12Ayurveda, the ancient science of life comes to Forte Village with the holistic treatments by master Raj Eka Thapliya

Balancing body, mind and spirit is still possible today thanks to the thousands years Indian discipline known as Ayurveda, a holistic range of personalized wellness treatments including also oil massages and purification rituals.

Harmony between body, mind and spirit is a fundamental aspect for a peaceful and healthy life. Too often, however, there’s this tendency to focus only on responsibilities, duties and challenges of ordinary life, neglecting the search for the inner balance and shifting attention from quality to quantity, choosing productivity above anything else, including your own overall health. It is even more important to remember that body and mind are closely connected and to achieve a true feeling of well-being it is key to take care of both these aspects, recognizing situations of imbalance and acting as possible to fix them.

In a way, Ayurveda, one of the most ancient forms of traditional Indian medicine (the origins of this discipline are closely related to the sacred Vedas, in particular to Rigveda and Atharvaveda, that date back to more than 5000 years ago), offers a holistic approach and concrete simple tools to harmonize the elements of the being (body, mind and spirit), simultaneously treating and preventing the modern world’s diseases, above all stress, anxiety, poor digestion and lack of concentration. Ayurveda techniques include the use of natural treatments, the adoption of specific nutritional principles, a personalized training routine and particular meditative practices.

At the same time, Ayurveda is not only about practical knowledge, but also a philosophical approach to life, to its meaning, and to the human role in the universe. It’s not surprising that the term Ayurveda means science of life (Ayur = life, and Veda = knowledge). Every Ayurvedic treatment can be interpreted as a means to connect the individual to the universe, therefore soothing the tensions that instead originate from his separation from it. The same goes for illness, which is not seen only as a physical disorder, but especially as an imbalance of the entire being, a situation that can be fixed only by establishing harmony between body, mind and spirit again.

Balancing dosha: how do Ayurvedic treatments work?

At the heart of Ayurveda there is the concept of balance, expressed in multiple forms, just like human experience. In order to achieve such balance situation, it is therefore necessary to understand the very nature of mankind and the universe of which we all belong to.

According to this old science of life, the universe is made of five great elements: earth, water, fire, air and ether, or void. These elements combine together into human body, and more generally in all living things, to form three doshas (vital energies): they are Vata (the combination of air and ether), Pitta (fire plus water) and Kapha (earth plus water), and each one determines the physical, mental and spiritual constitution of every individual.

All these elements have specific influences on body and mind. For example, earth represents stability and solidity, while water is associated with fluidity and fertility. Health, according to Ayurveda, is therefore the result of the harmonious balance between these doshas, and so a status of disease is caused by their imbalance.

Therefore, nutrition and personal hygiene, combined with holistic practices like meditation, yoga, massages with medicinal oils, steam baths, herbal therapies and body purification rituals play a crucial role in Ayurveda, as they can help fix imbalances between the different doshas to finally find (and maintain) balance between all the five main elements and their combinations, reducing anxiety and tension and promoting general long lasting wellness.

But the benefits of this ancient discipline go beyond this, in fact Ayurvedic treatments help eliminate toxins accumulated in the body, improving the functionality of the organs with a reduction of waterr etention and an improved blood circulation; Ayurveda also strengthens the immune system, speeds up digestion and improves the absorption of food nutrients. Furthermore, maintaining a good balance between doshas hinders the appearance of the diseases that nowadays too often affect heart and mind: an approach which, from several perspectives, feels completely the opposite to the Western one we’re used to, which instead focuses simply on the treatment of symptoms rather than the prevention of their causes.

Massages, purification therapies, yoga and meditation: heal body and soul with Ayurveda

Ayurveda provides a holistic and integrated approach to physical and mental health, including a vast range of treatments and practices to establish, find back and maintain balance between all the elements we’re made of. Let’s check out the most interesting Ayurvedic treatments to balance these energies.

● Ayurvedic massages (Abhyanga)

Ayurvedic massage (Abhyanga) is one of the most popular practices of the ancient science of life. Using specific medicated oils to balance the different doshas, this kind of massage relaxes muscles, improves blood circulation, promotes toxins elimination, deeply nourishes body and facial skin and promotes a sense of well-being and tranquility.

● Purification therapies (Panchakarma)

Panchakarma is a complete series of five Ayurvedic treatments aiming to cleanse your body from toxins. These treatments include therapeutic vomiting (Vamana), purging (Virechana), enemas (Basti), nasal cleansing (Nasya) and blood therapy (Raktamokshana). These all easily appear like rather intensive practices, requiring the supervision of expert Ayurvedic doctors, but which can give extraordinary results in terms of final detoxification and rejuvenation.

● Ayurvedic diet

Diet is a fundamental aspect of Ayurveda. Each individual has a unique constitution, therefore Ayurvedic cuisine can lead to the preparation of personalized meals based on the specific imbalances to be corrected in the different doshas (for example, to balance Kapha energy again, you should favor dry foods avoiding sweet, salty and acidic aliments, while to balance Pitta you should consume plenty of fresh hydrating foods, like fruit and vegetables). Furthermore, as a general rule, fresh vegetable and seasonal foods should be always preferred over other kinds of foods and the consumption must be practiced following the rules of theso-called mindful eating, staying away from ultra-processed foods rich in useless sugars and fats, but especially dyes and preservatives.

