retreat is that once you return home, your journey has only just begun – because this is “the retreat that never ends”. Through our BEST ME App, you can now select a coach to guide you in creating and evolving your personal wellbeing program. The app also features a display of your daily rituals, links to the library for classes, talks, and programs, and access to all of our Ashiyana Retreats and trainings.

INSTRUCTORS
Chris Nelson
Chris is a coach, writer, yoga teacher, and entrepreneur who has been exploring the world of holistic wellbeing for most of his adult life. In his early thirties, he felt the call to ‘slow his life down’, and he dived headlong into Yoga.
While running yoga retreats around the world, Chris discovered an idyllic spot where he could realise his long-held dream of creating a paradisiacal, tropical retreat centre. Ashiyana Goa opened its bridge entrance to the world in December 2006, and year upon year it has grown and evolved into being one of the most acclaimed yoga and healing centres in India and the world. In 2019, he opened a second centre in Brazil, and then a third in Spain in 2024.
