Namaste,

Are you digging your garden in preparation for May plantings?  

Are you spreading compost, removing rocks, and designing your summer and fall outcomes?  

If not physically, then metaphorically, now is the time to nourish your ground, remove obstacles and plan to make the most of the coming spring and summer opportunities for growth, and investment against daunting potentials.

Sure, there will be challenges from circumstances and nature outwardly, and from consciousness and awareness inwardly.  

However, we humans are well equipped to overcome adversity, as generations before us have shown.  

Now we need to consult our collective memory and engage for good, investing in labours in love, faith, and the ongoing inexorability of the law of cause and effect. 

We’re enjoined to ‘do our best and leave the rest to God’, and taught that ‘as you sow, so shall you reap’.  

So, for future happiness in all that’s predicted, let’s do our best to ‘get together and feel alright’.  

Here are some opportunities to get together with like-minded seekers and reformers, to enhance our relationships with ancient knowledge systems, especially Ayurveda.  

Sign up early and invite your friend or study buddy to join also, to engage in tried-and-true solutions!

Are you a health care professional looking for a dynamic way to get Continuing Education credits for a convenient, in-depth, mind-altering conversation to brush up on Ayurveda, the world’s oldest holistic health science?

Are you new to Ayurveda and want to take a deeper dive into the framework and terminology of this amazing, complete, relevant guide to life-long health?

What are the chances that you, dear reader, want to take a deeper dive into the framework and terminology is this amazing, relevant guide to life-long health, and discover the parent science of Polarity Therapy of Dr. Randolph Stone?

 In recent years, I’ve rarely offer beginners’ programs in Ayurveda.

Here’s a great opportunity to join this a 6-hr. forum, covering the foundational concepts of Ayurveda.

You’ll understand the cosmology, basic principles, and practices of Ayurveda, so relevant today in our search for true wholeness, amid fragmentation and marketing.  

This intensive outline will provide a good grasp of how Ayurveda is so different from modern medicine, with its roots in a spiritual understanding of humanity.

An overview of Marma Therapy will be presented, to honour the co-sponsor, the American Polarity Therapy Association, of which I’ve been a member since the 1980’s.  

Turiya Therapy™ is an evolute of Polarity Therapy, which was the first healing art of my self-healing journey, from some 40 years ago now, and still a foundation, after studying its parent science of Ayurveda.

AYURVEDA TREATMENT IN INDIA

November - December 2024

Tamil Nadu, India

Final Payment Deadline: June 30 2024

How often have you considered joining me as host of this unique cleansing and rejuvenation program?

Perhaps you’ve put it off, perhaps you’ve not taken the leap of faith to put your health first?

This year, I’m not promising further trips for this program. 

So now is the year to commit to your best holistic outcomes and finally plan accordingly.

Our destination open-air hospital is growing in popularity, so early reservations are now required. 

You know that Ayurveda cleansing and rejuvenation is not a spa experience, rather a deep dive into our mind/body habits and assumptions. 

If you feel ready to experience radical healing, transcendental realization, and joyous rejuvenation, in an atmosphere of love and pure science, now is the time for YOU!

Sure, you can sign up by yourself with any competent Ayurveda centre, often for a lower investment.  Those who have done both, by far prefer hosting with Jaisri, due to the daily supports and insights, and in favour of the far greater dividends. 

Like others before you, you will:

*Discover ancient principles of spiritual living in action

*Experience loving therapies and doctors’ supervision

*Relax into expert medical insights for your best outcomes

*Understand the language and tried-and-true practices of Ayurveda

*Take home life skills and experiences for top quality self-care

Pre-requisites:

You must be on your Ayurveda self-care program to be ready for your best treatment benefits. 

Your consultation update is needed to help ensure you are a candidate who can take full advantage of Ayurveda treatment. 

You’ll meet others from around the world who choose Ayurveda for restoring and maintaining their healthy function of body, mind, and consciousness. 

You may want to attend morning and evening traditional prayer recitations or take part in question & answer sessions called ‘Satsangs’, and join weekly community activities.

This ancient art of Ayurveda cleansing and rejuvenation has the power and know-how, to change our destiny of healing.

*To demonstrate and share the prototype of the traditional Ayurveda scientific classification system with collaborative groups such as Indigenous Nations, Universities and Non-Profit Herbal Associations.

*To support replication of this comprehensive scientific documentation system in any region of Canada, choosing to follow in our footsteps.
