International Recognition & Collaboration

Ayurveda is the oldest and still the most complete form of wholistic medicine practised in the world today and through it TCM, Naturopathy, Western Herbalism etc as we know it, evolved.
The government department of AYUSH in India is bringing Ayurveda into mainstream recognition with its international initiatives in research, and through its wellness & prevention branding opportunities. This is a great opportunity for natural health professionals to not only harness the effective knowledge Ayurveda has to offer, but also build a solid wholistic practice that treats the person not the disease.

This is an opportunity for health practitioners to harness effective clinical knowledge and build a solid wholistic practice but to build partnerships, research and be part of the wellness & prevention movement.

The Importance Of The Bridging Course?

Ayurveda is one of the oldest life-sciences known to man. It is a unified philosophy of healthy living, mind-body restoration and rejuvenation, spiritual wholeness and balance. All Life, including the human body, is viewed through the lens of the universal laws of nature, including the understanding that the body is capable of self-healing, given the correct environment. We can liken this to our modern day biochemistry of feedback loops and self-regulation systems.
Thousands of years of epidemiological evidence surround its diagnostic processes, philosophy, and identification systems to accurately describe a process, and then implement the appropriate remedy of action within a whole systems biology paradigm. Ayurveda describes all life through the Panchamahabhuta 5 element theory, similar to genetics (prakruti), epigenetics (vikruti) and patterns of cause and effect (doshas).

Ayurveda Bridging Is The Future For Natural Medicine

Ayurveda is the oldest and still the most complete form of wholistic medicine practised in the world today and through it TCM, Naturopathy, Western Herbalism etc as we know it, evolved. The government department of AYUSH in India is moving Ayurveda into mainstream recognition through its international initiatives in research and branding Ayurveda as the wellness & prevention model for healthcare. This is a great opportunity for health practitioners to not only harness the breadth of knowledge and build a solid wholistic practice but also to bridge partnerships, research collaboration and become part of the wellness & prevention movement.

Ayurveda trained practitioners are committed to understanding the principles of Ayurveda so that they can use this knowledge to both prevent disease and assist sick patients become well again. Furthermore, Ayurveda ancient texts tell us that it is the responsibility of the practitioner to educate each patient the basic principles of daily and seasonal routines, and dietary regimes so that patients become empowered to keep themselves healthy. This is the basis of prevention and wellness!

When a patient begins their health journey with a practitioner, they are often most interested in alleviating the symptoms of their condition. While many practitioners can do this, what makes Ayurveda unique is its emphasis on self-awareness. When people understand their constitution and how they relate to the world around them, they become empowered with the choice of how to live in harmony with their environment! The practitioner is the guide for this change. So this makes the practitioner and patient relationship a very important one!
