Then you will be able to share health complaints, ailments, pains, and worries. I will then ask questions about personal details including your complaints, health history, family history, your current diet, lifestyle, etc. I might ask to see your tongue, have a closer look at your eyes and fingernails, and take your pulse. Consent and boundaries are always respected so if you are not comfortable with it, we will skip it. At the end of my assessment, I will go over your Ayurvedic educational protocol. This can include an Ayurvedic interpretation of your current health state, food options (recipes are suggested when necessary), lifestyle, yoga postures, pranayama, meditation, and herbal formulations. These are tailored uniquely to your needs. You will receive a summary in PDF by e-mail. You are free to ask me any questions at any time.

Āyurveda (आयुर्वेढ) is the wisdom is life. Āyurveda is the ancient holistic medical science that originated in India. It’s estimated to be about 5,000 years old and it survived the test of time being successfully practiced all the way to modern times. Āyurveda is not just a set of instructions and rules but a discourse on the laws of nature that governs our physical, mental, and spiritual bodies. Āyurveda emphasizes prevention and health promotion. And it does so by making use of what is naturally available around you. An Ayurvedic protocol involves dietary changes, lifestyle changes, body work techniques, and the use of herbal formulations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62294d82bb9451259943b681/1647732987201-FLS5761FXTSJ3SQ5I1CM/unsplash-image-DNkoNXQti3c.jpg What is Ayurveda? - Personalized Medicine Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

Specifically, Āyurveda says we have three bodies: the physical body, the subtle body, and the casual body. The physical body is where we experience life in a three-dimensional time-limited space. The subtle body (which we can not perceive with our senses) is where our bodily humours (or doshas) and our mind are. The casual body, as in the cause why you exist now, is where the soul resides as a witness of life. Āyurveda assesses the health state of all three bodies and suggests holistic recommendations for healing at all levels. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62294d82bb9451259943b681/efb20ebb-5a83-45fc-8e93-68e3483e3b0e/prism-ge959810aa_1280.jpg What is Ayurveda? - The three energies Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

The healthier you are, the happier you feel. And health is your state of harmony with nature, both your own individual nature, and the nature around you.
