A little glimpse of Day 1 from the Inauguration to the Gala dinner 🪷

Honoured to participate in the 3rd International AYUSH Conference & Exhibition 2026 — a truly landmark gathering dedicated to advancing traditional systems of medicine on a global stage. 🌍🌿

It was a privilege to meet Prof. (Dr.) Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha, Secretary, Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India, whose visionary leadership continues to strengthen the global integration of Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy into mainstream healthcare.

This conference reflects a powerful vision — positioning AYUSH as a cornerstone of integrative, preventive, and sustainable healthcare worldwide. From knowledge exchange to collaborative research and policy dialogue, the collective commitment to holistic wellness is shaping the future of global health.

Wonderful to connect with many old friends and make new friends and share the Love for Ayurveda.

Did you know ❗️ Ayurveda believes that successful treatment is dependent upon of 4 pillars?

Those four pillars are called as “Chatushpada of Chikitsa” 👇🏼
1. Bhishag / Physician. Vaidya is another synonym for physician often used 🧑🏻‍⚕️
2. Upasthata / Ayurvedic Nurse/ attendant 👩🏻‍⚕️
3. Rogi / patient.
4. Dravya / medicine 🌿

❗️Chikitsa = treatment.
❗️ Chatushpada = chatuhu (four) + pada (limbs).

These four factors are mutually dependent on each other. When all of these four factors are favourable then the treatment will be successful ✅

This is a very interesting concept. In Allopathic medicine, it is often seen that the importance is only on the Medical practitioner and pharmaceuticals 💊 On the contrary, Ayurveda believes each of the four limbs has an important role.

Ayurveda emphasises the importance of Bhishag but it is considered that all limbs are equally important.

This really shows for a successful treatment a patient plays such an important role. A person needs to have the desire for health and self-healing. YES, your role in the treatment is so important! 🙌🏼

With Love, Karin and the Lakshmi team ♥️

Our Ginger Jam is a very special formulation dear to our hearts 💕 , as it was passed down to Karin by her Guru, Dr. L. Mahadevan 🙏✨🙏 .

This is not a jam you spread on your toast 🍞 , but a herbal medicine 🪴 which is taken directly off the spoon, or mixed in some hot water or milk. Depending on the individual’s constitution and digestive state, it may be taken either before or after meals.

This formulation is great for:
- Deepana/ pachana: awakens digestion & digests toxins 🔥

- Rasayana: rejuvenation, especially for the lungs 🫁💕

Available in store & online.

Today our students from the Ayurvedic consultant course are busy preparing sesame bindis (energy balls), using a mixture of white and black roasted sesame seeds that combined together resembles the Tao symbol ☯️, some ghee and spices.

Ridicously delicious and good for many reasons!

Do you use black sesame seeds in your cooking?

With their rich, nutty flavour, black sesame seeds are not only delicious but also exceptionally nutritious.

In Ayurveda, black sesame seeds are valued for their beneficial effects on Asthi dhatu (bone tissue). The oil extracted from these seeds, known as Tila Taila, is the primary base oil used in most Ayurvedic herbal formulations.

Black sesame seeds are rich in calcium, magnesium, fibre, zinc, B vitamins, phosphorus, vitamin E, copper, and iron—making them highly supportive for both body and mind.

10 reasons to include more black sesame seeds in your diet:
• Support healthy digestion
• Strengthen bones
• Promote strong hair and nails
• Support healthy ageing
• Aid lactation
• Help reduce inflammation
• Support heart health
• Contribute to respiratory and vascular health
• Help ease anxiety and nervous tension
• Support women during premenstrual syndrome

It’s remarkable how many health benefits are found in these small but powerful seeds.

We’ve transformed black sesame seeds into delicious bindis (energy balls) for a nourishing, satisfying snack.

A message for San Valentine’s Day 💌

🦢💜 This beautiful artwork was created by one of our clients after experiencing some Ayurvedic treatments at our clinic - the beautiful, talented and engaged artist

It is such an honour to see what an act of self-care can bring to life.
We believe that the invitation to surrender into the healing power of oils and touch is a potent door to creativity.
When the mind becomes still and the nervous system relaxes, inspiration flows, just like the golden stream of this peaceful panting 🍯

Self-care is not indulgence. It is an act of love.
And from that love, so much can bloom:
• a painting
• a new recipe
• a dance in the kitchen
• a song from the heart
• hands in the soil
• deeper connection with someone you cherish
• or simply a more compassionate relationship with yourself

Valentine’s Day is just a lovely reminder to gift yourself (or someone you love) the experience of deep nourishment and inner harmony. Ayurveda has a deep, loving, unique way to it.

When you fill your own cup with sweetness, love overflows naturally. 🤍

We would love that for you 💌
