Ayurveda is the traditional medicine of India. Ayurveda means in Sanskrit “knowledge or wisdom of life”. While a medical science, its scope enters into the realms of the spirit and the transformation of consciousness. Its fundamental philosophy is that disease is the end result of living out of harmony with the environment. It believes that in order to re-establish optimal health, the individual must discover where we are living out of harmony and then adopt a life style which brings them back into harmony.
