You have:

Had conversations about sex in the context of your “sex life.”

Seen explicit images from media suggesting what you should and shouldn’t be doing in bed…

Read health and beauty sites telling you “5 ways to be more attractive to your partner” or “7 tips to conceive in your forties….”

But here is what they NEVER tell you:

It is “LIFE,” NOT “SEX LIFE!”

Your sexual wellness is not a “side topic”, no matter what your age, it is a HUGE part of your health that everyone should be prioritising right about now.

“Why is sexual wellness that important?” – You may be thinking right here, "and what difference can it make to my health?"

Ayurveda explains exactly WHY through its famous 3-pillar theory.

Imagine your health as a portico. Ayurveda explains that this structure is propped by three pillars: the Tristambha of Food, Sleep and Sex. The portico can’t exist without these pillars! Food, sleep and sex hold up your health and influence each other deeply. So if even ONE of these pillars is underrepresented, your overall health weakens!

Is your INNER SCEPTIC rolling her eyes at this point and telling you it’s just SEX…

Well, that’s because we are socialised to view sex as exactly that – JUST SEX! We think sex is limited to pleasure and that pleasure in itself is not that important. Think of the many times people say this in response to your problems…

“I have lost interest in sex now that I’m older” – "That’s inevitable, it’s just sex…"

“I can’t connect with my partner sexually” – "It happens…It’s just sex…." And so on

WELL, GUESS WHAT, IT’S NEVER 'JUST SEX'.

Let’s clear all that JUDGEMENT for once and give yourself a break to focus on something very unique and very fresh: picture your own body as a treasure chest of health tools. What if you had a powerful tool in this chest, whose TRUE potential you have yet to recognise or use? And imagine discovering and optimising this tool? How exciting would that be and what an ENORMOUS difference it could make to your overall health and well-being! In other words:

ENHANCING SEXUAL WELLNESS WILL DIRECTLY BOOST YOUR OVERALL HEALTH.

That is why sexual wellness can change your life. Whether you're sexually active or not, Ayurveda doesn't have judgements on your choices... Sexual Wellness in this sophisticated science is about balancing and harnessing your powerful sexual energy. In a state of balanced sexual energy, your vital life force or RASA is constantly replenished, keeping you juicy, strong and calm.

And here’s another eye opener….

You can be in any phase of life; a 20-something or a grandparent, you can be single or partnered, a working parent who thinks the fire has gone out of his long-term partnership, you can be asexual or celibate or sexually active. You don’t need to be any particular way to have sexual wellness but just be someone who wants to embrace health.

Here is what life looks like when you have sexual wellness:

You LOVE your body and that of your partner in all their supposed “flaws”

Your romantic relationships are more meaningful

You practice proper sexual and physical hygiene, so you stay disease-free

You are able to manage your endocrine function better

The rasa in your body is constantly replenished, keeping your blood and lymph channels unblocked

Your ‘rasa’ is able to support better bone and muscle health, by transporting nutrients to every part of the body

Your body develops the ability to support immunity and energy

Because you have a healthy attitude towards sex and relationships, you are emotionally happy and mentally calm!

The masculine and feminine energies in your body flow in balance, so issues like menopause and prostate enlargement are easier to deal with…

Sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? So how do you get to this place of sexual wellness holistically? You don’t need expensive sessions of couples’ therapy or spend hundreds of dollars on “anti-aging” products or synthetic hormones.

No confusion, no artificial intervention, just this:

Making small RASA-REPLENISHING changes in your lifestyle can bring you in a state of sexual wellness. It is as practical as that and this is where Todd comes in!

And this is how Todd explains Ayurveda’s definition of Sexual Wellness:

“The third component of the tristambha is brahmacharya, and literally refers to sexual continence and chastity. More broadly, however, brahmacharya relates to practices that are orientated towards the attainment of spiritual consciousness and eternal bliss…. Normal sexual relations are a part of this attainment, as an act reflected in the cosmic principles of creation itself.”

