Course Description:
While we may think of psychotherapy as a relatively new field, dating back perhaps to the mid-1800's, ancient psychotherapeutic references are abundant in Āyurvedic texts reaching back as far as the Buddha and were a core part of his teachings. The three earliest compendiums of Ayurveda divide medical interventions into 8 specific fields including psychotherapy. As it is turning out, much of the cutting edge advances in thinking and treatment in the field are beginning to align and validate much of what was taught in 400 BC in ancient India!Our minds, incredibly complex, are too often seen as a science project and not as individual works of art; reflecting our feelings, thoughts, and emotional states.

They act as the lenses through which we experience both our world and ourselves. Psychology, the study of the mind, is most useful when seen as an art form. Specifically the art of creating a healthy, happy and fulfilling life, full of wonder and joy. When we see the art in today's psychiatry, psychology, psychotherapy, psychosomatics, we see how we ourselves function beyond being just computational objects. Individual expressions that have undergone stressors that then move us, at least in our minds and often in our social minds, into pathologies and diseases.

This is, oftener than we like to acknowledge, exaggerating our distressing situations into what we imagine them to be: full blown pathologies. Or at least experiencing them that way till they become that. We forget that the answers lie in changing our relationship with our minds into one of love, compassion, kindness and equanimity rather than the fear and loathing we usually harbor towards it and that causes us to keep stuffing it with thoughts, ideas, beliefs and tasks so we never have to be alone with it. And this is what is also missing in our relationships with each other.

Ayurveda teaches us that healing our own minds is actually a service to our world. At Registration, please enter that you are a NAMA Member and your Membership number. You will receive a discounted price and PACE credits for attending the session live or by completing each session within 2 weeks of that session and submitting that you have done so.

Course Objectives::
•Learn about helpful herbs, formulas, treatments. Explore the basic structure of Ayurvedic Psychiatry: the world of nature's apothecary.
•Learn how to seek divine intervention through powerful mantras, ceremonies, refined instincts of the heart, and service to others, as the divine Psychology.
•Learn how we use counseling to invoke our higher thinking processes, the positive ones that pacify our emotional body and activate emotional intelligence, through Sattavajaya Cikitsa, the Victory of Truth.
•Learn how to use all limbs of yoga as Ayurvedic psychosomatic practices to refine our relationship with our bodies and physiology as therapy for the Mind.

Course Description:
Women’s health is a vast topic that can be confusing and overwhelming. There is a glut of information. However, much of it is conflicting. Compounding this is the fact that research in women’s health is underfunded (according to the NIH) and doctors tend to dissect you into a collection of your parts, rather than seeing you as a whole person. It can be downright frustrating to get to the root causes of your symptoms and imbalances so that you can actually begin to feel better. In this 12-week course, you will learn to listen to and interpret your body’s messages, understand yourself and your relationship to nature, and discover the root causes of your imbalances and how to address them so that you can feel better in your body, and live a more empowered, nourished, and fulfilled life.

Course Objectives::
1. Explain the underlying causes of hormone imbalance and women’s health problems.
2. Understand the functions of various hormones and their relationship to the dhatus and ojas.
3. Understand and recommend diet, lifestyle practices, and herbs, and how they are best applied to heal the dhatus and srotas affected by various women’s health issues.
4. Support healthy menstruation, fertility, aging, and a graceful transition through menopause and beyond.
