Balance at Work

We spend so much of our lives at work. What if that time could support our wellbeing rather than deplete it?

Workplace stress costs organisations in lost productivity, increased absenteeism, and employee turnover. Yet most wellness initiatives focus on intervention rather than prevention. Ayurveda offers a different approach: teaching people to recognise imbalance in its earliest stages, when it’s still easily reversible.

Our workplace wellness programs help teams learn to recognize early signs of imbalance, implement simple daily practices for sustained energy and clarity, and build cultures where people can bring their best selves to work. From half-day workshops to comprehensive ongoing programs, we provide practical tools that support both individual wellbeing and organizational success.

Ayurvedic Wisdom

Ayurveda Appreciation Program

Whether you're a health professional, a student studying natural health, or simply an individual interested in Ayurveda, this course is curated to meet your needs. Ayurveda is not just a system of medicine; it's a way of life that recognises the deep connection between human beings and the natural world. Ayurveda is all about understanding our connection to nature and the Laws of Nature that govern our existence. Throughout this course, we will explore the fundamental principles of Ayurveda and how they relate to our mind-body processes.

The course I undertook with Neerja has provided additional insights into human behaviour, the health and wellness of people, and how to integrate them to achieve a life of balance. I found this course extraordinarily helpful. And it opened my eyes to many things.

Glenda Lord

Neerja's approach in explaining Ayurvedic concepts, her understanding of applying these in the context of a Western lifestyle and her graciousness when considering the leap I have to make, not just to gain the knowledge but to be able and willing to practice my learnings in my life. Thank you, Neerja.
