<<Ayurveda is a healing gift to us from the ancient enlightened Vedic culture. According to astronomical records in ancient Vedic texts, the Vedic system, including Ayurveda, was in practice before 4000 BC….
Ayurveda has gone through several stages of development in its long history. It spread East along with Indian culture into Indonesia and Indochina; and to the West to the Greeks, who developed a similar form of natural medicine. Buddhists added many new insights to Ayurveda and took it along with their religion to many different lands. Ayurveda became the basis of the healing traditions of Tibet, Sri Lanka and Burma. It also influenced Chinese medicine. Many great Buddhist sages, like Nagarjuna, perhaps the most important figure in the Buddhist tradition after the Buddha, were Ayurvedic doctors and authors.
Ayurveda, therefore, is a rich tradition, adaptable to many different times, cultures and climates. Today Ayurveda is in yet another stage of development, reaching out to the Western World and addressing modern conditions. It is part of a new movement towards a global medicine that includes the best in the medicines of all lands. >>
Dr. David Frawley, Ayurvedic Healing: A Comprehensive Guide
Today so much that markets itself as integrative or holistic medicine takes a materialistic worldview as its point of departure, one that still pervades modern scientific and medical practice. There is little recognition and true understanding of the spirit and soul of each individual, which greatly determines her or his state of spiritual, mental and physical health.
I have been trained as an Ayurvedic medicine and pranic healing practitioner in Germany and the United States, and bring this wisdom and knowledge into the consultations, healing treatments, and mentoring I offer.
As a Heilpraktiker I am licensed to practice healthcare and psychotherapy in Germany. Outside of Germany I work with clients as a health consultant, spiritual healer, energy therapist and mentor. This represents no difference in my professional capabilities; it is only a question of definition.
Decades of in-depth exploration of Western and Eastern esoteric teachings and practices have deepened my connection with divine sources of teaching and healing.
I offer the fruits of my studies, spiritual practices and clinical experience to those who are moved from within to seek my assistance.
With Love and Blessings to You,
