 Yoga & Ayurveda 

In my practice, I weave together the profound wisdom of Yoga and Ayurveda, offering a meticulously crafted program for health restoration and disease prevention, shaped by thorough client assessments. These venerable traditions, rooted in ancient India, stand as timeless systems dedicated to the promotion of holistic health.

Yoga, a discipline centered on spiritual growth, places a paramount focus on harmonizing the mind by mitigating tendencies that lead to its imbalance. On the other hand, Ayurveda, with its primary goal of health promotion, engages in preventing pathology and reinstating equilibrium in physiology.

As collaborative allies, Yoga and Ayurveda synergistically elevate the efficacy of each other's treatments. Yoga therapy, a non-pharmacologic approach, integrates physical postures, breathing practices, meditation, and relaxation techniques to realign prāņa (‘life energy’), physical, emotional, and intellectual facets. This comprehensive approach offers profound rest to both body and mind, catalyzing the healing of diseases.

Ayurveda, with its profound insights, identifies and eliminates root causes of diseases, restoring the delicate balance of doșas—the governing principles of physiology and psychology. It purifies toxins, enhances vigor, vitality, and sharpens the tone of all systems, fortifying against diseases.

These ancient "sister" sciences, recognizing the intricate interplay between spiritual well-being and physical health, share a common goal in influencing subtle levels of psycho-physiology to enhance systems regulation.

Their remarkable ability to restore health, especially in cases of non-communicable diseases, positions Yoga and Ayurveda as invaluable allies to modern science-based medicine in the realm of chronic illnesses and their prevention.

One who is established in Self, who has balanced dosas (primary life force), balanced agni (fire of digestion), properly formed dhatus (tissues), proper elimination of malas (waste products), well-functioning bodily processes, and whose mind, soul and senses are full of bliss is called a healthy person.


Sushruta Samhita 15/48.
