Ajurweda.pl (Poland)
Ajurweda.pl is one of the leading names in Ayurveda in Poland. Headed by Elzbieta Zuk-Widmanska, the company has been organizing Ayurvedic courses and training programs in collaboration with Jiva. A former student of Dr. Partap Chauhan, Ela has been bringing Polish students to Jiva to learn Ayurveda from our experts for the last eight years. Ajurweda.pl has recently started organizing courses at their centers in Warsaw and Poznan, wherein experienced Ayurvedic doctors from Jiva will be visiting their campus to conduct these training programs.

Chie Mombu (representing Jiva Japan) I am Chie Mombu in Japan. I have been Dr. Partap Chauhan's student for 10 years and have been coordinating his seminars and workshops in Japan. I opened an ayurveda school to teach Japanese people basic theories of ayurveda last year with Jiva's certificates to the students. I teach the basic theories of authentic ayurveda with the Japanese translation of a textbook Dr. Partap made. With ayurveda drawing attention from the Japanese people, there are many applicants to the 6-month basic course. I enjoy teaching ayurveda to the Japanese people.
I became interested in ayurveda 15 years but this was just an interest. Ten years ago, I encountered Dr. Partap Chauhan and he ignited my interest in ayurveda. He taught me lots of things about ayurveda.
If ayurveda is a simple health support like a "turmeric is good for the liver" kind of thing, I would not have interested in it so much. Why ayurveda is attractive to me is that it treats the human and its relation with the universe and nature.
The ayurveda school I am managing made a good start. Currently there is one basic course class, but I hope the number of classes will increase. This is a good opportunity to let the people know what ayurveda is.
Many Japanese people, including children, are living a stressful life. Japan is the No 1 country in longevity. The problem they are facing is the quality of life. I hope I can provide the Japanese people with places where they can refresh themselves physically and mentally.
Dr Partap taught me lots of things about ayurveda but this is still a part of the vast ayurvedic knowledge. I want Dr Partap to give me a chance to have communication with his other students. If I talk with other students, we could come up with more ideas about how ayurveda can be used to give better lives to people in the world.

Ananda Association (France) I am Magali Vezzaro. I run an organisation by the name of Ananda Association in the south-eastern French city of Draguignan. We organise Jiva’s seminars, courses, lectures with respect to Ayurveda. Ananda is a Sanskrit word which represents a state of bliss meaning complete balanced state, happiness, peace and love. The main aim of Ananda Association, that coalesces with that of Jiva, is to help people develop by their own all these states. The methods of human development propagated by Ananda are based on the ancient knowledge of Ayurveda. These include helping people to recognise their nature and make simple changes in their food, life style, attitude and behaviour in respect of their own consciousness. The ultimate goal of Ananda is to give people Ananda (bliss) by helping them live a natural an economic way of life. Visit Ananda Association's websitehere.
Bart Staub (U.S.A.) I am an Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultant/ Educator and Massage Therapist. Giving consultations and massage therapies brings me immeasurable happiness. By sharing the truth of Ayurveda wisdom I feel I am aiding humanity remember it's Divine heritage.
Dr. Partap Chauhan and Jiva offered an advanced course for Ayurvedic practitioners and graduates of Kripalu's School of Ayurveda this past February. Through Dr. Chauhan's presentation of "Ayurveda: beyond Vata,Pitta and Kapha" a new perspective and spring of hope opened inside me. Dr. Chauhan and his family are living the principles that they promote and by doing so, create a unique healing environment. In this environment the learning happens on a level beyond the mind. Through the heart the wisdom is felt and integrated in an extraordinary way. The Soul is reawakened and the light of Truth nourishes every cell.
My vision is to spread the Truth of Ayurveda through workshops and ayurvedic treatments. This wisdom is not bound to India and it's herbs and plants. Applying these universal principles to all cultures and societies we can rejuvenate ancient traditional wisdom around the world. Thus uniting the world through Truth and healing ourselves and the planet simultaneously.