And that’s why Todd’s view of sexual wellness is such a breath of fresh air and so sex-positive! No more thinking of sex as “frivolous” and confusion or myths around sexual wellness and the areas of life it impacts. To help you harness your sexual energy and bring balance into your life, as well as understand how a decline in sexual health corresponds to common endocrine and reproductive issues like Infertility, Polycystic Ovarian Disease and Erectile Dysfunction, The Ayurveda Experience is very excited to bring to you a new course by Todd Caldecott:

AND WHY SHOULD YOU ORDER THIS PROGRAM 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 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. In Todd’s trademark manner, this course takes a very practical and multidisciplinary approach, which covers not just Ayurveda, but insights from Chinese and Western Medicine too, as well as concepts from the latest current research. Because the course looks at the role of sexual wellness in your total-health picture, it covers topics that range from sexual to hormonal to digestive health! This means the breadth of this course is something which visits to many different specialists would cover, but right here it is in one place in a very lucid and actionable format. And because it gives you the tools to better understand your partner’s physiology and needs too, it can help better your relationship, something you generally need expensive therapy for! You do the cost-benefit analysis of the program yourself.

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!

Get instant HD access to the course on The Ayurveda Experience platform. Simply log in and access all your courses anytime. Watch them on any device: desktop, smartphone and tablet. Watch your course in the comfort of your home or while you're on the go!

Also, what is PRICELESS here is finding an authentic practitionerwhose persona exudes wisdom and humility and who has a very flexible and practical approach to health.

In Todd's own words:

"I am very practical in my approach, because Ayurveda is very practical. In essence, there are no wrong or right foods, but there are wrong and right ways to apply them."

Todd’s clarity on his subject and positivity make you want to start changing your life immediately. The alternative he talks about is not complicated or theoretical or fussy – it is something you can begin implementing NOW and that’s the promise Todd offers.

Here's how Todd wants to empower you to take charge of your health:

CASE STUDY

Here’s a sneak peek at the effects of Todd’s approach towards managing PCOD for a woman in his practice.

“This patient was a 26 year old female diagnosed with PCOS-induced amenorrhea, who only had one natural period in her reproductive life. She also presented with issues such as anxiety and IBS. She had previously sought the help of many different gynaecologists, with no success. Her drug history included oral contraceptives and SSRIs.

Initially, I applied a Paleo-inspired, Vata-reducing diet (with no gluten or dairy) along with live culture foods. In addition to this, I suggested a medicinal soup stock, prepared from marrow bones and herbs … Approximately one month after following this protocol, she had her first period since being a teenager. Upon the next visit I gave her a formula to help with her PMS.

During the next month, she went away on winter holidays with her family, and reported that her digestion was much better, but noticed she was feeling different, and was anxious because she did not have a period when she should have in late December. We discussed additional options to promote ovulation, but I asked to be patient. A couple weeks later the patient contacted me to confirm that she was in fact pregnant, and was obviously very excited, and later the next year gave birth to a healthy baby girl.”

Here's what people have been saying about Todd:

For Lent (the 40 days leading up to Easter) I decided to follow your diet recommendations completely 100%, no cheating, nothing. I know you’ll be thinking “I told you so” but yeah, I should have just done this from the beginning! My skin has been like 5 million times better, I’ve had 2 periods which have been the most pain-free periods of my life (that tincture you had made is fantastic!) and in general, things are really good. My periods are much closer together than I’d prefer, but the lack of pain makes them much more manageable. I’ve found that my skin becomes most inflamed/rashy/blistery during ovulation and leading up to my period, and as soon as my period comes the rash diminished rapidly (hurrah!). Since Lent began I’ve been so pleased to find that the amount of rash during ovulation is like… barely noticeable at all. Honestly, it’s been life changing. THANK YOU for everything… and thanks for letting me come to these realizations on my own without forcing me into it!

- A.Yeates, Vancouver

I have known Todd Caldecott from professional forums for several years and he uniformly has excellent insights, combining research findings with traditional practices. His experience spans from traditional Ayurveda to tribal practices of the Pacific Northwest and he has a knack for drawing conclusions based on science and tradition.

- Barbara Meza, Owner of Conscius Vita

I want to thank you for the help you gave me in getting healthy. I have been off all pharmaceuticals/drugs for over a year now and am managing my ulcerative colitis purely by your diet, your tinctures, and your lessons that taught me to tune into my body better. I got to KEEP my large intestine, and am able to live at an incredibly stable state for the most part. My GI told me I’d never be healthy and that the large intestine HAD to go. Well, Western medicine failed me but you did not!
