Course Description
Ayurveda (“Science of Life”) is one of the oldest systems of self-care, viewing the body, mind, and spirit in a harmonious relationship. Its primary goal is to create balance for disease prevention and overall life quality enhancement. In this tradition, psychology, daily routine planning (Dinacharya), nutrition, yoga, and meditation play a central role. Ayurveda emphasizes that essential daily activities—such as eating, sleeping, and working—should follow a consistent rhythm aligned with nature to maintain health, vitality, and mental clarity.
This course is designed to help participants create a personalized lifestyle and customize self-care across the three dimensions of mind, body, and spirit. It is structured according to internationally recognized educational standards.
The one-year program is divided into two terms (Foundational and Advanced). Upon completion, participants will be able to:
- Determine individual constitution (Prakriti) and imbalances (Vikriti).
- Provide practical guidance for daily routines, nutrition, yoga, and meditation tailored to individual needs.
- Utilize complementary Ayurveda tools such as aromatherapy, sound therapy, and the five senses (taste, smell, hearing, sight, touch) to enhance wellbeing.
- Apply Vastu principles (architecture aligned with nature) to harmonize environment and mental-physical health.
- Develop a sense of natural aesthetics reflecting inner and outer harmony.
