Ayurveda

Ayurveda is a beautiful art and a logical science of healing created five thousand years ago and perfected over the centuries in the ancient texts. Ayurveda uses yoga, herbs, common spices, diet and lifestyle to bring the energies of the body back to a state of balance from illness.

About Joseph

I received my training in Ayurveda from Dr. Vasant Lad, a world reknowned Ayurvedic expert who is director of the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, NM. He has over 50 years experience as an Ayurvedic practitioner.

Before studying ayurveda, I earned my bachelor's in mathmematics and computer science at Harvard University. I continued to study the Bengali language and the poetry of Rabindranath Tagore for ten years. Frank Cook initiated me to the world of plants and Ayurveda.

In addition to Ayurveda I am currently developing a public health project for clean water in Bangladesh with Professor Lex Van Geen of Columbia University.

Summer of 2007

For the summer of 2007, Rose Ortiz and I will be traveling the east coast. Rose offers a background in Yoga, AyurYoga and integration of yoga with Marma therapy (Ayurvedic acupressure points akin to the Chinese system).
