Chakrata — Accessible Recovery
Close enough to civilisation to reach comfortably, remote enough that once you arrive, you have genuinely left. The dense forest creates natural nervous system regulation. Two thousand metres of altitude gently slows the thinking mind. This is the most accessible entry point for burnout recovery — no extreme conditions, just honest separation.
