If you’re like many of us, when you’re not feeling well, you jump headfirst into healing the symptoms — instead of pulling back, to work at the source point of your dis-ease.
Yet, to achieve radiant health that lasts, you must meet your individual needs as a complex, multi-layered person whose mental, emotional, and spiritual states all contribute to what’s happening inside you.
Western medicine often forgets that you’re a whole being and focuses on the elimination of separate symptoms, instead of uncovering their root.
Ayurvedic wisdom honors the profound connections between your mind, body, and spirit, combining physical, psychological, and spiritual health. Ayurveda, the ancient sister science of yoga, is a whole-body system for living that addresses imbalances before health challenges set in.
Ayurveda provides insights into your core energetics and metabolic patterns — known as doshas — and it includes a sophisticated system of herbal medicine specific to your makeup.
Your doshas determine which herbs will more effectively get to the root of what ails you or holds you back, so you can improve your health and wellbeing while you evolve spiritually...
Join us for a new 7-week course with world-renowned herbalist and teacher K.P. Khalsa and learn to use Ayurvedic herbs to heal from dis-ease, expand your mind, and propel your spiritual journey.
K.P. will share deep insights into your metabolic energy type — whether you identify most with Vata (cold and dry), Pitta (hot and wet), or Kapha (cold, heavy, and wet) — so you can heal yourself and balance your physical, mental, and spiritual systems.
When these energies are out of balance, they can cause seemingly unrelated disruptions in other aspects of your life.
K.P. will guide you to choose herbs that hold opposite energies from your own to adjust your imbalances so you can confidently begin your journey on the path to improving your digestion and sleep, reducing joint and muscle pain, regulating your blood pressure and cholesterol, and much more.
(Please note that while it’s certainly enlightening to have the herbs K.P. will feature each week, you’re not required to purchase herbs for this course.)
Join K.P. and learn to use herbs to sharpen and expand your mind, reduce mind chatter, and improve memory. You’ll also unlock ways to enable communication with your soul, forge a better connection with your spirit, and heighten your capacity to experience bliss.
What Is Vata?
What Is Pitta?
What Is Kapha?
In this 7-week transformational intensive, K.P. will guide you through the fundamental skills and competencies you’ll need to elevate your spiritual potential as you delve deeply into Ayurvedic herbalism and plant medicine practices.
You’ll connect with K.P. and experience his teachings through livestreaming video via any connected device. This connection is easy to use and will enhance the impact of K.P.’s transmissions. Or you can listen to just the audio by phone.
(Can’t make it live? No worries! After each class, the video and audio recordings will be available for you to download or stream in a high-quality format at your convenience.)
This course will feature LIVE teachings, interactive training sessions, experiential practices, and Q&A with K.P.. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to use Ayurvedic herbs to cleanse your body, defend against dis-ease, and balance your being at every level, expanding your bliss for years to come.

Ayurvedic herbalism is a portal or bridge to what can help you rise up to your own spiritual potential — cleansing the body, defending against dis-ease, and balancing the body, mind, and spirit.
As you embark on this 7-week course, K.P. will explain how Ayurveda is the ultimate healing system because it deals with energy.
The goal of Ayurveda is spiritual progress. Herbs are a deep part of Ayurveda, and they have hidden meanings to help you expand your mind and propel your soul journey.
In Ayurveda, many plants have spiritual names, such as the heart panacea, Arjuna, whose name means “untwisted” (in the personality, emotions, and spiritual power).
Almost all herbs in Ayurveda have physical, mental and spiritual properties. Depending on how you select, consume, and integrate them, you can use them to evolve in every area of life.
You’ll dive deep into how your energy system and doshas function, which will empower you to get healthy, stay healthy, and enhance your mind and spirit.
In this session, you’ll discover:

To continually develop the mind and make spiritual progress, we need to get healthy and stay healthy.
K.P. will share how, according to Ayurveda, physical health is the most important factor in managing the four goals of life: your path, your possessions, your pleasure, and your spiritual life.
Detoxification is Ayurveda’s primary tool for complete healing, and K.P. will explain how to use Ayurvedic energetics to understand the subtleties of core detoxification.
You’ll learn about special herbs and dietary practices that dig deep into the tissues to excavate old deposits that have been blocking ideal health, mental clarity, and spiritual progress.
You’ll study lesser-known Ayurvedic gems that penetrate deep into the physical tissues and mental channels to help you purify the liver, gut, and bloodstream, so your mind can rise to new heights.
In this session, you’ll discover:

K.P. will explain how, after after detoxification, you rebuild the tissues, including the digestive tract, skin, bones, muscles, and nerves...
Once you’ve taken these two steps, you can have a long life without more symptoms.
As a human, good energy, clear senses, and a robust immune system are your birthright. Unfortunately, Vata (the cold and dry tendency) is a destructive energetic force within the body. K.P. will explain how to control this force and build a strong foundation for the future.
By using some outstanding though lesser-known Ayurvedic herbs, you can live a longer life, which allows you to make more spiritual progress.
You’ll learn to apply Ayurvedic energetics to get to a healthier place, which herbs match you personally, and how to maintain positive results.
In this session, you’ll discover:

In the Ayurvedic perspective, all diseases start in the mind — the link between the body and the soul.
You’ll discover that anxious thoughts are mainly caused by Vata, while Kapha is usually the culprit in depression.
As K.P. will explain, you can treat problem thoughts with herbs that clear your mental channels of accumulated toxicity… mental techniques such as meditation and mantra… and a deeper understanding of Ayurvedic psychology.
K.P. will share popular Ayurvedic herbs that are known mainly for healing the body but possess profound mind healing properties, too.
If you’re like most people, your mind’s constant repetitions can interfere with your connection to your soul. K.P. will reveal how to move beyond your mind’s chatter and heal it so it can serve you — and free up time and space to connect with your soul.
In this session, you’ll discover:

Your mind is capable of much more than constant chatter — it can help you see the unseen and know the unknown.
K.P. will explain how your mind is meant to serve your soul’s purpose and make sure your body is giving good impressions to your soul. As long as your mind is fixated on something else, your life will feel limited...
You’ll learn how to use renowned Ayurvedic herbs to help train your mind to stick to its job — so you can improve your mind’s capabilities, live up to your highest potential, and experience true freedom.
In this session, you’ll discover:

Ayurveda and yoga are symbiotically components of the same system. The spiritual development elements of yoga go hand-in-hand with its practices.
K.P. will explain how the word yoga means “joining” — the aim of yoga is to help you join with your divine consciousness. As you’ll discover, herbs are a pivotal part of this journey. This week, you’ll explore this mystical side of herbs.
Ayurveda’s purpose is to help you experience your true Self. Once your mind has stopped distracting you (even a little) and is doing what it’s designed to do, you’ll experience exalted thoughts that reflect your true potential — so your witness consciousness can experience your true nature as a spiritual being...
As you evolve, you can stay in that state of spirit connection more often.
K.P. will share how Ayurveda has discovered herbs, and ways to use them, that can help catapult you into deep soul connection.
In this session, you’ll discover:

We are souls that inhabit a body, and can have ecstatic experiences within our souls.
We are souls that inhabit a body, and we can have ecstatic experiences within our souls.
The vibrations from certain herbs help you match the vibrations of the Universe and dive deep into your soul connection. From there, you can go even deeper into the mystic cosmos of your soul and experience your bliss.
Herbs can be the launching pad for this experience.
As this course comes to a close, you’ll learn about Ayurvedic methods and how to use herbs, as you delve even deeper into the connection with your true Self.
As your body detoxifies and rejuvenates, and your mind heals and opens, you’ll have more energy for soul exploration.
In this closing session, you’ll discover:
In addition to K.P.’s transformative 7-week virtual course, you’ll receive these special bonuses with leading visionaries and teachers to complement the course and take your understanding and practice to an even deeper level.

Explore the foundations of Ayurveda with K.P.’s 3-part teaching and accompanying guide. You’ll learn about The Science of Rasa Shastra, a sophisticated Ayurvedic branch of medicinal chemistry. K.P. will also share the 10 Essential Ayurvedic Herbs to support healthy stamina, sleep, libido, a pain-free body and a super-strong immune system. Finally, you’ll explore when and why to use the Guggul & Guggul Formulas.

In Ayurveda, beauty comes from within. The 5,000-year-old science is known for extolling the benefits of balancing the whole body, supporting digestive health, and optimizing energy. Ayurvedic medicine is celebrated for treating each individual according to her specific physical and mental needs. Ayurveda’s also got more beauty practices than you might expect — and all these routines and rituals do double duty, boosting your overall wellness while giving you a glow.

Food combining is the concept that some foods digest well together while others do not. According to Ayurveda, food combining improves the quality of digestion, assists the body in receiving a deeper level of nourishment, and positively impacts overall health. In this powerful teaching, you’ll discover how each food has a distinct combination of tastes and energies, with a specific effect on the digestive system and the body as a whole.

Are you curious about how the sciences of yoga and Ayurveda complement each other — and can enhance your life and your physical and mental health? In this 90-minute teaching, you’ll learn how to expand your awareness and reach your potential using techniques from Ayurveda, including herbs to sharpen your thinking, practices to master your mind, and philosophies for inspired living. You’ll explore how you can promote flexibility, muscular strength, stamina, concentration, and hormone balance.

Why can some people (seemingly) eat anything they want without gaining any weight? Metabolism is often the quick and acceptable answer, yet there’s much more to this mystery. In this fascinating 90-minute webinar, K.P. will share wisdom and practices that best suit various body types with different metabolisms.

Most Ayurvedic remedies come as powders or pills, but Ayurveda offers so much more. In this 90-minute teaching, K.P. will share an overview of the wide selection of preparations used in Ayurveda — including many that have only recently become widely available. You’ll learn about the neti pot and herbal wines for digestion, the heart, and beyond.

In this session from The Shift Network’s Plant Medicine Summit, rainforest herbalist Adriana Ayales and plant medicine pioneer David Crow discuss powerful spiritual herbs and plants that have been used for millennia to activate higher awareness, intuitive abilities, and deep healing on every level, including mental, emotional and energetic. These plants have long been used by monks, yogis, and shamans to boost brain abilities and assist meditation and prolonged states of concentration.

K.P. is one of the country’s premier herbalists, held in high esteem by his peers and by journalists who regard him as one of the best sources for cutting-edge information on herbal medicine... His articles not only contain the most recent research on the subject matter, but they also offer fascinating historical and/or folkloric tidbits — things that set his articles apart from those by other writers. I continue to look for opportunities to work with him again and I will call on him in a New York minute whenever the chance arises.

“I’ve never seen a course so well put together ever...”
I had never participated before in an online course. The packaging, presentation, inclusion, and Facebook postings created a wonderful, safe cocoon within which to participate.

The wealth of organization and ease of learning materials and support made this fun as well.
