Acharya Shunya
"For thousands of years, Acharya Shunya’s family has shown humanity a joy-filled path to abiding health of body, mind, and spirit. Every day can become a health-protecting and health-reclaiming day simply by the art with which it is lived.           
Learning Ayurveda’s lifestyle wisdom in a patient manner, by allowing it to soak into your soul over time, acts as a weed destroyer. The knowledge contained in this wisdom has the power to recondition your consciousness and take you beyond your negative habits so that you can slowly and steadily transcend your outdated, default coping strategies that no longer serve you, and learn new ways of self-care.
As you learn Ayurveda’s vast lifestyle wisdom, you will have the opportunity to open the door to a lifetime of masterful living. You will emerge from this course with a solid foundational understanding of how to carve out a new way of living in greater harmony with yourself, nature, and all other beings."
