Wisdom of Healing Details
Our First Mind-Body Healing Workshop in Europe!
“The guiding principle of the ayurveda is the interconnection of all things. We aren’t simply an isolated collection of atoms and molecules, but are an inseparable part of the infinite field of intelligence. From this holistic perspective, health isn’t merely the absence of disease ― it is a higher state of consciousness that allows vitality, well-being, creativity, and joy to flow into our experience.”
–David Simon, M.D., Chopra Center Co-founder
