This five-part IAdvanced Ayurvedic Psychology course offers a profound, systems-based exploration of the mind, consciousness, and mental health through the classical Ayurvedic lens. Drawing from Ayurveda, Yoga, Samkhya philosophy, and decades of clinical experience, this series moves far beyond introductory concepts to examine how perception, memory, desire, attachment, and consciousness shape mental and emotional wellbeing.
Across the full series, students learn how the doshas influence psychological patterns, how the gunas shape behavior and cognition, and how imbalances in dhi (perception), dhriti (will), and smriti (memory) contribute to mental distress. The course explores both theory and application, including Ayurvedic counseling principles, meditation, spiritual psychology, lifestyle alignment, and practitioner–client dynamics.
Rather than focusing on diagnostic labels, this series emphasizes understanding the nature of the mind, resolving attachment and expectation, cultivating sattva, and restoring balance through awareness, right action, and therapeutic relationship.
This course is ideal for intermediate and advanced Ayurvedic students, herbalists, integrative practitioners, and serious learners seeking a deeper, philosophically grounded approach to mental and emotional health.

The Intermediate/Advanced Ayurvedic Psychology series is a comprehensive five-part immersion into Ayurveda’s sophisticated understanding of the mind, consciousness, and emotional life. Rooted in classical texts and refined through decades of clinical and teaching experience, this course presents Ayurvedic psychology not as symptom management, but as a pathway toward clarity, balance, and liberation from mental suffering.
Students explore the foundational philosophical roots of Ayurvedic psychology, including Samkhya, Yoga, and the Vedic sciences, while learning how these frameworks inform modern psychological challenges. The series examines the psychological expressions of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha; the influence of the gunas (sattva, rajas, tamas); and the importance of aligning life with dharma, artha, kama, and moksha. Key mental functions—dhi, dhriti, and smriti—are explored in depth as essential pillars of mental health.
As the course progresses, students learn how attachment, desire, ego, and expectation create mental disturbance, and how Ayurvedic psychotherapy aims to “conquer the mind” through awareness, meditation, right association, and lifestyle alignment. Advanced topics include Ayurvedic counseling strategies, practitioner communication skills, working skillfully with different doshic personalities, and creating therapeutic environments that support healing.
Rather than offering rigid protocols, this series provides a nuanced, adaptable framework for understanding mental imbalance and supporting clients through insight, relationship, and consciousness-based healing. The result is a rare, integrative exploration of psychology that bridges philosophy, clinical application, and spiritual understanding.
