 With God’s help,
I will release all sorrows, all fears, and all insecurities
from my mind.

I believe that now my mind is free of all worries, all

fears, and all feelings of insecurities.
God is filling my heart with courage, peace, serenity,
and security.

God protect me from harm.

God protect my loved ones from harm.
God guide me to the right decision.
God will guide me through this situation.

 AYURVEDA - a science of life
Ayurveda – an integral part of the Indian tradition – is a 5000-year-old healing system, the essence
of which is to harmonize body, mind, and soul taking into account the physical, mental, spiritual,
social and environmental constitution of a person. Spending time in restful surroundings in India,
Ayurveda's home country or in the peace and quiet of historical Bad Bocklet in Bavaria, Germany
will help you to relax your mind and body and achieve lasting peace and wellness.

The theoretical side of Ayurveda provides pathological functions of the body, mind and
insights into how to live one’s life in harmony consciousness. Thought, feelings, speech, action,

YOGA | MEDITATION | AYURVEDA
10
 Yoga | Meditation | Ayurveda
Yoga, as well as Ayurveda, has its root in the Indian philosophy. It is considered
as a part of Ayurveda. During Yoga practice, the focus is to get rid of all thoughts
and judgments. Another well-known definition is “comprehensive union”. Just like
people differ in temperament and appearance, there are versatile possibilities to
practice Yoga for every individual.

Yoga focuses on the human’s own activeness which shall be supported by the aid of
physical exercises (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama) and Meditation. A kind
of strength and control of consciousness is being developed which helps to maintain
an inner order within the various influences of life. Ayurveda, as well as Yoga,
considers the consciousness as primary power of life which controls everything.

At Madukkakuzhy Ayurveda, Yoga is an integral part of our treatment program.

Here you have an opportunity to learn yoga under the direct supervision of
Dr. Robin Jacob and Mrs. Anju Robin who is trained in Yoga at Sivananda Yoga,
Trivandrum, and Dr. Jomi PJ joins hand with them and coordinates the Yoga
training at our centers.

We follow the teaching methodology of Sivananda Yoga and Iyengar Yoga.

AYURVEDIC DIET
12
 A YURVED IC D IET
Ayurveda Diet is one of the most important building blocks in Ayurveda and Ayurveda Medicine

The right diet plays an important role in Ayurvedic medicine. Over the years
Madukkakuzhy Ayurveda has been following a special ayurvedic vegetarian diet
which was developed by our team of doctors based on the research with reference
to old ayurvedic texts. As non-vegetarian food is a taboo during the treatment
period, only vegetarian meals are prepared in our kitchen.

Spices are one of the treasures of India and it plays an important role in the
preparation of Ayurvedic food, helping the healing process in general. We are
happy to go along with the individual wishes of patients, as long as this does not
conflict with the treatment plan. If requested, all your meals will be strictly
prepared in line with your dosha type, ensuring taste and well-being.

The Kitchen is headed by Mrs. Molly Joy (wife of Dr.Joy Mathew) supported by Mrs.
Anju Robin (wife of Dr.Robin Jacob) and Mrs. Meethu Jobin (wife of Dr.Jobin J
Madukkakuzhy) which gives a motherly touch to the food with two special
ingredients–Love and Care. Along with the food prepared with Ayurveda concepts,
we also incorporate regional recipes and local food on our menu. The guest staying
with us has a great opportunity to learn Ayurveda cooking by attending our cooking
class (on demand).
