Abstract:

The Masters of Science program in Maharishi AyurVeda and Integrative Medicine offered at Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield, Iowa, includes both a traditional and western approach of the study of Ayurveda. Each of the eight main systems of the body is examined in terms of physiology, pathology, assessment, and management of health disorders from the perspective of Maharishi AyurVeda and that of modern Integrative Medicine. The goal of this program is to provide theoretical and practical knowledge, which enlivens the body’s inner intelligence – the field of pure consciousness – to provide prevention and treatment of illness, and the promotion of ideal health.
