Ayurveda Patricia Bednersh

Ayurveda is an ancient medicine born in India thousands of years ago, one of the most ancient systems of natural medicine handed down by man. This system is based on the profound knowledge of our body and relates body, mind, and spirit. Health is considered as a state of equilibrium in which psychological, environmental and physical factors are put on the same level. Ayurveda is not only oriented to physical well-being but also includes the study of philosophy, psychology, research and knowledge of the spirit. In fact, the meaning of the term Ayurveda is "knowledge of life," seeking harmony for the achievement of physical well-being and mental. It would, therefore, be reductive to limit Ayurveda to the study of medicine. We said precisely that philosophy is a fundamental part together with the lifestyle and aims to achieve a complete vision of existence, trying to enter the depth of the true nature of Being Human in relation to his environment, establishing a balance between man as an individual and the Universe.
