YOUR AYURVEDA JOURNEY STARTS HERE

The Foundations of Ayurveda 200-hour training is a dynamic, comprehensive exploration of the philosophy, theory, and practices of Ayurveda. This robust program has been thoughtfully designed and is equally enriching for those seeking to establish the first 200 hours of their professional 650-hour Ayurvedic Health Counselor training or 300-hour Ayurvedic Yoga Teacher Training, as well as for students interested in studying Ayurveda but not necessarily looking to make a career out of it.

Highlights of this training include:

• In-depth theory of the doshas
• Dinacharya—routines for health and well-being, such as care of the sense organs, sleep habits, and mindfulness practices—as it relates to circadian rhythms
• An engaging, hands-on approach to Ayurvedic cooking, digestion, nutrition, and seasonal eating
• Introductory Sanskrit
• Ayurveda-informed yoga, meditation, and pranayama, and how these practices complement an Ayurvedic lifestyle
• Ayurvedic psychology—exploring the power of the mind in creating balance and health.

Discover your own sources of wisdom through our integrated curriculum. The Kripalu approach provides a unique mix of didactic education and experiential sessions, making the study of Ayurveda an exciting exploration that leaves you feeling more connected to yourself, others, and seasonal rhythms. Continue to practice the teachings in your daily life through at-home study assignments between sessions.
