Ayurveda

What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda translating from Sanskrit as “Knowledge of Life,” is the world’s oldest, most complete and time-proven healing science. It originated in India more than 5,000 years ago during the ancient Vedic culture, and is known as Medicine of the Gods. Ayurveda addresses the root causes of disease (not just the symptoms) and treats without any adverse side effects.

How can Ayurveda help me to achieve optimum health?
Ayurveda creates vibrant health and longevity through sattvic (pure) foods, herbs, massage, body treatments, yoga, deep pranic breathing, and a consistent daily routine that is in keeping with our unique constitution or dosha (vata, pitta, kapha). These tools help us to release toxins accumulated in the body that lead to the dis-ease most of us suffer in today’s world.

How can Ayurveda lead me toward inner peace and true happiness?
Rooted in the spiritual tradition of the Vedas, Ayurveda’s ultimate goal is to help us achieve self-enlightenment or true happiness, only possible through a healthy body and sound mind. Meditation, chanting of mantras or prayers, and ceremonial pujas bring inner peace and reflection, allowing us to release patterns that cause anxiety and block us from lasting happiness. By keeping us physically healthy and emotionally stable, an Ayurvedic Lifestyle allows us to focus our time and energies on enjoying this gift of life.
