About Private Sessions:
A private session is meant to analyze your entire life in terms of your physical and mental activities to guide you for changing your life for the better, and for improving yourself at physical and mental levels. It is meant to teach you to improve your quality of life, enhance your energy at physical, mental and sexual levels. You will be guided to lead a fuller and enriched life. However, be ready to make an effort for all this.
We will show you the way, but you must walk yourself. A private session is meant to make you self-reliant and independent to handle your minor physical and mental problems. Get out of a pothole and learn to enjoy each moment of your life.
If you are ready, contact us!
A private session lasts for 90 minutes and with Internet for a week.

Our private sessions are based upon the age-old holistic wisdom of Ayurveda and Yoga. The six dimensions of your being (three each of the body and mind) mutually influence each other and burden of your past makes a cover of darkness on your eternal source of energy. With the traditional methods, we teach you how to get rid of the darkness that makes you physically and mentally unhealthy by causing other blockades in your life. Once these blockades are removed, you feel better and healthier and look beautiful, just like the light from the sun radiates after the wind takes away the cover of dark clouds.
We also offer sessions for short time like for half an hour. These are meant to solve your specific and chronic problems.

We offer retreats twice a year in Germany─ in spring and autumn. Every time, we also treat on special theme and this time it is Ayurvedic geriatrics.
This four days retreat offered twice a year is meant as a break from your daily routine of stress and strain so that you can be completely with yourself and taking care of your self. With different themes, retreat is also meant to teach you practices that you can continue to follow at home. A retreat is not a seminar. It is meant to provide you relaxation and diversion from your routine work and meant to detoxify, rejuvenate and relax you.

In today’s world, the wisdom to prepare oneself for a healthy old age is lacking and that is why we see a rapid increase in senility and other age-related ailments. During this retreat we focus on the theme of a specific lifestyle during your younger years so that each day you invest something in your health-bank for old age.

The four days will include the following:

Methods to strengthen each and every part of your body.
Detoxification and rejuvenating with food and home remedies
Maintaining your self to keep your body and mind active, ‘alive’ and cheerful until your last days.
Safeguarding your beauty and charm also after the youth is gone by.
Preparation of delicious Ayurvedic meals and a party with special rejuvenating drinks.
Yogic and Ayurvedic practices for meaningful, healthy and dynamic life.

Dementia is a gradual loss of cognition and memory and it is spreading at a pandemic scale in the world. Every year, 200 000 new cases of dementia are diagnosed in Germany alone. It is an incurable disorder and causes a great economic and social burden. Experts estimate that by 2030, every third or fourth person would be suffering from Dementia. It is alarming that with such great spread of the disease, who will take care of whom in next 50 years.
In the modern mind-dominated society, we misuse this faculty and we live with the thinking that ‘my mind is my self’. We need to change this fundamental attitude, realise that there is a higher power than the mind, which is our real self and which can give the mind rest and save it from deformation.
In the ancient Vedic wisdom, there are diverse methods to prevent this disorder by ways of strengthening the mind with food, drug and purification (of the mind). Mind is the organiser and coordinator of the senses. We need to strengthen it with right food, breathing and memory promoting remedies. We also need to learn to give it an appropriate rest by orienting ourselves to stop the limitless use of senses to the level of exhaustion.
The present seminar is meant to guide you in simple yogic and Ayurvedic practices to strengthen your mind and give it a regular an appropriate rest by calming down your senses. The wisdom to keep calm and remain unaffected from ups and downs of life is equally essential. The seminar also highlights the lifestyle, diet and home remedies for prevention of dementia.
