What is BAYURIVIDA®?
BAYURVIDA® is a holistic Ayurveda concept. It is unique and is practiced exclusively at the Staudacherhof. It was developed at the Staudacherhof by host Peter Staudacher, yoga teacher and Ayurveda therapist Cristian Zanfir, and natural chef Sascha Horst. It combines the traditional Bavarian way of life with the Far Eastern healing art of Ayurveda.
The concept is based on three pillars: culinary arts, yoga, and Ayurveda. It creates incentives for a mindful and healthy life.
The BAYURVIDA® natural kitchen
A key component of the concept at Hotel Garmisch is the cuisine. Seasonal and regional ingredients are the focus here. At BAYURVIDA®, meat and fish dishes are also occasionally on the menu. The dishes are refined with special spices, always in balance with the three doshas: "Vata," "Pitta," and "Kapha," as well as the six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, spicy, bitter, and astringent. This ensures that the food is always soothing, easily digestible, and strengthens the immune system.
The own cookbookBAYURVIDA®-BAVARIAN HOLISM. Includes recipes with seasonal produce, as well as explanations of Ayurvedic ingredients and treatments. A total of 100 pages.
The yoga practice
Yoga means "connection." And "harmony." This is precisely what yoga practice at the Hotel Garmisch is all about. Targeted exercises stimulate mental and physical balance. You connect with your inner self. Conscious breathing helps you achieve a meditative state. This strengthens flexibility and mindfulness. Within us. And for us.
AYURVEDA AND BAYURVIDA®
Another pillar of the lifestyle concept at Hotel Garmisch is Ayurveda. The cornerstone of the philosophy is: taking your time. Consciously engaging with the effects. Appreciating them. For example, when cooking, when selecting and preparing food.
Ayurvedic treatments are also offered in the spa at Hotel Garmisch. Ayurvedic massagesFor example, the Garshan massage. A dry massage. Or the Mukabhyamha massage. For the face, head, and upper body. Performed by qualified massage therapists. And with precious oils. Naturally scented rooms. This creates a unique atmosphere of calm and balance.
