Warmest Season’s Greetings from NAMA

Greetings to All of Our Members,

As we reflect on the past year and prepare to ring in 2022, we’d like to pause in gratitude for NAMA members, volunteers, supporters, and friends. The organization has grown stronger than ever in 2021, as we have welcomed new staff members, board members, and volunteers, all united in our vision to share and promote Ayurveda in the United States. Over the past two decades, NAMA’s core values and mission have not wavered, thanks to the tireless efforts of the Board of Directors and Committee volunteers. There are currently over 70 members volunteering their time on the 15+ committees and subcommittees of the organization. The vibrant and dynamic Ayurvedic community that has come together continues to empower individuals, communities and humanity to enhance health, well-being and self-awareness through Ayurveda.

This year, we are grateful to recognize and honor the dedicated individuals who have volunteered their time, knowledge, and experience to NAMA in the past years and have stepped down in 2021. Their steady leadership and expert guidance have helped shape Ayurveda in the United States and will undoubtedly continue to do so in the years to come.

Warmly,

Jayarajan Kodikannath, BSc., BAMS, AD
