Yoga: An Experiential Science

Vidhya Udare became passionate about Yoga during her medical training, where she was inspired by a fellow senior physician who combined medicine and Yoga in her practice as a Holistic approach to healing complex conditions. She was very impressed and began to explore the benefits of Yoga from a medical perspective.  Her hunger to gain a deeper perspective led her to Kaivalyadham, one of the oldest Yoga schools where she had the opportunity to learn Traditional Yoga (following Yogic principles and philosophies of Maharishi Patanjali’s Ashtang Yoga) from highly experienced teachers. She completed a rigorous RYT 300 Advanced Teacher Training program and was awarded the "Best Student of the Batch". She is a Certified Meditation teacher and has completed  many hours of continued education in Chakra Meditation, Hatha Yoga, Yoga Nidra and Pranayama from esteemed Yoga institutions.

Her focus is to bring Yoga to everyone with a scientific approach, understanding the deep underlying causes of disease. She combines Homeopathy, Functional Medicine, and Yoga in her practice which are based on one common fundamental principle, i.e. “Consider the individual as a whole on physical, physiological, mental, intellectual and spiritual level.” She continues to learn from various teachers and her special interest is to incorporate the immense advantages Yoga can offer beyond physical, mental, and emotional well-being, because "Yoga Chikitsa is the dynamic state of physical and mental ease, coupled with spiritual well-being”.

According to IAYT "Yoga therapy is the process of empowering individuals to progress toward improved health and well-being through the application of the teachings and practices of yoga."
