Ayurveda originated in India more than 5,000 years ago and is considered by many scholars to be the oldest healing science. In Sanskrit, Ayurveda means “the science of life”.

In this introductory workshop, we will cover the basic principles of Ayurevda:

  • Health is based on living balance with our own nature and with Mother Nature.

  • Disease is a consequence of imbalance.

  • Each of us is born with a unique constitution – a combination of the three basic energy types (vata, pitta, kapha) called “doshas.”

  • The balance of our constitutions in affected by what we put into and onto our bodies, by the world around us, and by our lifestyle & activities.

  • By choosing balancing substances & activities, we can improve our health.

Susan Frank received her initial certification at the Ayurevedic Educator level from the Ayurvedic Institute in New Mexico in 2010, and has studied extensively with Energy Healing expert Rahul Patel. She has also successfully completed the first two levels of Pancha Karma through Kanyakumari-US in Milwaukee, enabling her to practice the treatments abhyanga, shirodhara, nasya, basti, netra tarpana, and karna purana.
