The word AYUR literally means ' life ' and VEDA means ' knowledge '. It is an intricate system of natural healing indigenous to India and Kerala in particular dating back to 5000 years which now enjoys a resurgence in both India as well as the rest of the World. It has its origins in the Vedic culture of India and some say, it was a secret revealed to the sages by Brahma, the Creator. Ayurveda is designed to help people stay healthy while realizing their full human potential treating the cause of the disease by eradicating it and enhancing immunity. Providing guidelines on ideal daily and seasonal routines, diet, behaviour and proper use of our senses reminding us health is a dynamic integration between environment, body, mind and spirit. Ayurveda recognises human beings are part of nature and made up of ‘five’ elements. These are Ether (space), Air, Fire, water & Earth. They combine to create three fundamental energies that govern our bodies which are Vata, a combination of ether and water, a force that controls that directs nerve impulses, circulation, respiration and elimination. Pitta, the equilibrium between fire and water which controls digestion and Kapha is the combination of water and earth responsible for growth and immunity. Each of us has a unique proportion of these three elements that shape our nature. If Vata is dominant, we tend to be thin, light, enthusiastic, energetic and flexible. If Pitta is dominant, we tend to be intense, intelligent, goal-oriented with a strong appetite for life. When Kapha prevails, we tend to be easy going, methodical and nurturing. Ayurveda therefore treats each individual to remove any imbalances and treats disease by eliminating the underlying cause through a system of intervention using nutrition, lifestyle changes, herbs, oils, massages, music and meditation to re-establish the natural balance.
