Course Curriculum
What previous students have said...
"It has been quite a journey but I actually feel I am coming into my true calling. Having the philosophical foundations is something I hold dear to my quest."
"The Gita and the gunas are definitely areas I didn't fully grasp in my yoga teacher trainings so I enjoyed the refresher. I loved the self-inquiry questions."
"I loved hearing the synopsis of the Mahabharata so I finally have the backstory to the Gita - Yay!"
"Angela has the gift of making this ancient practice modern and relatable."
"I see how the doshas fit into my dharma; how my dharma archetypes are reflected in my life's story."
"My favorite part was the live calls! It was so comforting to hear from a community of students, a lot of whom were in the same position as me with being newer to Ayurveda. It was reassuring and encouraging to hear how others were contemplating with similar questions - especially when it came to discussing dharma. It told me that we're all on this journey together!"
"My favorite part of the course was the zoom calls! My second favorite part was exploring the Bhagavad Gita, especially over the zoom call. All of a sudden, I could see the relevance of this text to my life. The use of the text was really well explained and I found that reading it in small bite-sized pieces was great. Awareness of seva and dharma has given me a lot to meditate over and I’m using it to guide my home practice and beyond."
"I loved it all so much! My favorite parts would probably have to be either learning about the Ayurvedic basic principles or reading the verses from the Bhagavad Gita. Reading those verses reminded me of the importance of daily study. Angela does an amazing job of teaching the importance of being gentle with yourself. She breaks down Ayurveda to make it more comprehensible and gives encouraging advice on how to simply transition into a more mindful way of living. I love how she makes Ayurveda accessible to people in all aspects of their lives and ensures her students that this practice is not all or nothing. Our lives are constantly changing and our relationships with our Ayurvedic practices will change too and that is okay!"
