At JAPA Ayurveda Retreat, we are dedicated to the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda, an ancient healing system that has been nurturing health and wellness for over 5,000 years. Rooted in the Sanskrit words “Ayur” (life) and “Veda” (science or knowledge), Ayurveda is the “science of life” that guides us to a harmonious balance between Mind, Body, Spirit, and Environment.
Ayurveda is more than just a system of medicine; it is a way of life that emphasizes the importance of balance and harmony.
According to Ayurvedic principles, good health is achieved when our physical, mental, and spiritual selves are in sync with the universe. When this balance is disrupted by factors such as stress, poor diet, or environmental changes, illness can occur.
Everything in the universe, living or non-living, is connected. Our health reflects this interconnectedness.
The three fundamental Doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — that govern our physical and mental processes.
Space, air, fire, water, and earth combine to form the doshas and everything in the universe.
