Rolling Back the Years

 

One of the most important aspects of Maharishi Ayurveda is the special revitalization therapy, using the techniques traditionally known as Panchakarma. This therapy involves a combination of methods, including specific herb and oil massage techniques, heat therapies and gentle purification procedures. This deeply relaxing therapy acts by gently cleansing the body's tissues of accumulated impurities. These impurities prevent the free flow of intelligence in the body by obstructing channels of circulation and communication.

Research has shown that this procedure does actually reverse age-regulated deteriorations in physical functioning and has confirmed its value for both physical and mental health. Findings include improvements in: energy, vitality and stamina, appetite and digestion, musculo-skeletal health, sleep patterns and mood, memory, alertness and intelligence, also: reductions in anxiety and depression, plus: people feel much younger generally.

Defeating Toxic Build-Up

 

Revitalization therapy through MAV holds great hope for the prevention of many serious illnesses of middle and later life. We often forget that conditions such as cancer, heart disease and various degenerative disorders do not crop up overnight. They are usually the result of years of gradually accumulating imbalances or toxic and waste materials in the body - accumulations that can be effectively and thoroughly prevented by regular Panchakarma treatments.

Food for Thought

 

MAV includes a complete and unique science of nutrition, recognising the importance of the individual's capacity for digesting and assimilating food and providing a valuable understanding of differences in dietary requirements according to age, constitutional type and individual health needs. When you have Maharishi Ayurveda revitalisation therapy you will receive instruction and individual advice on this important topic.

The MAV approach to healthy eating takes account of the influence of the seasons and time of day and teaches how to get in touch with the body's real needs regarding food intake and also how to achieve maximum satisfaction and enjoyment from the food we eat. The focus is not merely on what to eat, but rather on when and how to eat.

The body's powerful weight and appetite regulating mechanisms are able to function normally. The MAV approach to effortless weight-loss can help everyone achieve healthier, more enjoyable eating. For those who are too heavy, weight reduction is just an added albeit welcome advantage.

Perfect Balance

 

MA herbal preparations make use of the balancing power of the whole plant or combination of plants in order to promote health without side-effects. The classical Ayurvedic texts list many hundreds of Rasayanas -sophisticated herbal and mineral preparations that support immunity and particular aspects of health.

However, two of these are particularly effective. Their formulas had been lost for centuries before being restored under the name Maharishi Amrit Kalash (MAK).

Recent laboratory research conducted by Dr H Sharma, Professor Emeritus, University of Ohio in the USA, found that MAK is a uniquely powerful anti-oxidant that scavenges all known free radicals. It also has been shown to help maintain the efficacy of the immune and circulatory systems and heart health.

Other research has confirmed that MAK has wide-ranging benefits for well-being and leads to improvement in perceptual abilities that tend to deteriorate with age.

Inner Intelligence

 

The Maharishi Ayurveda approach to health is based on intelligence. When the mind and body function normally they are using their full inherent intelligence. When discomfort or illness occurs it is necessary to re-enliven that inner intelligence. The more fundamental the level at which your inner intelligence is enlivened the more comprehensive the benefits.

All Maharishi Ayurveda treatments and products are aimed at enlivening your inner intelligence rather than removing discomfort or disease. Very profound knowledge of this inner intelligence is contained in the Vedic tradition and Maharishi Ayurveda puts top priority on faithfully carrying out the requirements of this subtle tradition.
