Each class for Module 2 will be divided into 2 parts. Part one will feature an in-depth treatment of a particular theme within Ayurvedic practice. Themes will expand on the basic terminology and concepts of Module 1, span several classes each, and will include things like:
Ayurvedic considerations in asana practice (including restorative)
Ayurveda and reproductive health (including menstruation, libido, pregnancy and post-partum)
Ayurvedic psychology
Ayurveda and aging
Recipes and herbs
Part 2 of each class will feature either one or two real-time consultations with willing course registrants. The Webex platform we’ll be using allows me to turn on a participant’s video and audio so that we can conduct a full consultation “in public” on key issues the participant will submit by email prior to the class. Before each interview I’ll establish with the participant the boundaries of discussion to ensure comfort and protect privacy.
Course completion will require a 2000-word research paper on the application of Ayurvedic principles and techniques to a particular condition or life situation. (Or — if you totally hate this idea, we’ll work out some other task that shows you’ve been absorbing the material and method!)
