Kaya Kalpa

Kaya Kalpa is the ultimate mind-body healing experience by detoxifying and
rejuvenating the body, restoring balance and well-being in all level.  
Ayurveda is the most ancient healing system on the earth. Because of its
Mind-Body holistic approach, it’s becoming more and more relevant to the
modern men then ever.
According to Ayurveda, our body is an expression of consciousness.
On the physical level,it is made up of the same universal ingredients as
the five elements: space, air, fire, water, and earth.

In order to sustain life, we are constantly exchanging and metabolizing
these elements through food, water and air. When our Agni (Digestive
Fire- Digestive Enzyme) is weak and cannot digest food completely,
in result, undigested toxins create imbalance on the physical level, and
undigested experiences, unprocessed and unresolved emotion
creates imbalances and stagnation on the mental level. 
Panchakarma is a thorough and deep cleansing process used to eliminate
these toxins and to restore health, immunity, vitality and longevity.

Once the body is clean, and channels are open, Dr. Verma applies Yoga
Therapy with his unique spiritual techniques of Sound therapy (Nada)
to dissolve the deep rooted and long seated Kleshas (Mental and
Emotional Traumas) which are the result of past Sanskaras
(conditioning). This therapy is an initiation in spiritual guidance to
 experience and realize our true self; each participant receives his/her
unique Sadhana (spiritual practice) individually in accordance to
his/her own unique mind-body being.

Ayurveda- The Ancient knowledge of “happy, healthy and long life”

Ayurveda is one of the oldest natural holistic scientific healing systems on Earth,
and has a long, well documented history of prevention and curing of diseases.
Thousands of years prior to pre-historic time, in the Himalayan Valley, this know
ledge was perceived and understood by Rishies, “the seers of wisdom”, through
their higher consciousness.

From that time, this Divine knowledge was transmitted orally from one millennia
to another, from one generation to another, in the form of melodious songs and
folklore. It is a beautiful stream of eternal wisdom, flowing as Santana Dharma,
all the way from the most ancient Indus Valley civilizations such as Mohenjo-Daro
and Harappa to the modern Indian subcontinent and the rest of the world. Now,
this traditional healing art, after having been scientifically researched for
hundreds of years, is available in different classical texts, written in Sanskrit,
translated into many languages and taught in different universities and medical
colleges in India and abroad.

The word Ayurveda consists of two Sanskrit roots, Ayur - meaning life and
Veda - meaning science, so Ayurveda means: “Science of Life”.

Ayurveda, as its meaning suggests – is the science of life and longevity, not just
a medical system in the conventional sense for the curing of disease, but a
complete way of life, which teaches us how to maintain and protect health,
how to create psychosomatically well immune offspring’s , how to prevent and
cure disease, and how to prolong life in a happy and healthy way.

Ayurveda is truly a complete holistic natural healing system, which explains the
way in which the macrocosm (Universe) mirrors the microcosm (All living beings)
and how they influence each other. Ayurveda treats man as a whole (holistically),
- combining body, mind and soul. Ayurveda explains disease as disharmony
between body, mind and consciousness, and health as harmony and balance
between them.

Ayurveda explains in detail how each thought and emotion influences our
physiology and how different qualities of energy levels in our internal organs
can affect and alter our mind and emotions. Ayurveda is truly a  Mind-Body
health care system  which not only describes the mind-body connection but also
prescribes the different natural methods to reintegrate it.

Ayurveda gives us the practical knowledge of how disharmony occurs, and how
to reestablish harmony and thus restore balance and health

Ayurveda uses purely natural methods including healthy, wholesome food and
life-style, natural herbs, oils and aromas as well psychic and spiritual methods
such as healing stones and gems, primordial sound, yoga, breathing exercise
(Pranayama) and meditation.

Ayurveda has simple, useful tips for the layman to help him keep fit
through healthy diet, healthy life style and balanced and relaxed
behavior. It also contains more detailed clinical knowledge for doctors,
healers and other health care professional.

Ayurveda, Yoga and Tantra

Ayurveda, Yoga and Tantra are all related to the same knowledge which was
revealed by the same group of Rishis in the same Himalayan region of India.

Ayurveda is the healing branch of Yoga and Tantra. Tantra and Yoga are the
spiritual aspects of Ayurveda.

