The Program

Level 2 - Ayurvedic Health Counselor

The Divine Feminine has called.

She wants you, your friends, family and communities to return to the simplest, but most powerful, ways of caring for themselves.

In Level 1 you learned about the HER rhythms, the cycles of nature, how to use food, and the elements to become the version of you that shines the brightest. Together we did deep work, unearthing what is hidden beneath the layers formed by our daily interactions and behaviors. You’re starting to hear the whispers underneath all the noise.

You’ve also learned how to take this wisdom into your community. To educate in the ways of diet and lifestyle that have the potential to drastically change the trajectory of a person’s life.

In Level 2 we continue our study of ancient methods for understanding pathology, how disease develops, deeper protocols for health and self-care, and the physical diagnostic tools, theory and philosophy for health coaching and case management.

​Prerequisites: Successful completion of the Level 1 Ayurvedic Wellness Coach program

The Shakti School will certify graduates in Divine Feminine Ayurveda that complete all educational requirements of our Levels 1 & 2 programs (600-hours total) as Shakti School Ayurvedic Health Counselors, offering you a listing on our directory of certified practitioners.

This ancient science is vast, and we go further still.

Level 2 is an opportunity to learn about the pathology. How dis-ease moves through the layers of the body – subtle to gross. We’ll further explore the ways in which we can read the messages being shared to deeply support each unique individual in finding balance.

You’ll learn additional tools for growth and health to guide yourself and others into more spaciousness for becoming. Together we’ll hone your intuition and provide structure for the potential of this knowledge to flourish through you.

This 300-hour program is perfect for the seeker looking to work 1-on-1 more deeply, and become a conduit for more radical change to take place.

Scope of Practice - Level 2

Graduates who are issued a certificate for the Ayurvedic Health Counselor program may use the information provided in this course for personal development and/or to guide individuals and groups through educational seminars and one-on-one sessions on the principles and practices of the Ayurvedic way of life and healing. This scope of practice emphasizes education on prevention of imbalances, addressing imbalances and on regaining wellness on all levels of being, using the life-enhancing modalities and philosophy of Ayurveda, Tantra and Feminine Form Medicine. Approaches include nutrition, lifestyle, meditation, psychospiritual approaches, health promoting herbal education, goal-setting (sankalpa/dharma work), and designing preventive and complementary health routines according to holistic principles.

Assessment tools are used to determine the Vikriti (imbalances) of an individual’s body/mind; they work to realign unbalanced states of the doshas, ama, agni, dhatus, and malas. Those who have obtained this certificate do not diagnose or treat diseases.

  • Meet with people one-on-one in the capacity of an Ayurvedic Health Counselor (with proof of proper insurance)
  • Lead Ayurveda workshops in your yoga studio and community centers​
  • Provide education around nutrition, daily routine, seasonal cleansing and rejuvenation, digestive health, meditation, and women’s womb wellness
  • Add Ayurvedic wisdom to your current yoga classes, bodywork practice or other healing modalities
  • Be a part of a supportive community of colleagues
  • Ownership of the beautiful Level 2 manual and "protocol" forms + handouts for easily creating a private practice
  • Be an official Shakti School practitioner, including use of brand and logo + membership in an exclusive club of published practitioners

Ayurveda divides us into mind-body types called do Ayurveda divides us into mind-body types called doshas, which simply means “that which is waiting to go out of balance.” Through observing patterns over thousands of years, the Ayurvedic sages discovered that some of us are like delicate orchids, some of us are like big, beautiful bullfrogs, and some of us are fiery creatures somewhere in the middle. 🌸⁠
⁠
🌀 Vata dosha is made of air and ether, and it’s the principle of movement, change and creativity. These are the people who are imaginative, expressive, quick, sensitive and full of ideas. ⁠
⁠
→ When Vata is in balance there is inspiration, freedom and flow. And when it’s out of balance, that same movement can turn into anxiety, overwhelm or feeling ungrounded.⁠
⁠
🌿 Kapha is the combination of the earth and water elements. Heavy, cool and damp, Kapha is the principle of stability, solidity and growth, that which builds and that which stays. ⁠
⁠
→ Kapha types are strong, grounded, reliable and emotional in that watery, loving way. When they’re out of balance, they might hold on a little too much - to things, weight and old grievances that don’t want to move.⁠
⁠
🔥 Pitta is made of fire with a little bit of water, and it’s the principle of transformation, of heat, of intensity, of that which takes one thing and turns it into something else. These are the fiery ones, the ones with strong digestion, strong opinions and strong focus. ⁠
⁠
→ They are bright, sharp and driven, and when they’re in balance they’re powerful leaders and visionaries. When they’re out of balance, that fire can get a little too hot, showing up as irritability, inflammation or pushing too hard.⁠
⁠
🦋 Ladies, Level 2 is starting in just ONE WEEK. In Level 2, we’ll take the study of the doshas to the next level, including tongue and pulse assessment, to help you and your clients find greater balance, ease and radiance. The doors are closing soon, so don’t wait.⁠
⁠
🌷 Interested in learning more about the doshas right now? Comment “179” and I’ll send you my podcast where we explore the three mind-body types.
Ayurveda is the science of life. 🌎🌺🦋 We Ayurveda is the science of life. 🌎🌺🦋 

We can understand Ayurveda as this beautiful art and philosophy that has been held for humanity for thousands of years. It’s really a study of nature - the way the seasons move, the way the body responds, the way you are uniquely made.

And maybe most importantly, it’s about understanding how you are different. Because in this wide, wide world of nature, everything is unique. Nature created delicate orchids and big, beautiful, chunky bullfrogs. Both are perfect. But each is totally different. 🐸🌷

Ayurveda says we’re all made up of these elemental patterns, and it divides us into mind-body types called doshas, which means “that which is waiting to go out of balance.” 

We were each both with our dosha or “type”—in other words, it’s not going to change.

Kapha is earth and water. When we feel into Kapha, we feel its heaviness, coolness and steadiness. Kapha is the mud, the structure, the part of you that builds and stays. It’s the bricks, the mortar, the thing that makes life feel safe and held.

People with more Kapha tend to be strong, grounded and resilient. Kaphas hold more substance - more muscle, more softness and more presence. And emotionally, there’s that beautiful watery quality of love, attachment, bonding and deep feeling. 🌊

They gather, they hold, and they stay.

Kapha’s ability to feel deeply, to trust their inner sense, to stay connected to what’s true… that’s their medicine.

Swipe for some reflections from the previously graduated Level 2 class about their experience. 👉🏼⁠
⁠
What we hear from Level 2 graduates is that: ⁠
⁠
👑 The smaller cohort allowed even more connection to the other women in the program.⁠
⁠
👑 There was a deeper sense of boldness and softness, empowerment and surrender, belonging and agency.⁠
⁠
👑 They finally felt embodied as a healer and a woman and ready to share from the heart without fear.⁠
⁠
👑 A deep sense that the material was embodied!⁠
⁠
👑 It helped many students to move directly from the Level 1 material into Level 2 so that they could keep momentum and continue to actively integrate the knowledge with the support of teachers, staff and fellow students in the second year.⁠