● Yoga and meditation

Yoga, with its asana (poses) and pranayama (breathing techniques), improves flexibility, strength and balance. Meditation, on the other hand, calms your mind, reduces stress, and promotes a deep connection with your inner self. If both integrated into your daily routine, even dedicating only a few minutes to them, these Ayurvedic practices can provide a true contribution into improving your physical, mental and spiritual health.

● Use of medicinal herbs

Ayurveda includes the use of a wide range of medicinal herbs to treat several ailments and symptoms, promoting overall health. These herbs, especially used in the form of powders, pastes, oils or supplements, have specific properties that help balance the doshas. For example, Ashwagandha is known for its toning properties, while Triphala is great for detoxification and improving digestion.

Ayurvedic consultation, a starting point for your personalized journey to inner harmony

Ayurvedic consultation represents the starting point to identify and fix the inner imbalances of each individual, discovering how to achieve one’s personal goals of well-being and harmony through this holistic approach that integrates body, mind and spirit. During this first session will be identified the areas it’s advisable to work on and the best Ayurvedic practices to achieve such objectives.

Abhyanga, find again your body and mind balance with this special massage

Abhyanga is a complete Ayurvedic massage which, through a warm mixture of specific medicated oils chosen according to each one’s specific issues, aims to harmonize the needs of the spirit with the needs of the body. The treatment is performed with slow and deep movements which improve circulation and muscle relaxation, help to eliminate toxins and promote a good and positive feeling of deep well-being and renewed vitality.

Neerabhyangam, purification and wellness with a lymphatic draining massage

Neerabhyangam is an Ayurvedic treatment particularly effective in stimulating lymphatic drainage, therefore improving circulation and promoting purification of the body. The massage helps to eliminate toxins and metabolic waste, the main causes of water retention and cellulite, improving a feeling of lightness and purity and circulation in the lower limbs.

Pindasweda, deep relaxation with the medicinal herbs

Pindasweda is one of the oldest treatments in the world, which involves the use of particular silk or cotton bags filled with heated medicinal herbs. Once applied to the skin, and used in specific massages, these herbs bags help (thanks to the combination of heat and active ingredients) to relieve muscle tension, improve blood circulation and give a profound sense of relaxation and well-being, both for body and mind.

Shirodara (four hands treatment), physical and mental relaxation with oils flow

Shirodara treatment is a unique experience which consists of dripping a continuous flow of warm medicated oil onto your forehead, in the area between the eyebrows. This treatment, usually combined with a traditional Ayurvedic massage and performed by four hands, promotes a feeling of deep peace and physical relaxation, soothing the tensions in your mind and relieving stress, thus significantly improving the quality of your sleep.

MuriAbhyangam, flexibility and energy for your joints

MuriAbhyangam is a preventive discipline which, performing specific movements, helps to fortify and relax the cartilage of joints, soothing muscles and joint tensions and helping to treat traumatic, rheumatic, respiratory, circulatory, and psychosomatic diseases.

Marmabhyangam, a complete balance with the massage of marma points

Marmabhyangam is a massage that focuses on 107 marma points, considered as the points of meeting between the energy and the material. These influence both the chakras (the seven energy centers located in your body with the purpose of collecting, metabolizing and finally releasing energy outwards) and the doshas; therefore, consequently, they’re the fundamental factors of physical, mental and spiritual health. In fact, the Marmabhyangam massage works by harmonizing the body’s rhythms with those of nature, preventing the onset of physical and psychological disorders and promoting balance and vitality.

Meditation (Spiritual, Mantra, Mindfulness, Transcendental), check your own body and mind bond now in the present moment

Ayurvedic meditation is an art that aims to unify the needs of mind and body in a status of full presence to the present. With multiple kind of techniques, such as spiritual meditation, mantras, mindfulness and transcendental meditation, this practice teaches how to focus attention on yourself and feel sensations and emotions that otherwise would be lost, contributing to the creation of states of imbalance and tension, and so overall illness. Mastering the meditative practice allows you to become fully aware of the present, helping you to live with greater awareness and serenity.

Tibetan Mantra, energetic harmony with the auditory massage with standing bells

Tibetan standing bell massage is an ancient Buddhist practice dating back over two millennia, based on the vision of the human body as a musical instrument, which if perfectly tuned produces frequencies and energy waves capable of causing pleasure and well-being. Using the energy waves produced by the sound of the bell, this massage aims to harmonize the internal energetic vibrations, which are often out of rhythm, especially in situations of strong tension for both body and mind or emotional stress, and so it makes possible to rediscover a status of perfect harmony and resonance in synergy with the universe.

ForteVeda Ritual, a personalized and unforgettable ritual for your wellness

Las tbut not least, the personalized and tailored ritual created by the master Raj Eka Thapliya which, by combining different Ayurvedic techniques, aims to offer a complete experience of well-being and rejuvenation designed specifically for you, of course based on the problems identified and the goals set on the initial consultation.