Yoga is far more then asana or exercise as we see in the West.

Yoga helps to raise our narrow, egoistic, individual self to the level where
we can experience the vastness of higher consciousness.

Tantra gives us the various practical techniques of meditation to transcend
our mind and negative emotions. Tantra is far more then the mere sexual
practices which are now popular in the West. This aspect reflects only one
small branch of Tantra. Tantra is a complete system of human development
that can help us to improve all of our perspectives and awareness of life.
Tantric practices include all sensory therapy including: Sound , Mantra,
Color, Yantra, Aroma , Chakra Healing, different types of body work ,
Marma and meditations.

Yogic and Tantric practices require a healthy body and mind.

Ayurveda provides this necessary tool for achieving the goal of Tantra and
Yoga.

Fundamentals of Ayurvedic Mind-Body type

 According to Ayurveda the universe and all living beings are made up of
five gross elements: space, air, fire, water and earth. These five elements
are the contents of cosmic consciousness, five basic energies and the five
different states of matter which have manifested through evolution from
the Purusha (soul of the Universe and male energy) and Prakrati
( Primordial matter and female energy ). These elements are common in
both living and non living things, organic and non organic existence.
They are everywhere either in gross or subtle form.

These five elements are represented in the body and divided into
three basic mind-body organizations, or constitutions called “Dosha”.
They are Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

Vata - is a principle of movement and energy, Prana, vital force behind
the nervous system which governs all the movement and the functions of
the body and mind. In general, catabolic principle.

Pitta - principle of metabolism, which governs not only the digestive
functions, but also our mental capacity to digest, absorb and assimilate
thoughts, ideas and  concepts and transform them into pure knowledge
and intelligence. Pitta also governs our body temperature.

Kapha - principle of comprehension and growth. Governs the structure
 of the body, through cell division and growth of the tissues. It also
governs our emotions like love, compassion, etc. in general anabolic
principle.

These 3 mind-body principles govern all our anatomical, physiological,
pathological and psychological functions. Ayurveda believes that as
long as they are balanced and in a  state of harmony, a person is
healthy and happy.

Disharmony and aggravation in the Dosha is the main cause of
discomfort and dis-ease in the body and mind.

Each of us possess these 3 life factors - Vata, Pitta and Kapha in our
psycho-physical makeup. Vata gives us energy, vitality and motivation,
Pitta gives us warmth and the capacity to transform substance and
assimilate it in the body while Kapha makes up the structure of our
body and emotions, our flesh, bones all bodily fluids.

Each of us has a unique genetic combination of these Doshas, which
are transmitted from parents to offspring.  At the time of
fertilization, the combination and domination of one or two Doshas
from the sperm in man and ova in woman, determine our
psycho-somatic individual constitution, which is called “Prakrati”.
This domination of Doshas greatly influences the characteristic
feature of the embryo throughout his life. If Vata is predominant
then the person is called Vata type. This follows for Pitta and
Kapha as well. According to permutation and combination there
are 7 different body types - 3 dual types (Vata-Pitta, Pitta-Kapha,
Kapha-Vata), 3 mono types (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), and one triple
Tridosic type (Vata-Pitta-Kapha).

To understand ourselves as a whole it is very crucial to know
our body type because our health and illness, emotional responses,
diet, life style, behavior, relationship, are all inherent in our
unique body type. In Ayurvedic diagnosis it is very crucial to know
what type of person has the disease. What type of disease the
person has is a secondary consideration. This constitutional approach
is the essence of Ayurveda.  Each body type has some specific
characteristics according to the domination of doshas.

Some of them are as follows

Characteristics of Vata type

\    Light thin body, narrow wrist, shoulder and pelvic.

\    Walk fast, talk fast, and perform every activity fast.

\    Irregular habits, hunger and digestion.

\    Light sleep and tends to insomnia.

\    Low stamina, tires easily.

\    Excitable, hyperactive mind.

\    Learns fast, but also forgets fast

\    Tends to have constipation and pain in the body.

\     Tends to worry and be anxious.

Characteristics of Pitta type

\    Medium body frame.

\    Sharp hunger and thirst, strong digestion.

\    Tends to have acidity, diarrhea or skin problem.

\    Suffer more in sun and hot weather. Tends to have hair
           problems, premature graying and baldness.

\    Sharp intellect and understanding.

