What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is a holistic health care system often called the “Mother of all healing”. Ayurveda is the science of life and longevity, embodying physical balance, emotional peace, mental health, environment-mindedness & spiritual development. Ayurveda is a holistic system which promotes health and vitality using natural, organic and non-toxic substances for healing, recognizing the inter-connectedness of the body, mind and emotion. Ayurveda is a healing aspect of Yoga, while Yoga is the spiritual aspect of Ayurveda. Ayurveda is both systematized knowledge and practical wisdom, an art of complete and holistic healthy living. Ayurveda places great emphasis on its prevention and self-healing care system.
