What Is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, often called the “Science of Life,” is an ancient healing system from India that offers a complete approach to health, wellbeing, and harmony. Rooted in the same Vedic tradition as yoga, Ayurveda teaches us that true wellness comes from balancing the body, mind, and spirit — and living in harmony with nature.
During your 200 hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh, you’ll also be introduced to Ayurvedic principles as part of your holistic education. Ayurveda understands that every individual is unique, with their own constitution or Prakriti — a combination of three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) that shape our physical and mental tendencies. Through personalized diet, daily routines, herbal remedies, and mindful living, Ayurveda helps restore balance when we feel out of alignment.
Ayurveda teaches us that true health is not merely the absence of disease but a state of complete harmony between body, mind, and spirit. In our 10-day Ayurveda module, included in your 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Course, you will learn how to recognize the subtle signs of imbalance before they manifest into illness, and how to restore harmony through natural, time-tested methods. This is not theory alone — you will experience these practices daily, from herbal teas that support your constitution to mindful eating techniques that aid digestion and energy flow.
Our 200 hour yoga teacher training course in Rishikesh blends these timeless Ayurvedic insights with the depth of traditional yoga practice. You’ll learn how yoga postures, breathing practices, and meditation work alongside Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle choices to prevent illness, increase energy, and promote inner peace.
This union of yoga and Ayurveda is what makes our 200 hour yoga teacher training course in India truly holistic. You don’t just learn postures or philosophy — you learn how to live in alignment with your body’s natural rhythms, the environment, and the deeper essence of life itself.
Come and discover the art of living in balance — only at Ishavasyam Yoga School.
