Ayurveda and Elders

Ayurveda: an ancient system of life and health as a new vision for supporting and healing our elders.

Whether living as a couple, alone at home, or in an elder community, the expectation for our elders today is often limited to maintaining their status quo in health and quality of life. We mostly do not have a vision that strives to improve health, that strives to better the quality of life of elders.


Here Ayurveda, the 5000 year old ‘science of life’, takes a different stance. Following time tested programs and methods, Ayurveda emphasizes that we can enhance our lives through intelligent food choices, natural medicines, lifestyle and behavioral changes. 


In addition, by paying attention not only to the needs of our bodies but also to our emotional and spiritual nature, we can deepen who we are and make use of our aging process as a time to know ourselves and understand the world in which we live, connect more deeply with our nature.


We welcome you to learn about Ayurveda and how it can improve the lives not only of our elders, but that of all of us humans, including your own.

Our Team

Our Elder Ashram Team

Ami

 “I do not remember ever working with a team of professionals who are as warm-hearted and loving while also being so very skilled in the way they care."
 

Yordanos and Negsa

“If you are looking for some compassionate, caring people, this is the team I highly recommend. Their friendliness and professionalism is what I love about them."

I have learned so much

I have learned

so much from God  

that I can no longer

call myself   

a Christian, a Hindu,

a Muslim, a Buddhist, a Jew.


The truth has shared  

so much of itself with me

that I can no longer 

call myself a man, 

a woman, an angel, 

or even pure soul. 

  

Love has befriended Hafiz

so completely

it has turned to ash

and freed me

of every concept

and image my mind has ever known.   


From "Love Poems From God"
