2021 was definitely another unpredictable year for most of us! Within our company, we've had to make some adjustments to continue operating within current regulations. Things are also becoming increasingly difficult with regard to healthcare, insurance, the health divide (vaccinated and unvaccinated), and an increasingly undermined economy.
Over the past two years, there have been clear shifts in client behavior and needs. The demand for both physical and mental health support has increased dramatically since the onset of COVID-19. There is also a greater need for a smaller scale and a safe, familiar space where you can just be yourself.
We're moving with the times. Therefore, we've decided to continue focusing on Ayurveda, consulting, (therapeutic and wellness) treatments for the time being, and less on courses and workshops. These can now continue in small groups, in consultation, and can be organized as needed.
Our wellness department (LakShmi Ayurveda Sensorial Spa) in Groningen was established in June of this year and is steadily taking shape with new staff and trainee beauticians. At our Winschoten location, we continue to focus on clients/guests for multi-day individual (spa) packages.
