Ayurveda: Living Wisdom for the Body

Overview

I am thrilled to collaborate with Dr. Sujatha Kekada, an Ayurvedic practitioner based in Ubud, Bali, to co-create this course exploring the synergy of the sister sciences of yoga and Ayurveda. These two paths of wisdom complement each other and truly belong together. 

Dr Sujatha and I each have over 20 plus years of experience in our respective fields, and we've collaborated in live trainings for nearly a decade. This course reflects our shared understanding that the practices of yoga and the science of Ayurveda can create a strong foundation of resilience and balance in the whole being.

Over 4 weeks, Dr. Sujatha will share the  rich practical and conceptual foundations of Ayurveda, the science of life. We will explore putting this into practice with me as we apply it to daily life.

Each weekly module includes

  • Key concepts in Ayurveda and their application in our daily lives, with Dr. Sujatha Kekada
  • Practices and explorations of concepts with Janet Stone
  • Conversations with Janet and Dr. Sujatha to clarify ideas and how yoga and Ayurveda interconnect
  • A course handbook with key terms, theory and space to add your own notes and experiences

Curriculum

The course is explored through 4 week-long modules:

  • Introduction (available when enrollment opens) • What is Ayureda?
  • Module 1 • Dosha (constitution)
  • Module 2 • Dhatu (the tissues of the body)
  • Module 3 • Agni and Guna (the fires of digestion and the qualities of all things)
  • Module 4 • Amas, Ojas and Vyadhi Samprapti (health, toxins and the disease process in Ayurveda
  • Integration

Who is the course for?

This course is designed for anyone and everyone who wants to better understand their bodies and enhance balance in their lives:

  • Dedicated yoga practitioners
  • Yoga teachers who want to understand the sister science of Ayurveda and how to share it with students
  • Anyone seeking more individual agency to support health through daily practices
  • Those seeking a community of support to express their truest self

This course can apply for 25 continuing education hours through Yoga Alliance. It is also a core course for Janet's 300 hour program, and an elective for her 200 hour program (both 25 hours).

Janet Stone

Janet’s studentship began at 17 under the meditation teachings of Prem Rawat. His reverence for simplicity and finding joy in the rise and fall of life live on in her practice and teaching today. In 1996, she traveled to India, the birthplace of her grandfather, and became dedicated to the path of yoga. Janet blends the alchemy of her own practice with decades of studentship. She aspires not to teach but to allow the practice to emanate from her, letting awareness blend with movement and breath. Based in Bali and San Francisco, she leads immersions, retreats, workshops and more.

FAQ

How is this course setup?

We are using an intuitive, yet robust learning platform, called Mighty Networks. Once you enroll in the course, you’ll be invited to join the course + community space and you'll have access to the course intro.

Will I get access to everything at once?

In order to provide a container for this practice and process, one lesson will be covered each week for 4 weeks. As soon as you enroll, you’ll get access to introductory lectures and practices that will thread through the entire course.

I live in a different timezone (or country or continent)? Will I be able to participate in the course?

The course is setup so that it works for individuals no matter where they live in the world. New content will be released each week, and you can work through the practices, videos and exercises at your own pace. The ongoing community connection in the Mighty Network sets up an amazing way for ongoing connection, wherever you are.

Will we be doing a physical practice with this course?

There is a physical practice designed to balance and attune each Dosha. Once these are introduced, you’ll be encouraged to explore your own Dosha and commit to the practice related to that Dosha (with room to visit the other practices in moments when those feel more activated).

How much time should I plan to spend each week?

Each week includes approximately an hour of video content, including Dr. Sujatha’s thematic overviews, practices, recipes and guidance around Ayurvedic principles, discussions and reading. We recommend watching the conceptual overviews twice at different times during the week, and integrating the practices into your daily practice.

We estimate this will translate into approximately 5-7 hours per module, with a longer session as you start each module, about 25 minutes of daily (or almost daily practice), 30-45 minutes of reading content, a revisit of the thematic overviews and reflections toward the end of the module.

Can I rewatch or review content from earlier weeks?

Yes, absolutely. Once content for a week is unlocked, you will have access to that in the future. You can return to the course at any time and you’ll receive any updates to the curriculum for future course releases as well.

In what circumstances can I get a refund?

The course is non-refundable, since you get lifetime access to the content. If you have serious extenuating circumstances, email connie@janetstoneyoga.com and we’ll discuss options.

Who can I email if my question wasn’t answered here?

Email connie@janetstoneyoga.com if you have other questions.
