Ayurvedic Vacation

Planning your next vacation? How about an Ayurvedic vacation! According to Forbes Traveler.com, “a recent McKinsey Report for the Confederation of Indian Industry says that medical tourism from the West could grow at an estimated 30 percent a year.” This does include surgery and the like, but also included are Ayurvedic treatments. We Americans seem to be catching on! Yeah for us!

So where can you go to enjoy these Ayurvedic spa treatments in India? According to the Forbes article, a few noteworthy places to consider are:

• Divya Spa at the Leela Kovalam Beach Resort
• The Taj Ayurveda Center in Calicut
• Agastya Ayurveda Garden Resort
• The Coconut Lagoon in Kumarakom

Currently, I am working on a guide to Ayurvedic spas here in the states. I hope to have it posted on my web site soon. I’ll let you know when I have it up.

Until then, have fun planning your next vacation, and be sure to send me pictures!

Namaste,

Listen up!

Folks! If you are taking any Ayurvedic medicines, Click here - this is a ”must-read” and very important article. I encourage you to read it from beginning to end.

While it may appear at first that I am trying to tell you that Ayurvedic treatments are dangerous, what I’m actually trying to convey and encourage is the use of good common sense.

1. Like any form of medicine, it’s never a good idea to self medicate. Please see a practitioner.
2. If you travel to India, once again, do not self medicate. Don’t purchase Ayurvedic remedies that promise one thing or another, and trust the package/labeling. While India is an amazing country, their laws governing food and medicine are very different from ours.
3. If you do see a practitioner, find out where your medicine comes from!!! These days, it’s not all that hard to have a practitioner prepare you a remedy made from herbs grown here (In most cases).
4. Pay attention to the list of products in this article. Be sure you are not taking any of them!!!

Ayurveda is an extremely effective method of healing. But used improperly, it can also be harmful. Please, please, please…. pay attention to the remedies you purchase. Not all medicines are created equal!

To your health
