Testimonials:

As western awareness of Ayurveda has increased, so has the amount of information and training on this ancient science. Making sense of the material without a knowledgeable teacher can be difficult and in my experience most of what is available barely touches the surface of the vastness of Ayurveda. A delightful exception to this is Arpita Shah who has an encyclopedic knowledge of Ayurveda, years of experience in counseling individuals and innate skills as a teacher. She has the ability to convey complex material in a compelling, engaging, challenging and sometimes humorous way. Arpita’s Ayurveda Wellness Counselor program goes deeply into this Ayurveda using both ancient and modern texts coupled with a large syllabus which will be a reference for me for years to come. In addition to conveying the knowledge, through ongoing real life case studies guided by Arpita I’ve learned to practically apply this knowledge an feel equipped to counsel my wide variety of clients with confidence. In short, if you are looking to really understand Ayurveda and how to apply it to help your clients I can’t emphasize the benefits of Arpita’s program. Thank you Aprita, blessed to call you both teacher and friend. - Nancy D., 2021 Ayurveda Wellness Counselor Program Graduate

This course is not just about what Ayurveda is, but it is also about how we can apply this knowledge at a practical level. Arpita's teaching is based on the classical texts of Ayurveda. The course material is proof to how deep and expansive her knowledge is in this field. Her teaching style is easy for anyone to understand and her story telling from the Vedas makes it so much more interesting. Overall, the AWC program has deepened my knowledge of Ayurveda multifold. - Umashree K., 2021 Ayurveda Wellness Counselor Program Graduate

I met Arpita Shah at the beginning of my career in the field of Yoga and total body wellness almost eight years ago. I have since gone on to train with, and work with many leaders in the Yoga community. I have spent the last two years training solely with Arpita. I can say without hesitation that Arpita is the most complete professional I have ever worked with. She is profoundly knowledgeable, well respected, and is truly gifted in her ability to teach complex topics with ease. Her trainings come with an immense amount of support and materials. There are only a handful of individuals in this industry that can hold a candle to her level of understanding of the ancient texts and teachings of Ayurveda and Yoga. I would recommend her teachings and trainings to anyone interested in a career in Yoga and Ayurveda, or on the journey of self healing. - Leah S., 2021 Ayurveda Wellness Counselor Program Graduate

As a recent graduate of the Om Yoga Journey Ayurveda Wellness Counselor program, I am very pleased with what I learned about Ayurveda. Arpita is extremely knowledgeable and she really enjoys sharing her love of Ayurveda to inspire her students. You will absolutely not regret your decision to pursue the Om Yoga Journey Ayurveda Wellness Counselor program with the one and only Arpita Shah - Suzy S., 2021 Ayurveda Wellness Counselor Program Graduate
