What is this that you hear so much about??Ayurveda is a mind and body medical system from India. The name is Sanskrit ayus meaning life and Veda means science or knowledge. Practitioners seek to understand the patient on all levels, physical health and emotional health work together.
Ayurveda address diet, lifestyle, herbal Remedies, detoxification and spiritual practice. When looking at the whole person you recognize subtle changes that occur before illness occurs.
“Ayurveda is not about adding years to your life,it’s about adding life to your years” Dr.Chopra
One major difference between Western Medicine and Ayurveda is Ayurveda looks at health as balanced or imbalanced. Patients go to the Dr. because they are uncomfortable, if the Dr. doesn’t detect physical symptoms then they send patient home in the same condition they arrived.
Health is an integration of mind, body and emotions. If one of these fall out of balance they are all out of balance.
