MENTORSHIP

WHAT IS MENTORSHIP?

 

Each level of our course offers experiential learning, interactive sessions where you learn under the direct guidance of a teacher one to one. Or, in a small group. This is done over video or zoom for online students.

 

For those who opt for Hybrid with in-person hours, a portion of the classroom hours, practicums and direct coaching and guidance from the teacher is called mentorship.

 

PRACTICUM

 

For example, marma point activation with crystals or tuning forks, chakra balancing, creation of vastu yantras. Creation of  Vedic herb teas with local flowers, or creation of masalas and churnams. Or, seeing your teacher interact with a client. Or the teacher observes the student interact with client and gives feedback. 

 

In Vedic Ayurveda Lifestyle Coach, we have a few practicums like Vedic Ayurveda Recipes for doshas like creation fo golden milk, churnams, takra or buttermilk and ghee. Or, the  Vedic Nadi Pariksh, a study of subtle changes and meridians of the body and spiritual self. Students learn how to read their own subtle energies by accessing the nadi points and/or the marma points. This is done during a mentorship session. In addition, the mentorship also includes the students observing their teacher or instructor on zoom with clients.

 

 You can choose to do your mentorship online only.

 You can choose to do it as a combination- Hybrid.

 

Although for the NAMA exam you only require 40 hours of in person mentorship, you are welcome to take more add on mentorship sessions, as long as they are available.

 

FREE AYURVEDA DAYS and IN PERSON Client Observations

​

 We have regular Complimentary pop up community service offering Vedic Ayurveda coaching to local people once a month on Friday evenings for a few hours or Saturday afternoons for 2-4 hours.  Students may sign up if space is available.

 

 We cannot guarantee the number of clients who sign up. Students are also welcome to bring their own friends/ relatives to the sliding scale Ayurveda center in Alachua county or Gainesville Florida.  The sliding Scale mentorship charge is $20 per hour. Students either observe the teacher or actively participate depending on their level of training. If only a few clients have signed up, the teacher helps students with reading and creating paperwork and studying  client materials etc .
