Visitors synchronize breath with elephant movements and shadows in open habitats.
Kerala has unveiled Elephant Shadow Breathing Workshops, where participants engage in guided breathwork synchronized with elephants’ natural movements and shadows. According to The Hindu, trainers emphasize ethical wildlife observation, mindfulness, and relaxation.
Participants report calmness, mental clarity, and immersive connection with nature. Trainers ensure safety, structured routines, and ethical interaction with animals. Critics question novelty, but supporters highlight wellness, educational enrichment, and tourism appeal. Future expansions include retreats, themed workshops, and collaborative mindfulness exercises.
