Yoga and Wellness Holidays

Over 5000 years ago a wonderful and comprehensive healing system called “Ayurveda” developed in India. Basically, Ayurveda aims to spread a better quality of life, acting not only on the body but also on the mind and soul.
Few are aware of the fact that many recent medical discoveries had already been studied in Ayurveda more than 5,000 years ago: for example, the study of genes and chromosomes had already been addressed and fully explained by this ancient Indian medicine.
According to Ayurveda, the Universe, the Macrocosm, the Microcosm and the Human Being are parts of the Panchmahabhoot, the 5 fundamental elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether.
The balance of these 5 elements ensure life in this Universe and in every living being; thus an excess of heat (Fire) in the planet Mercury, which is the closest to the sun, or the lack of heat (Fire) in the planet Pluto, which is the furthest away, prevents any form of life as, on the other hand, happens on the Moon for the lack of Air.
