HOLISTIC AYUR-VEDA
The term Ayur-Veda is well known both in India and in the Western world. Much of what is called Ayur-Veda today in India and around the world has, in fact, been fragmented, lost or forgotten over time, or known to just a few experts. The effect of foreign invasions of India, including the British, has been very detrimental to the knowledge and practice of Ayur-Veda. The knowledge has been distorted through incorrect translations, the practice of Ayur-Veda has been disrupted and in many cases prohibited.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Rannie, Ragnhild Boes
All the qualities of mother—they are the most vital expression of Creative Intelligence, because motherhood is all creative. It has the value of maintenance, but first and the basic valueof motherhood is creativity— ability to create. And she creates out of herself, so what she creates is her own expression.’ —Maharishi, 2 May 1971
The mother is the most precious possession of the nation, so precious that society advances its highest well-being when it protects the functions of the mother" Ellen Key, 1914 Swedish author.
When Mommy is happy, baby is happy. Baby senses at a deep level the state of mother's well-being and responds accordingly.
There is a great gap in the care offered to new mothers in our society.-A new mother should be pampered and cared forso she can rejuvenate rapidly and fully. She is the key to the happiness o the family.
Contacting Rannie, Ragnhild Boes
How to get started
The cruel facts of life show that about 80 % of new mothers experience the 'baby blues'. And about 15 % suffer from Postpartum Depression. 'What is there to be depresseb about' some men ask. Frequently a woman is exhausted after long hours of delivery, nine months of pregnancy and all the new challenges of motherhood. Being on call 24/7, never getting a full night's sleep, being up wih the baby nights, feeding or changing the baby, loads of laundry, cooking, cleaning, visitors, no time to rest. Simply overwhelmed, fatigued, feeling incable as a mother, isolated and lonely - and getting depressed.
This should be the happiest time in a woman's life. Something is needed here. A well-structured, comprehensive care plan for new mothers. The Mother and Baby program - specifically designed to aid mothers in rapif rejuvenation after childbirth.
