1 aayukshetram home for wellness & healing

2 Aayukshetram (origin: Sanskrit Aayu + Kshetram ) means Temple of Life. It is a boutique Ayurvedic wellness and healing center, nestled by lush green beautiful hills on all sides, away from the sounds of urban environment, bestowing absolute peace and tranquility to all its habitants the people, birds and animals. We are housed by traditional Kerala style cottages & rooms, elegantly and mindfully built with ancient science that consciously integrates natural elements such as light, wind, space and aesthetics. The center provides in-house Ayurvedic treatment facilities and serves pure vegetarian cuisine cooked in traditional method, with love. With ashram-like living it offers solitude and tranquility allowing each of us to look and listen within. The wellness programs are designed after discovering specific needs, purpose and possibilities from thorough assessment with the patient. Each patient is a person with specific need for healing and harmony among the body, mind and soul. To heal the self, one must know the soul and allow it to harmonize body+mind. Healing from within, in a sustained state of life requires full understanding of inner life by not only the patient but also the doctor, for which we believe, the partnership between the patient and doctor is critically important. At Aayukshetram, you will have an unique opportunity to discover your balance and heal from within.

3 Ayurveda Ayurveda is not a religion, it is the oldest Indian medicinal system that views body, mind and the soul as not separate parts of human being but one integrated whole. Ayurveda in Sanskrit is derived from the roots 'Ayus' and 'Vid', respectively meaning 'life' and 'knowledge'. Ayus groups the body, the sense organs, the mind and the soul. The Vedas are ancient Hindu books of knowledge that are said to have been divinely revealed to the sages of India many thousand years ago. They contain within them the knowledge, the rhythm and the structure of the universe as well as the secrets of sickness and health. There are four Vedas Rig veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda. Ayurveda is part of the fourth Veda, which includes detailed dissertations (often written in verse form in order to be memorized easily) on the treatment of the sick using mantras, herbs and potions. Detailed medical information is combined with spiritual and philosophical advice on how to live a healthy and purposeful life. According to vedic philosophy, human lives will be filled with purpose when they strive to fulfill their full potential. This cannot be achieved without health on a basic level. All modern Ayurvedic practitioners work in accordance with traditions belief and practices. Our prakruti is determined by the balance of the three vital energies in the body, known as the three dosha. These are known by their Sanskrit names as vata, pitta and kapha. Each individual prakruti is controlled by its three dosha to different degrees. Usually there is one or two dominant dosha. It is not that easy to determine a constitution but a good practitioner will be able to do. This is mandatory before any treatment as the same ailment can be treated totally differently from one prakruti to another. There is never a standard procedure for a treatment, it all depends on the constitution and the aim is to bring the original constitution of the individual back into balance.
