The Ayurveda Practitioner Association (APA), based in the United Kingdom, is hosting the following two events:
APA Webinar: A deeply integrative approach to Women's Health & Hormones in Ayurveda
with Dr. Claudia Welch
Saturday, January 28, 2023 | 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm GMT
While the classics of Ayurveda do not directly name hormones, they offer an elegant lens through which we can understand them. We plan to briefly outline this lens, consider three possible categories of causes of hormonal imbalance, and explore what constitutes a truly integrative approach to all causes.
APA Workshop: Understanding Srotas & their clinical application
with Dr. Aakash Kembhavi
Saturday, March 11, 2023 | 11:30 am - 3:30 pm GMT
Improve your Ayurvedic clinical skills by deepening your understanding of the Ayurvedic concept of Srotas (‘body channels’ or ‘channels of circulation’) and its application to different health conditions. During this interactive workshop, Dr Aakash Kembhavi will take a deep dive into each of the 13 Srotamsi, including the origin, passage, opening and functioning of each srota, along with the signs of vitiation by the three Doshas.
