Ayurvedic Lifestyle & Nutrition (Diploma): Level 1

This course is designed for anyone who wants to learn Ayurveda from an in-depth and practical perspective. It is ideal for those who want a career change, to earn a qualification as an Ayurvedic Consultant and become part of a growing movement in alternative healing or for those who are interested in personal growth and healthcare.

Our students, ranging from doctors, pharmacists and healthcare professionals at all levels, alternative health practitioners, yoga teachers, therapists to lawyers, accountants, carers, full-time mothers and bankers and from all parts of the world, have all benefitted greatly from learning this precious life science. Whatever the background and geography this study of Ayurveda has been a part of each students’ personal evolution.

We are excited to announce that we have significantly changed the Diploma in Ayurvedic Lifestyle and Nutrition for 2019. The course now offers the equivalent teaching of a full-time course but delivered in a way that fits around your commitments. The enormous increase in the amount of teaching and practicum will significantly enhance students’ experience of learning Ayurveda and offers more support for our new practitioners to set up in practice than any other training provider of this kind. Previously the course contained over 600 hours of teaching, training clinics, case studies, tutorials, Q&A sessions via live-stream, advisory facility and forum via social media. We are now adding a further 80-100 additional hours of teaching in video format to the curriculum. In addition to the existing training clinics and case studies, we are now adding shadow consultations with our experienced doctors as well as a range of additional practical classes in preparing remedies, identification of herbs, and more advisory sessions.

“Health is our true wealth” and so learning Ayurveda is the best investment of our life

Intensive, foundational and vocational course offering more practicum than any other provider of Ayurvedic education to prepare students to practice and treat a wide range of disorders using nutrition and lifestyle advice; prescribing appropriate Ayurvedic herbal supplements; recommending treatment methods and offering home remedies.

Students acquire a thorough understanding of the foundational principles of Ayurvedic nutrition, lifestyle, Ayurvedic pharmacology and Sanskrit. The depth and breadth of the teaching is the result of Dr Deepika Rodrigo’s decades of clinical practice in the UK, the century of clinical experience of our Ayurvedic doctors and draws directly from the syllabus of the 6-year Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine & Surgery.

Students benefit from exponential learning through our unrivalled practicum of training clinics, shadowing consultations in the Ayurvedic clinic and case studies, preparing you to launch into practice after qualification.

Our courses are characterised by authenticity, vocational practice through our clinic, pioneering teaching strategies and technology and flexibility to allow you to mould your education around your life.
