Ayurvedic Healing
Healing Begins From Within
The idea of giving an herb to sedate you for insomnia, or a laxative to relieve constipation, is contrary to the Ayurvedic philosophy. Instead, the predominant belief is that your body can heal itself of chronic ailments if given half a chance. When it doesn't, it's usually because your body doesn't recognize the problem as a problem, or you have an acute condition which requires more immediate treatment / relief.
The cure is in the recognition of the body’s own internal awareness of itself.
The most powerful form of Ayurvedic healing is a series of treatments called Panchakarma. These are extremely powerful healing therapies that were reserved in ancient times for royalty. Through a combination of different natural therapies, the basal metabolic rate is dramatically decelerated, and awareness is enhanced with techniques such as the "shiro dhara" where warm oil is poured over your forehead for 45 minutes. This treatment calms the mind and disarms the "fight or flight" nervous system response which holds stress and toxins captive in the tissues of your body. This treatment enhances a deeper level of self awareness.
