Take The First Step

Personal Coaching

Your coach is a Certified Maharishi AyurVeda Health Coach.

All coaches have extensive training and experience with Maharishi AyurVeda and most are Graduates of the Masters in Maharishi AyurVeda and Integrative Medicine program of Maharishi University of Management.

You may choose how you interact with your coach – phone or online video connection like Skype or Facetime.

Determination of Ayurvedic Body Type

Through an online questionnaire, and discussion with your coach, you will be able to determine your Ayurvedic body-type.

Body Type determination helps you understand your levels of metabolism, and digestive strength, personality characteristics and the disorders you are most prone to by genetic nature and years of habits.

Understanding body-type is an important factor in choosing the diet, lifestyle, and a personalized prevention and wellness approach.

Diet Matched to Body Type

You will be provided with video lessons and supporting handouts on the types of foods, spices and diet that is best matched to each Ayurvedic body-type.

General Lifestyle and Daily Routine

You will receive detailed information regarding the Ayurvedic approach to healthy lifestyle and daily routine including ideal eating, sleeping, exercise, and cleansing routines.

Your coach and video lessons will also describe how daily and seasonal cycles in nature affect our physiology and how to adjust behavior to live in harmony with natural cycles.

Personalized Online Video Lessons

Based on your interests and needs your coach will provide you access to online videos and supporting handouts from the Maharishi AyurVeda Personal Wellness Course by Stuart Rothenberg, MD and Nancy Lonsdorf, MD.

Determination of Balance

Through questionnaires and interaction with your coach you will be better able to determine your current state of balance and imbalance in the underlying divisions of biological intelligence that control all physiological functions.

Personalized Diet and Daily Routine

Personalized diet and daily routine go beyond just matching diet and lifestyle to body-type.

Personalization of diet and lifestyle also takes into account symptoms and imbalances that have developed, digestive strength and the level of need for cleansing and detox.

Personalized Approach to Digestion

Our ability to digest, metabolize and eliminate food properly is as important as what we eat.

In this section you will determine your Ayurvedic “digestive type” through an online questionnaire, discussion with your coach and online video instruction.

Based on this understanding you will be able to choose the foods, spices and Ayurvedic digestion enhancing routines most suitable for you.

Personalized Spice Recommendations

You will receive information on how to match spices to your body-type and state of balance and imbalance.

This knowledge includes personalizing of two types of spice uses:
1. spices for use during meals
2. spices used in “spice-water’ preparations that can be sipped throughout the day for balance and cleansing.

Maharishi AyurVeda Cleansing and Detox

An Ayurvedic determination of your cleansing and detox status detox starts by taking an online questionnaire.

Your coach will help you understand the questionnaire results and suggest online videos and supporting handouts to introduce you to simple, natural, Ayurvedic routines to prevent toxins and blockages from occurring and to help the body remove them if they have developed.

You will also be introduced to the principles of Maharishi Panchakarma® treatments – the most intensive cleansing programs in Ayurveda that are usually offered in an in-residence setting.
