You have been wanting to deepen your knowledge of the Yogic wisdom and the Vedic philosophy and how you can integrate this into your daily life.
You have been trying to lead a more conscious and sustainable lifestyle.
Warning! You may however experience some major side effects such as…
A body tuned to nature's circadian rhythm and lasting healthy routines and habits.
Feelings of energy & purpose throughout the day - by establishing your own unique daily routine and Sadhana practice.

A feeling of control and purpose, leading to reduced stress and anxiety.
Creating a positive ripple effect in everything you do that will bring a positive impact on your health, work, relationship, other people and the planet.
A happy and healthy relationship with yourself, your partner, family and friends.

Changing your diet and lifestyle habits is just a start. In fact, it’s just scratching the surface when it comes to achieving your true health & happiness.

Lesson 1: Introduction to the Four Functions of the Mind
Lesson 2: How to Overcome the 7 Most Common Mind Traps
Lesson 3: The Healing Power of Mantra
Eating the right diet and living a balanced lifestyle is the foundation of Dharma because if you are physically unwell, you may not have the energy to pursue your other goals in life.
Understanding the mind and developing self-awareness is also important as if you are psychologically unwell, you may become demotivated and could make poor decisions, which may cause you to deviate from your true path.
This is why Ayurvedic living is an important part of Dharmic living.
But on the other hand, if the 4 Goals of Life that promote balanced fulfilment across all aspects of your life are not well integrated this can also have a negative impact on your mind and body.
In Module Four, you’ll learn about the 4 Great Goals of Life and start your journey to examine and discover your highest purpose in life, so that you can start to take control and live your Dharma – one that brings you abundance, happiness and joy.

I FEEL RESTED, I HAVE ENERYGY WHEN GETTING UP, AND I GET DAILY ROUTINES ACCOMPLISHED.
Before joining Pathway to Dharma, my stomach was bloated, gassy, and felt heavy. I often snacked or ate fatty foods throughout the day and before going to bed, and the following day I felt tired and had no energy. I didn’t have the motivation to do my daily routines.
After going through Pillar One of Pathway to Dharma, I’ve been eating foods according to my Doshas and I now feel rested, I have energy when getting up, and I get daily routines accomplished!
Looking at life in terms of these four goals makes it much easier to navigate some very difficult situations. It helped me feel like I am on the correct path with following what brings joy and meaning to my life and not just feeling validated by a paycheck.
Overall these goals are so helpful in putting life into perspective and have really brought me a sense of calm.
UNDERSTANDING MY DOSHA HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!
Being aware of my Dosha means that I understand how the pandemic is impacting my particular tendency to get angry and impatient as a stress response.
Just knowing this helps give me the space to reflect before I react.
Before I joined Pathway to Dharma, I went to bed late and ate a cold breakfast in the morning. I was cold and tired. I also had a shift job and never felt that I was getting enough rest.
After joining Pathway to Dharma, I am feeling less cold and I have more energy. I have also started to listen more to myself and my needs.
I also changed the job that I’m passionate about, with regular times and no work in the evenings so that I can go to bed earlier. I am grateful towards myself that I took the step to move forward!.

Integrating Ayurveda practices into my already busy life feels overwhelming... How much time do I require if I want to see the results?
