Ayurveda, Meditation and Lifestyle -
Be Good, Be Healthy and Live Longer

The idea that purity, virtue and merit are the best medicine for maintaining good health, and a long life free from disease, is very old.

Ayurveda is an ancient, traditional Indian holistic system of medicine. It encompasses diet, lifestyle and herbs as well as yoga, meditation and prayer. The prescriptions advise the avoidance of unwholesome habits and the acceptance of wholesome ones, including a nourishing diet for physical health and a happy and enjoyable life, according to our own individual constitutions.

The holistic approach of Ayurveda presents vital information for a balanced and healthy life in mind, senses, body and soul, through philosophical and spiritual healing techniques which connect the personal to the universal, and the so-called ‘mundane life’ to the reality of the inner Self.

We will consider:

  • How can practices of simple goodness, meditation, right action and pleasant company help towards our health?
  • Are we aware of the right diet to sustain and nourish our individual bodies?
  • Is happiness, peace and balance a part of the way we live our lives?
  • Can we avoid intellectual error caused by pressure and stress in life by developing clearer discrimination and more accurate perception?

Discover the truth of who we really are and the purpose of life for perfect health, happiness and freedom.
