The laws of Ayurveda are universally valid and timeless. They describe the nature of life itself.” (Caraka-Samhita)
Ayurveda - ancient wisdom for a new era
Ayurveda describes life as the interaction of body, mind, soul and senses.
Ayurveda, one of the oldest medical sciences, teaches us how these elements interact, what promotes harmony and health, and what can disrupt this delicate balance and should therefore be avoided.
Although ancient, the developed Ayurvedic principles are universally valid and timeless.
Therefore, the Ayurvedic philosophy of life is still a practical enrichment nowerdays and in our cultural sphere.
Ayurveda offers outstanding benefits both in preventative healthcare and as a medical system. In Ayurveda, the individual and their overall situation are always at the center of consideration and approach.
The basic building blocks in the Ayurvedic worldview are the five elements: ether, air, fire, water and earth, from which both the macrocosm and microcosm are composed.
The unique aspect of the Ayurvedic concept lies in the doctrine of the three doshas.
Doshas are bioenergetic principles derived from the five elements:
The Vata dosha is composed of the elements ether and air. It is the principle of movement.
The Pitta dosha consists primarily of the element fire and, to a lesser extent, water. It is considered the metabolic principle.
The Kapha dosha contains the elements water and earth. It is the principle of stability.
These three Dohas are at work in every human being. They constantly interact with each other and control all physical and, to some extent, mental processes.
The balance of these bioenergies is crucial for health and well-being. Conversely, the development of illnesses is attributed to an imbalance of the doshas.
The composition of the doshas varies from person to person. This diversity gives rise to the constitutional types.
The basic human constitution is an important starting point for Ayurvedic treatment and advice.
The Ayurvedic lifestyle aims to maintain or restore the individual balance of the doshas. This includes a tailored diet with appropriate spices and herbs, treatments adapted to one's constitution, ethical conduct, and daily hygiene practices.
Constitution analysis & nutritional and lifestyle advice
Ayurveda honors the diversity of people and seeks to understand them by determining their basic constitution. With this understanding, Ayurveda can provide guidelines and advice that go beyond generalities and address the individual.
