Established as the oldest surviving complete medical system in the world, Ayurveda has its origins dating back more than 5ooo years ago. The name Ayurveda is derived from its ancient Sanskrit roots – ‘Ayur‘ (‘life’ or ‘longevity’) and ‘Veda‘ (‘science’ or ‘knowledge’). Ayurveda can be described as ‘The Science of Life or Longevity’ or ‘The Yoga of Life’. Ayurveda and Siddha provide the knowledge and the tools to allow you to experience your ‘life-span’ to its fullest extent This medical science offers a rich, comprehensive, holistic and meaningful outlook to a healthy life. Ayurveda aims to integrate and balance the body, mind and spirit. In doing so, it aims to:
- Maintain the health of those who are well and are not suffering from any disease condition. This is achieved by regulating diet and nutrition, exercise, hygiene and lifestyle.
- Cure disease and illness through accurate diagnosis and administering remedies and therapies to restore you to balance and good health.
However, the highest or ultimate goal of Ayurveda is to attain absolute detachment of the ‘Atman’ or soul. This is the state of liberation or ‘Moksham’. At the same time, the body, mind and its equipment are not neglected but brought very much into focus and attention, as it is the means of realising the Self or Truth. Each person will practice and live differently as each person is different and unique. Ayurvedic philosophy believes that people, their health, and the universe are all related. It is believed that health problems result when these relationships are out of balance. Ayurveda focuses on absolute perfect health and not disease; it embraces all areas of life – health, career, relationships and universal spirituality. Experienced Ayurvedic Practitioners can achieve wonderful results through sophisticated detoxification processes, lifestyle advice, diet, exercise and herbal therapy.
