Growing up is a process of dehydration...

Think of it- when you’re born, you’re a soft, squishy watery baby with liquids flowing in and out of you. As you grow up, your body gains more form, your skin is harder, your bodily fluids are more contained. As you continue to grow, you skin becomes dryer, your joints lose their flexibility, and your body begins to lose strength.

As you grow old, you experience changes both in your life circumstances, your mind and in your body.

Commonly, when you’re in your twenties, you’re dreaming about your career or your partner, you’re disturbed by unsightly pimples and not bothered about wrinkles. When you transition into your forties, you don’t party as long at night, you don’t run around doing errands like you did back in high school and you often find yourself starting sentences with, “When we were younger…” When you’re in and around your eighties or beyond, you reminisce a few select past escapades repeatedly, as you slowly finish your breakfast, worry about your clothes being washed, ironed and hung on time or about the lock on the backdoor that’s making it harder to push the door open and take medicines for your joints and other health issues.

Do you know how Ayurveda explains this?

According to Ayurveda, your life is deeply influenced or dominated by each of the 3 Doshas- Vata, Pitta and Kapha.

Kapha, the combination of water and earth, dominates childhood. Moisture, stickiness, You are affectionate, emotional and carefree. You get attached easily, you cry quickly. You consume liquids- your digestive power is yet to be built.

As you grow older, you pass through the phase of Pitta, which is made up of water and fire. You are ambitious, energetic, at the prime of the strength of your faculties. You can eat and experiment with most foods, your digestion is fully developed.

And eventually, you enter the phase of Vata, which is made up of air and space. You’re less fluid in your movements. You’re spaced out more often, there are gastric issues. You cannot easily eat anything you like, for, your digestion is challenged. Feeling cold, dried, wrinkled skin, dry, painful joints, restlessness, forgetfulness and anxiety is Vata making its presence felt.

Notice something? In this final phase of Vata, water is missing?

(And, by the way, this is also one of the biggest reasons daily oil massage is so important in Ayurveda!)

So what if Ayurveda has names for these stages? How does that help?

It helps, because it doesn’t stop at that. 

By recognising the direction of the journey of growing up, Ayurveda helps you learn what’s coming up your way and provides for specific mechanisms to help you counter that imbalance. And this also why, Ayurveda has specific ‘Dinacharya’ or Daily Regimes and ‘Ritucharya’ or Seasonal regimes as well which help us tune our diet and lifestyle choices and habits with nature’s own cycles.

This is where Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda meet. 

From a primary Chinese medicine text, ‘The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine’:

The Yellow Emperor asks his minister Ch’i Po why humans no longer have the lifespan of the ancient people that lived during this golden age.

“Is it because the world changes from generation to generation,” he asks, “or is it because humans change?”

Ch’i Po responds that in ancient times, people lived long because they patterned their way of living by the nature of yin and yang. They lived as energies flowed and balanced.

They lived intuitively.

So how do you do that?

“My only motivation is to get you to a place where you become more empowered.”

Which is why Todd is talking about anti-aging with you today and talking with his usual, clear-eyed wisdom! Todd doesn’t want you to view aging as a negative thing anymore. As he says: “You are only so lucky to be aging!” After all, aging means growing and being ALIVE. Todd wants to EMPOWER you to seize this living, vital force within you and enhance it NOW through lifestyle changes. Here’s a look at the contents of Ayurveda and Anti-Aging:

A powerful, multi-disciplinary healing programme that shows you how to plan your transitions from one stage of life to another in synergy with nature.

Be it important physiological aging-related mechanisms such as advanced glycosylation, living in tandem with natural rhythms, exploring the use of Chinese herbs in enhancing vital life energy ‘qi’, yoga as an anti-aging tool or the many rejuvenating, immunity-boosting Ayurvedic practices – this truly unique course encompasses topics from Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine, two of the world’s greatest healing systems, as well as the innate knowledge imprinted in our own body’s common sense! And what’s even better, it has been authored by none other than Todd Caldecott, one of the most well respected Ayurvedic Practitioners in the Northern Hemisphere.

Whether you’re around eighty, fifty or thirty…

…whether you’re at the Kapha, Pitta or the Vata stage of life, notice and remember, that we age every day and thus, regardless of which phase of life you’re in, this is something, you need to learn today as well as teach your kids, right from childhood.

Aging is, after all, simply transitioning into the next phase of your life. 

Ask yourself this question, could you have been fitter or more joyful today had you
practiced somethings yesterday or earlier in your past? 

You have an opportunity to maximise your health potential today and once you do that, you’ll end up maximising not just
the quantity but also the quality of your days to come.

Among other things you have read about the programme so far, you will also learn to:

• Organise your day according to the flow of the day’s natural energy 
• View aging as natural, disease as unnatural 
  
• Stop disease before it takes root 
  
• Help your children balance their energies at an early age 
  
• Nurture the spiritual health of your parents as they advance in life 
  
• Quiet the noise and listen to your body’s intuition 
  
• Restructure your relationship with food 
  
• Harness your breath 
  
• Detoxify yourself of the barely talked about mental waste matter 
  
• How to unblock your energy channels so your psychic, mental and physical beings resonate with each other and the flow of nature 
  

And many, many other concepts, tips and insights that can barely be skimmed over here. Order the
programme now and begin learning right away!

AND WHY SHOULD YOU ORDER THIS PROGRAMME NOW?

There are multiple reasons for ordering this programme now – it will be one of the best decisions you make for yourself and your family!

Firstly, the cost advantage of the introductory discount is huge, and why would you not want to study such an interesting, in-depth and useful programme and yet get to save quite a bit?

The cost advantage doesn’t end here. This course contains insights from not just one or two but more healing methods: Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, herbal medicine, as well as lessons from Paleo lifestyles and contemporary science! Do the math and the cost of even one of these disciplines heavily outweighs the price of this course. Where else can you find such a multi-disciplinary primer power-packed with easy to implement know-how at such a reasonable price?

And because the programme shows you the way to a disease-free anti-aging model, you are looking at thousands of dollars saved in potential costs of doctor’s appointments and expensive drugs! 

That’s regarding the price - but time-saving is equally important! If you have a busy schedule with a job and children and other responsibilities to juggle, or have other limitations such as living in an area where such classes are unavailable...

...this course can be a life-saver. You can learn techniques to change your life and that of your family in the privacy of your own home and watch it as many times as you want!

Also, what is PRICELESS here is finding an authentic practitioner whose very youthful energy is testimony to his practice of his principles, whose persona exudes humble, warm compassion. You’ve seen the video, you’ve seen Todd and just watching him speak with charismatic energy as well as a genuine desire to help people is enough for you to feel powerful and charged with hope. His relatable, anecdotal style, the healing experiences from his practice and the examples from his life and learning make you want to change now! 

This programme tells you how to put in these ounces of prevention so the decades ahead turn into a blissful, light-filled, energised, golden highway of conscious living and healing. You are so close to achieving the potential embedded within…
