YOGA, as is most commonly understood in todays world refers actually to Hath YOGA, a set of physical forms of exercise comprising stretches that align and balance the mind, body and soul.

Normally performed on YOGA mats made of highly toxic, chemically infused materials they are largely counter-productive to the very essence of YOGA.

In fact, ayurveda, the science of holistic herbal healing claims that almost 800 grams of toxic chemicals are absorbed by our bodies in a year, due to our exposure to machine made chemically dyed clothing and other materials that our body comes into contact with.

The term Ayurveda derived from its Sanskrit root ayus (life) and ved (knowledge) is the oldest surviving comprehensive medical system in the world with its origins going back some 5000 years. Scripted over a 1000 years ago, the principal compendium Atharvaveda and thereafter Astanga Hridayam along with the Chakra Samhita (internal medicine) and Sushruta Samhita (surgery) form the backbone towards the current practices of its application.

This traditional Hindu system of medicine (all natural) is based on the fundamentals of balance in bodily systems through diet regulation, herbal treatment, and yogic breathing. It is therefore not simply a health care system but a form of lifestyle adopted to maintain perfect balance and harmony within human existence.

Based on the premise that life represents a cohesive presence of the mind (mana), body (sharira), soul (atma) and senses (indriya) all of which revolve around the 5 elements (air, water, fire, earth and ether) that make the constitution of every individual, ayurveda offers an unique blend of science and philosophy that balances the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual components, necessary for holistic health.
