The experience started with a postural 'reading' by Jane. She observed minor
misalignments and from this devised some yoga stretches which touched on deeply defended and
clenched areas of my body. Arvind massaged those areas whilst counseling me on the related old,
held emotions. The tone is gentle, nurturing and cocooning - not pushing one to new heights but
rather coming home to soft, comfortable feelings of self acceptance in body and mind. A
distinctly caring energy. At Pujjis you get something which money can very seldom buy you - love,
and from-the-heart nurture.The remarkable thing is that this treatment' flows from the yoga
room to the massage table and out into mealtimes, and the rest of your stay. it's about two
attentive individuals who extend to you their all-day care and don't take on more than a handful
of guests at once.

London, England After spending three nights at Pujjis we realised that it was not enough and we
signed up for another six. Jane and Arvind provide a warm, safe, friendly, educational and spiritual
retreat that allows you to understand and come to grips with exactly what it is that you are looking for.
Like many we had been searching, reading, and studying with no direction, but once we arrived at Pujjis we
realized that the search was over and we could just relax and be our true selves.It has been two months
now since our visit to Pujjis and we are still reminded daily of the lessons we learned and the friendship
we made with Jane and Arvind. Thank you for allowing us to share in a small part of your life.

Canada I returned to the Puiji's as my first time was so special. Even though I was on my own with just a few days to spare, Jane and Arvind's gentle attention gave me what I needed at that very moment. Their ease and hospitality is warm and natural; time with them is restoring and what I have taken away, invaluable

About Pujjis
Pujjis is a large wooden villa whose back veranda nudges the beautiful waters of the Maitai River. From this extensive veranda you can sit and watch the river go by, lay in the hammock, read a favourite book or simply snooze. The spa and the sauna overlook the river and you can lie in the spa at night watching the stars to the sound of the river. Wide wooden steps take you down to the river where in summer you can swim. There is a large guest lounge and dining area, with plenty of room to stretch out as well as interacting with us and the other guests. There are many places for solitude within and around the property. The Massage Room is available for massage and bodywork and postural awareness. The sanctuary room is available for yoga, movement and bodywork, to listen to music and enjoy quiet time. We are only 8 minutes' drive from Nelson. It takes about 25 minutes by bike and 1.5 hours walking. Accommodation
Each of the four cosy double bedrooms is tastefully furnished to enhance the enjoyment of your stay with us. The rooms at Pujjis are named after our favourite mystic poets:
