What is the Ayurvedic Community Wellness Center?
We are a community-focused center supporting and nurturing wellness rooted in Ayurveda.
Our practitioners form a heart-centered community, deeply connected through their shared journey and dedication to the principles of Ayurveda. Over the years, the wisdom and guidance of Dr. Vasant Lad, alongside the nurturing environment of The Ayurvedic Institute, have been instrumental in bringing these exceptional individuals together.
While mindfully observing Dr. Lad’s profound lineage and time-honored teachings—which emphasize compassion, integrity, and deep healing—each clinician at our Center has developed their own unique style. This blend of traditional wisdom and individual expression allows for a diverse and rich tapestry of healing approaches, ensuring that every client receives personalized care that resonates with their specific needs and journey. Our Center's commitment to this balance ensures both reverence for the ancient roots of Ayurveda and an innovative approach to modern wellness.
Ayurveda is an ancient, holistic health system from India. In Ayurveda, everything (rocks, people, clouds, pets, trees, clothes, food…) is composed of the five elements: ether, air, fire, water, earth. Each element comprises specific qualities.
Every individual has their own unique ratio of elements and qualities, which makes up their constitution. An individual’s particular elemental expression allows for a unique health strategy. An individualized health strategy may include Ahar (Ayurvedic nutrition), Vihar (Ayurvedic lifestyle), Pranayama(Breathwork)/Yogasana(Yoga Postures)/ Meditation, herbal teas or formulas. The goal is to make the individual’s body as vital and conscious as possible, so that the true Self can shine through. Understanding your individual elemental expression is the cornerstone of Ayurvedic health, as it allows for the development of a truly individualized health strategy.
