Ayurveda
Ayurveda ‘the Science of Life’ is a holistic system of life from India,
thousands of years old. The principles and philosophy of Ayurveda view
man as a complex whole, including our external and internal environments. The
principles are derived from universal laws of nature that have changed little
through time. With subjective, objective, and intuitive approaches to gaining
knowledge, incorporated with a deep understanding of the unseen intelligence
of the universe, the practices of Ayurveda have withstood the test of time.
Ayurveda believes five basic elements (space, air, fire, water, earth) manifest
in the human body as three basic principles known as Tri-Doshas. The Tri-
Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) govern creation, maintenance, and destruction of
bodily tissues as well as the assimilation and elimination. Each person is born
with a unique combination of the doshas, called their Prakruti. Understanding
of each persons Tri-Dosha and Prakruti, personal diet and exercise,
supplements and medicinal herbs, cleansing and rebuilding therapies that is
right for them, are among the chief methods Ayurveda employs for the
maintenance and restoration of health. It is not just a medical approach to life;
it is a complete philosophy that includes meditation, social interactions,
familial relationships, spiritual and devotional aspects of each individual.
Ayurveda defines life ‘Ayur’ as the intelligent coordination of our four parts,
the soul, the mind, the senses, and the body, with the totality of nature and
the cosmos. Health is not just a state of the body. We interact with the
seasons, planetary changes of the earth, and moon, other planets, as well as
orbiting relationships with in our lives, our loved ones and friends, co-workers
etc. We effect and are affected by every other animate and inanimate thing in
existence. Bringing all of this into balance is the key to living healthy.
In Ayurveda the whole life’s journey is considered to be sacred.

To balance the elements and the doshas of the body and the senses, there are
many treatments, therapies, and exercises available. To balance the elements
of the mind, meditations, mantra, and exercises are often used. Massage and
rasayana treatments, along with visualization, pranic breathing, and other
practices, allow personal access to intuition, and the innate knowledge of the
soul.
