What to Expect From Your Ayurvedic Consultation
"Ayurveda is not just a health-care system but a complete approach to living. It offers a rich and comprehensive conception of life and health that takes into account all parts of human existence, from it's most abstract, transcendental value to it's most concrete expressions in human physiology"
~Dr. Sunil Joshi, founder of Vinyak Ayurveda and Author of Ayurveda and Panchakarma
Prior to your first ayurvedic consultation, you will be asked to complete a confidential, detailed health questionnaire and bring it with you to your first appointment. Together, we will review it thoroughly and discuss your current concerns. Our goal will be to come to an understanding of your prakriti (ayurvedic constitution) and vikriti (current imbalances), and begin an inquiry of what may be at the root of any symptoms you are experiencing. I will include traditional ayurvedic practices such as pulse reading and tongue examination. Then we will discuss suggestions that will start you on your journey of Self-healing.
Individualized recommendations may include:
~ Simple dietary changes for abundant energy while supporting mental calm and clarity
~Stress reduction and relaxation techniques that alleviate tension, anxiety and physical discomfort
~ Uncomplicated lifestyle and daily routine modifications to restore your natural rhythms
~ Creating space and time in your life to connect with your deepest needs for living a life in balance
~Supportive, natural therapies to help you achieve your goals
You will be provided with easy to follow guidelines to take with you, and understand the how's and why's of each recommendation before you leave. Some may seem so simple that you may wonder how they could help, but I ask that you trust the wisdom of Ayurveda and the laws of nature. The goal of Ayurveda is to bring us back to who we truly are and restore balance in mind, body, senses and soul.
