All programs disseminated by the Wise Earth School are original teachings restored from the long-lost grass-roots sadhana education of Ayurveda. Wise Earth Ayurveda® is based on the Inner Medicine education and work developed by Sri Swamini Mayatitananda. Unlike modern approaches to Ayurveda which are greatly influenced by allopathic medicine’s clinical and prescriptive nature, Wise Earth Ayurveda® is a preventative model of healing which informs that each and every person has the innate power to heal themselves once they are taught to use their Inner Medicine resources effectively.

Wise Earth Practitioner/Instructor Training

The Wise Earth program presents a unique methodology in Ayurveda sadhana practices developed by Sri Swamini Mayatitananda (Maya Tiwari). Organic sadhana practices of Food, Breath, and Sound; Ayurvedic Health Care for Women; and the Pancha Karma Sadhanas- are a few of Wise Earth Ayurveda's vast plethora of programs that we offer to the Wise Earth Ayurveda® instructor/practitioner in training. The long forgotten Earth-sadhanas such as Bhu Sveda - therapies done on the daubed surface of the earth or in pits dug into the earth are among the many healing and rejuvenative arts that have been restored into new life by the Wise Earth School . Among the many programs offered are Vedic Chanting, Ajapa - Japa Meditation, and the Healing Passes ™ – a therapeutic form of Yoga practiced with Wise Earth's unique methodology of linking movement, breath and sound in a series of postures that align our breath with lunar and solar rhythms.