\    Tends toward anger, irritation, impatience and jealousy.

Characteristics of Kapha Type

\    Big body frame, tends to gain weight fast, slow to loose it.

\    Slow digestion, low metabolism.

\    Slow walk, slow talk, and tranquil relaxed personality.

\    Smooth cool and oily skin.

\    Tolerant, forgiving, compassionate nature.

\    Tends to over attachment and possessiveness

All body types have their negative and positive characteristics and
attributes. The positive nature exhibits itself spontaneously when
they are in balance. Negative characteristics show  up in the
imbalanced Dosha

 What are the causes of imbalance?

Improper unwholesome food (Ahar), life style (Vihar), behavior(Achar),
thinking and relationship(Vichar), aggravate the Dosha and this aggravated
Dosha causes imbalance to the Agni (digestive fire) - the power of digestion.
This impaired digestion cannot digest food properly and produces toxins,
which are called Ama. This Ama is an undigested residue of food, which
clogs the energy flow on both physical and mental levels and creates
disharmony-discomfort in body-mind. This is one of the main causes of many
types of diseases. In Ayurveda, proper and balanced digestion is the key to
health, vitality and longevity.

 Diagnosis and treatment in Ayurveda

In Ayurvedic diagnosis, the physician diagnoses the whole personality,
the physical, mental and spiritual health simultaneously. Pulse diagnosis,
one of the most important examinations in Ayurveda, allows the physician
to determine the  physical diagnosis of the body type, state of the
physical and energy level of the internal organs and Dosha constitution –
its balance or disharmony.

The first objective in Ayurvedic treatment is to remove the root cause of
the disease by correcting the improper food habits and life style.
Secondly, to eliminate the Ama, the toxin from the deep tissue, Ayurveda
offers a purification program called Panchakarma.    

 What is Panchakarma?

Panchakarma (five purification methods) is a very unique therapy which

includes relaxing herbal oil massages, steam baths and different kinds of

cleansing herbal enemas etc. Panchakarma is a rejuvenation program which

balances the Doshas and Agni and provides deep relaxation for the body-mind.

Many scientific studies have shown that Panchakarma balances biochemistry,

improves cardio-vascular risk factors, reduces stress and free radicals,

strengthens immunity, increases flexibility and retards the aging process.

During a two week to one month long Panchakarma package program a person

easily goes into deep relaxation as rhythmically warm oil Abhiyanga

(Ayurvedic Massage) is introduced to his entire body. The invigorating and

revitalizing effects of rubbing special herbal oil in a specific pattern of hand

movements generates “Agni” or metabolic fire which melts, dissolves, softens,

loosens and draws out toxins from deep tissues. Following this, a penetrating

and soothing herbal steam bath “Swedana” is applied which liquidifies the toxins

and gently draws them out from the body, thereby relaxing the muscles and joints.

 For deep relaxation, removing mental stress and related problems like insomnia,

migraine etc., Shirodhara is a treatment consisting of a soothing stream of

warm oil poured on the forehead (third eye area). Nowadays Shirodhara is well

known for its extremely tranquil effects on the nervous system, hyperactive mind

and producing a meditative bliss.

There are some other cleansing treatments which can be applied according

to the individual’s constitutional body type including:  Basti “Ayurvedic

Enemas” which remove toxins from the colon. Nasya- a rejuvenating facial

massage is followed by herbal nose drops which open the nasal passages,

increases the intake of oxygen and Prana, the vital energy that gives us

clarity of perception and lightness, as well as easing headaches

and migraines.

 Ayurvedic bodywork that includes different kinds of massages with a

variety of aromatic essential oils or herbal oils is known as "Ayurvedic

Neuromuscular Therapy" which can be a part of Panchakarma. 

This therapy is a unique type of body work performed on the junction

points of Body - Mind – Consciousness. It is known as Marma and helps

to release life-long physical and emotional traumas, which are trapped

in our bodies as unresolved memories. 

Ayurveda can help many types of chronic and incurable diseases, such as 

asthma, bronchitis, allergy, skin problems, fatigue, diabetes, obesity,

Stress, memory-disorders, arthritis, gout, insomnia, sexual-problems,

impotency, sterility, habitual abortion, etc.

Ayurvedic therapy can be easily combined with conventional treatment

as an adjuvant therapy.
