What can one of the world’s oldest holistic healing systems teach us about our relationship to ourselves, to the people we love, to our physical and mental health, and to the process of grief?
The Ayurveda of Relationships Conference is an opportunity to dive into these questions, explore them for yourself, and learn helpful methods for self-care and improving your relationships.
Ayurvedic specialists Dr. Robert Svoboda, Dr. Carrie Demers (who is also an MD in internal medicine), Dr. Claudia Welch, and clinical therapist Kathryn Templeton and yoga teachers Shiva Rea and Demetri Velisarius offer their perspectives on how we can live in greater harmony by honoring our internal wisdom and seeing ourselves as the authorities on our own well-being.
In this conference, you’ll experience inspiring lectures and interviews, and an accessible devotional movement practice. Each presenter shares how addressing different aspects of relationships through the lens of ayurveda can lead to a happier and healthier, and more balanced life.
Workshops included:
In On the Ayurveda of Relationships: Becoming Medicine, Dr. Claudia Welch explores how your relationships can be medicine, neutral, or poison and offers wisdom from the ayurvedic texts that will help you show up with integrity in all your relationships.
In Exploring the Relationship Between the Masculine and the Feminine, Dr. Robert Svoboda will teach you how to work with the polarities within yourself so you can relate to others from a solid understanding of who you are.
In Ayurveda and Grief: A Personal Journey, Kathryn Templeton connects the wisdom and practices of ayurveda and the process of grieving and gives you practical ways to support yourself during times of loss.
In Relationship With Self-Healing, Dr. Carrie Demers teaches you how to cultivate self-trust and self-care, connect with your inner guide, build your inner fire, and take your health into your own hands.
In The Value of Pranams, Shiva Rea and her partner, Demetri Velisarius, explain the background and benefits of pranams (prostration practices), including how they can nurture healthy relationships, and then share a simple yet powerful pranam practice that you can do alone or with a loved one.
