Ayurveda as a Healing Modality
Since beginning my healing service in 1967, I have traveled throughout the world. My journey has been very exciting, as I have discovered many who want to break old patterns and heal their pain. This demonstrates that within the heart of every human being there is a place that knows who they truly are and it continually motivates towards balance.
As a healer in a wholistic practice in California, I worked long hours providing service to others without receiving adequate nurturing for myself. My health began to deteriorate and I became allergic to all concentrated foods and every supplement. This event led me back to my roots in Ayurvedic medicine, an ancient wholistic approach that my grandmother shared with me when I was a young girl. I journeyed to India and studied this ancient method of healing, during which time I gained new insights about myself; my condition healed soon thereafter.
Ayurveda is the science or knowledge of life, the basis of which is self-understanding. By applying certain principals, we learn to recognize our individual uniqueness and discover our particular bodytype, of which there are three main Ayurveda bodytypes and seven mixed bodytypes. A greater awareness is achieved by working with our Prakruti (individual birth constitution) through the use of herbs, diet, and lifestyle changes. Ayurveda does not emphasize dis-ease. Instead, it is a health care system that treats each specific bodytype imbalance and brings it back into true balance, whereby healing spontaneously occurs.
Among the many aspects of Ayurveda are: marma point therapy, yoga and relaxation, herbs, aromatherapy, meditation, lifestyle changes (including pancha karma, a 5 or 7-day cleansing and rejuvenation program), specific diet, mantra therapy, astrology, and gem therapy. Working with one’s Dharma (life purpose) is another important aspect; when health begins to deteriorate we become distracted from our purpose and lose the passion and joy of serving others in our unique way.
A major portion of Ayurveda pertains to self inquiry, opening new doors of perception, taking responsibility for our pain, listening to our body, and creating unlimited possibilities. It requires discipline, continuity, awareness, and direction. This system of healing addresses not only our unique physical characteristics but also addresses the entire body-mind-spirit complex.
Ayurveda is here to join with other forms of medicine and not isolate itself, although it can stand alone as a healing system. Ayurvedic principles can be integrated within any medical system or wholistic modality. It can complement traditional medicine, which offers very little preventive methods and no self health care. It is through individual self health care that many common health problems can be prevented.
Due to Deepak Chopra, M.D., and many other dedicated doctors and teachers who have educated the public, Ayurveda is being sought to enhance the quality of life. As we individually begin to heal and discover the joy of what we can become, greater possibilities for our families and our communities follow. As we heal and become integrated, others see the results and become aware of what is possible.
Today we have many colleges and universities throughout the country, including Sarasota, and many practitioners are being trained to facilitate the growing demand of this powerful science.
Namaste,
Light Miller
