Nimai Nitaidas, ND(Ay), MPH, ERYT
Ayurveda: The Ancient Medicine of Well-Being

Long before the word “holistic” entered our vocabulary, Ayurveda was
India’s system of treating not the disease but rather the whole person.


Dr. Nitaidas is the Dean of the Dharma Institute of Yoga & Ayurveda in
Cambridge, Massachusetts. He has been President of the Board of
Directors of the Latin American Health Institute, on the faculty of the
Boston University School of Public Health, consulted private and public
foundations including: Kellogg, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and Robert
Wood Johnson.


He holds a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from Santa Fe College
of Natural Medicine and a Master of Public Health from the Boston
University School of Medicine. He is currently on the faculty of Tufts
University School of Medicine and is an Experienced Registered Yoga
Teacher with the Yoga Alliance.


Suddha means pure, positive, unalloyed. Suddha Ayurveda is the
original Ayurvedic tradition.

- What is the principle of subtle precedence?
- How do you achieve pure and direct perception?
- Why treat the patient instead of the disease?
- Is the patient just the body?

- What is Ayurvedic Singularity?

- Question and Answer Discussion.

Ayurveda helps achieve well-being through a systematic analysis of a patient’s mental and vocational disposition, life-stage, social situation and physiology. Dr. Nitaidas is uniquely qualified to explain and demonstrate how this works and how it applies to the stresses of our modern technological world.
