Ayurveda, an ancient healing modality originating from India 5,00 years ago, and the longest continuously practiced medicine in the world, is based off of the premise that “all disease is rooted in the mind.” Every symptom has a base in the mind. Ayurveda, which was developed by seers and sages, has a highly sophisticated system for analyzing, purifying, and redirecting the mind. The ayurvedic approach to the mind not only heals the body, but takes the spirit to higher realms and on the road to enlightenment. In this workshop we will focus on how our actions, speech, and thoughts affect our energy fields, our physical bodies, and our karma. We’ll explore ways to bring the mind back to balance, bring peace and harmony into the body, and transcend the ordinary experience.
