We are officially back in session!

What to Expect During a Student Consultation?
Our students, immersed in Ayurvedic studies, transition their classroom knowledge to practical application in the clinic. They inquire about your routine, diet, sleep, and health history, examining your tongue, nails, and face. In-person consultations include pulse readings. Based on this, students, guided by faculty, create personalized protocols for your needs, whether related to routine, digestion, sleep, stress, or other concerns.

Book your consultation today, available both ONLINE & IN-PERSON in Asheville, NC!

We're thrilled to announce that our Enrollment is officially open! If you've been interested in studying with us, now is your chance! Visit ayurveda.com for more information and begin your application process today!

Aromatherapy is a great tool to support balancing our doshas. In the wintertime, try using eucalyptus as a way to help uplift and bring some zing to balance out the dull and heavy qualities of kapha. Whether it's through steaming or just a quick inhale, can help to really boost yourself up.

What other aromatherapy do you love in this season?

Sometimes all we need is a shift in perspective to create new habit patterns As we harness the energy of the new year, may we also bring a softness to the way we view the world.

Our 2023 in review! We’re pretty proud of these results! Here’s to a wonderful 2024!

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude and love this season. We'll be sharing all the things we're grateful for this week, and we'd love if you did the same. Let us know what Ayurveda has given you!

Friends, teachers, mentors, colleagues,stewards—but the greatest role we’ll all ever play is the “chronic student of Ayurveda” as our dear Dr. Lad always says. Happy Thursday friends!

Celebrate Ayurveda Week with us! Today, let's talk about nourishing the 5 elements via TANMATRA CHIKITSA. This basically translates to nourishment or treatments that support the 5 elements or therapies that incorporate the 5 elements. These types of therapies can work on the subtle and pranic bodies to target various aspects of our wellness. Here are some examples of tanmatra chikitsa that we personally love! What are some of yours?

1. ETHER: Imaginative thinking/drawing. Tap into the expansive and universal side of your being! Draw upon your imagination and let your mind and heart free!

2. AIR: Breathwork and breathing practices. Support your inherent PRANA! By increasing our lung capacity, we're supporting the air element in our body.

3. FIRE: Trataka meditation. Have you ever stared into a ghee lamp? It can be very therapeutic and supportive to our own internal fire and increase our inner flame of awareness.

4. WATER: This one seems simple: to just drink water. But also think of dancing or yoga practices that awaken the fluid nature of our being.

5. EARTH: Grounding! Walk barefoot on the earth and feel its energy draw back into you. Allow yourself to feel HELD

Celebrate Ayurveda Week with us! Today, we want to talk about the importance of OLEATION in Ayurveda. The sanskrit word snehanam translates to love and care. It also happens to be the word for oleation as well! So today, add a little oil to your daily routine. Our favorite ways are:
-A little oil in the nostrils to support the nasal passage
-A little oil on the body to support healthy circulation
-A little oil on the feet to support sound sleep
-A little oil on your food to support healthy digestion

What's your favorite way to incorporate oil into your life?
