The Dinacharya Institute
din,
in Sanskrit, means Day or
Daily. acharya, means learned teacher, and charya
refers to the Practiced Wisdom through Routine. Dinacharya is the ayurvedic term for wisdom in knowing
a lifestyle to live each day well. We will teach you how to navigate your life,
at whatever pace you choose, to bring good living, health and wellness into
your life and the lives of those around you.
Ayurveda (eye-your-vay-dah) is a timeless science that
transcends cultures, religions, time and modernity. Practiced continuously on
the planet for the past 5000 years and originating in South Asia, Ayurveda offers the brain, mind, heart, and soul a
path back to natural living, among modern life.
Does your soul urge you to
live more naturally and leave the artificial constructs of our time?
Dinacharya teaches how. Led
by experienced clinicians, our authentic courses on ayurveda, seminars and workshops at The
Dinacharya Institute combine
practical instruction on CAM (complementary and alternative medicines),
guidance on practice setup, clinical supervision, and self-care with the
wisdom of ayurveda.
Our work focuses in four activities:
1. the Ayurveda Wellness Coach training course (8 weekends, 500 hours of training)
2. seminars at conferences and medical schools, by invitation only
3. participation in policy making and community organizing groups in India and in the US
4. education through media: journal articles, interviews, films, and publications
We focus on quality
of instruction and practical application by students in the US upon
graduation. Instructors are vaidyas (ayurvedic physicians) and MDs who have been
teaching with Integrity in New York City for years.
This is the only course in
the United States that is led by a licensed MD board-certified in holistic
medicine, trained in medicinal chemistry, pharmacology and herbs, and in
international public health at Harvard, who has directed research, education
and holistic practice at a NYC hospital.
