Ayurveda At St.John's

Ayurveda, the science of life, is a part of India's ancient tradition and philosophy. Several thousand years old, it highlights an ideal lifestyle in order to establish and also maintain radiant physical, mental and spiritual health. Ayurveda also interprets the countless possibilities of diseases and suggests remedies to direct man from the imbalances of life to the pathway of natural living.

Ayurveda considers each individual as a cell in the body of Mother Nature. When all these cells function in perfect harmony, cells unite with the mega symphony known as the perfect health. During our life time this symphony can be disturbed by the changes in climate and lifestyle. Ayurveda's goal is to reconnect us to an exemplary life of Sathya, Dharma, Shanti, Prema and Ahimsa. This holistic approach makes Ayurveda popular worldwide.
