The ancient science of life known as ayurveda was created by the same grand confluence of Indian spiritual traditions that produced tantra, yoga, and meditation. This course includes all the significant theoretical components from the foundational course in addition to elaborating on advanced subjects. It's a chance to brush up on your Ayurvedic knowledge, delve further into it, or even start studying it seriously. This course focuses in particular on the herbal and dietary components of Ayurveda. You'll learn how to produce a number of potent herbal remedies. The ancient Indian system of the five elements—earth, water, air, fire, and aether—will also be covered. The six tastes, the three body types, and the active ingredients in all foods are intricately entwined with these factors.
