The wellness weekend intensive benefits those interested in learning about Ayurveda, the ancient medical system designed to achieve optimal levels of physical and mental well-being. Ayurveda is based on traditional Indian health practices to help bring balance and harmony between the body, mind and consciousness. Participants will be able to identify ways they can be responsible for their own health, focusing on disease prevention and maintenance, five element theory and six tastes, and designing daily health routines.
The course will be taught by Dr. Lilidhar Gupta, B.Sc., B.A.M.S., a registered Ayurvedic physician and on the Board of Indian Medicine. Gupta has practiced Ayurvedic medicine in New Zealand, Europe, Asia and India. He is also on the Board of Advisors of the California College of Ayurveda and is a pioneer in self-healing Ayurvedia.
