Introducing Shivani & her Ayurvedic & Natural Remedies…

3 science of life“Ayurveda, what’s that,” was my thought when I was invited to an Earth Day-Full Moon Evening Retreat featuring yoga, meditation and Shivani Gupta. I participated in the retreat and was introduced to Shivani’s Ayurvedic and Natural Remedies so I am taking this opportunity to introduce you!

Ayurveda (Sanskrit meaning “life-knowledge”) is a system of medicine with historical roots in the Indian subcontinent. A holistic approach rooted in Vedic culture, Ayurveda had a role in early Hinduism which explains its hallowed place in India. The main classical Ayurveda treatises begin with legendary accounts of the transmission of medical knowledge from the Gods to sages, and thence to human physicians. Globalized and modernized practices derived from Ayurveda traditions are a type of complementary or alternative medicine. In the Western world, Ayurveda therapies and practices have been integrated in general wellness applications and in medical use.

Throughout her entire life, her father–a complete health nut–taught her about healthy eating, organic foods, effective supplements, and fortifying the body to have the best health. Through these lessons, she learned the importance of healthy lifestyle choices, nutrition, exercise, prevention, optimism, and self-care. Shivani has been independently studying Ayurveda for over ten years. She planned the Hindu University of America Conference on Ayurveda ten years ago. Today, she is finishing her Ph.D. in Ayurvedic Studies. Today, Shivani is ready to share her knowledge and experience with the world.

Her seminar was fascinating and included a survey which resulted in identification of my constitution—was I vatha (space/air), or was I pitha (fire/water), or was I kaptha (earth/water)? Like most guys I was primarily kaptha. The designation sets into motion various ways to look at our body, mind and consciousness.

Waking up early to start the day with the sun, saying prayers before leaving bed, personal hygiene including a tongue cleanser, drinking water and gargling with warm sesame oil were all presented in the context of living life according to Ayurvedic principles.

The third section dealt with determining which herbs were needed to address people’s health, mobility, flexibility, and pain. With an entrepreneurial flair and apparent passion (she is a vibrant, beautiful and energetic woman) to be the foremost catalyst of conscious living, Shivani launched Fusionary Formulas, an Ayurvedic nutraceutical company, last year. She is the complete source of herbs from diagnosing what is needed, to supplying the needed herbs to monitoring their performance with her clients.

I am grateful to now be aware of Ayurveda and having met Shivani Gupta.
