Welcome What is Padmaja? What is Ayurveda? Journey Within

Welcome

You're a good person. Naturally curious. You work hard. Love an adventure.
But do you ever have days where you wonder what the hell you're doing? What's the point? What's it all for? You know, the big questions...

I'll let you in on a little secret: It's different for each of us. The key is understanding what that means for you. You're not a regular, cookie-cutter kinda guy/gal, so you don't deserve a cookie-cutter kinda life.

What is Padmaja?

From the Sanskrit ‘padma’ meaning “lotus” and ‘ja’ meaning “born” or “of”
Literally translated ‘of the lotus,’ or ‘lotus-born’

The lotus flower has been revered as a sacred symbol by many cultures throughout history. The ancient Egyptians worshipped it; the Chinese believed it powerful; as did the Mayans of Yucatan (Mexico); and most notably in India, where it is closely associated with Hinduism and Buddhism.

What is Ayurveda?

From the Sanskrit ‘ayu’ meaning “life” + ‘veda’ meaning ‘science’ or ‘knowledge’
Literally translated, ‘the science of life’

Ayurveda is the traditional Indian system of medicine. More than 5,000 years old, it is the first documented system of medicine in the world. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Tibetan medicine and early Greek medicine all have principals of Ayurvedic origin.

Journey Within

History and folklore are peppered with anecdotes of spiritual pilgrimage - trekking parched deserts in search of refreshing spiritual waters to quench our thirst and cleanse our souls. As human beings, it is in our nature to seek meaning and connection with something greater. So we busy our lives with things outside of ourselves - always striving for the next thing, constantly distracted, side-tracked, redirecting priorities... like finding another clue in a treasure hunt that doesn't seem to lead to any happiness. But you needn't journey so far. All the answers you seek, my friend, are within. They whisper softly. You just need to learn how to listen.

Are you...

• Seeking greater meaning, connection and purpose? • Wanting to be the best version of yourself? • Looking to amplify your place in the world? • Tired of striving and want to start thriving? • Keen to do less and get more? • Ready for some personal fulfilment to go with your career success? • Committed to improving your health and happiness? Then you're in the right place. Padmaja Ayurveda is about living with heart and soul. Our service offerings and the blog are designed to educate, inform, inspire and empower you to create a life you love. A life you feel deep connection with and that supports you on all levels - physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. I'm just like you. I've lived the life I thought I should be living - awesome corporate job, great salary, career advancement, investing in property... and let me clarify that there is nothing wrong with any of that! But I felt disconnected. Unappreciated. Like a little mouse on a wheel. Auto Pilot. Working hard. Pushing through but not seeming to get anywhere. I'm here to tell you - there is a better way. A smarter way. A way to achieve all that you want to with greater ease and flow. You will live with passion and purpose, feel empowered - not power-less - and will experience more freedom and inner peace than you ever thought possible. Sound like what you're after?
