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.

Core Components of Level 2:

  • The pathways of dis-ease, how disease develops
  • Introduction to diagnostic tools including pulse, tongue and eyes
  • More therapies for pacifying the doshas, cultivating sattva, and balancing the gunas
  • Ayurvedic counseling methodologies & case management
  • Launching your Ayurveda Business
  • Deepening your feminine-form Ayurveda
  • Ayurvedic pregnancy loss support
  • Men's health
  • Ayurvedic approach to easing menopause
  • Additional ways to identify and treat Ama in the body
  • Ayurvedic Oral and Eye Care
  • Graceful aging and the needs of Elders
  • Ayurvedic needs of children and babies
  • Protocols for common conditions
  • Attachment theory as it relates to coaching
  • Women’s Health - Emotion Processing, Sexuality and Somatic/Trauma Unraveling
  • Ayurvedic Herbology - commonly used formulas and healing oils, tinctures, teas, salves and other health-boosting preparations
  • Yoga for Dosha and Marmavidya (Ayurvedic Energy Point Healing)

Upon Completion of the Program

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

Feminine-form of spiritual expression is a big par Feminine-form of spiritual expression is a big part of Ayurveda too. Because even though the Ayurvedic texts were written by men, it was the women who largely practiced and developed the tradition on the day to day, down in the trenches of life. These women were busy taking care of their families and villages with Ayurveda – they didn’t have time to sit and write or meditate for hours.⁠
⁠
And that’s who Tantra is for. The householder, not the monk.⁠
⁠
Are you a monk? Probably not. ⁠
⁠
If you’re a woman who wants to enjoy her life in all the earthly, sensual, spiritual ways, Tantra and Ayurveda offer THE theoretical marriage that can help you get there. ⁠
⁠
Tantra is integrative, and the way we teach it in The Shakti School allows the practitioner to love her life, her partner, and her mess of a house, without feeling less-than a perfect yogini, A Divine Mother, or an Aphrodite Goddess of Love.⁠
⁠
Oh, and the best part? Tantra embraces ALL religious traditions, or none at all. ⁠
I believe Tantra is one of those philosophical systems that we have so much still to unravel and learn from. It's mysticism for the woman who wants it all in her modern life: spiritual fulfillment, worldly success by her own terms, a loving romantic partnership AND a life outside of her romantic partnership.⁠

📚 How are women using their Ayurveda certificat 📚 How are women using their Ayurveda certifications in the real world?

We get this question a lot. This is purpose + practicality, soul meets paying the rent. :-) And yes, we love helping women make money with meaningful work (if that’s what they want to do).

Here are the top real ways our grads are using their Ayurveda Health Coach training:

🌸Private 1:1 Coaching. Support clients with digestion, hormones, stress, sleep, nervous system health and seasonal rhythms. Deep, transformational work.

🌸Women’s Health & Hormone Support. Menstrual health, perimenopause, menopause, fertility, adrenal fatigue and burnout recovery, helping women feel at home in their bodies again.

🌸Corporate Wellness & Burnout Prevention. Lunch-and-learns, workshops and nervous-system education for teams and leaders. High demand, high impact and often well paid.

🌸Group Programs & Online Courses. Scalable 6–8 week offerings like digestive resets, seasonal cleanses, nervous system repair or feminine vitality.

🌸Retreats, Immersions & Women’s Circles. Ayurveda + food + ritual + rhythm + rest = life-changing containers.

🌸Integrative Health Clinics & Wellness Centers. Work alongside functional medicine doctors, acupuncturists, chiropractors and more, filling gaps modern medicine can’t.

🌸Content Creation, Writing & Education. Blogs, Substack, social media, books, podcasts and workshops. Teaching is a powerful healing path.

🌸Postpartum, Caregiving & Recovery Support. Supporting new mothers, caregivers and those healing from illness or long-term stress. Tender, needed work.

🌸Spiritual & Personal Development Coaching. Ayurveda also supports energy patterns, emotional digestion, purpose and rhythm, often blending with yoga, meditation and trauma-informed work.

🌸Building a Conscious Business or Brand. Wellness brands, product lines, education platforms—Ayurveda as the foundation of a bigger vision.

The deepest truth? This wisdom is deeply needed, and there is real demand for it.

Whether you want to make this your career or simply do it for yourself (about half our students do), our program begins Wednesday. This is your time.

⁠
In this free 1-hour class, Katie Silcox and The Shakti School team reveal Feminine-Form Tantra, a spiritual path that does not ask you to leave your body, silence your desires or renounce your life in order to be spiritual.⁠

Instead, it invites you deeper into it.⁠

Inside relationships⁠
Inside emotions⁠
Inside pleasure⁠
Inside the mess and the magic of being human⁠
⁠
In this complimentary live workshop, you’ll learn:⁠
⁠
✨What Tantra actually is (and what it is not)⁠
✨Why spirituality that excludes the body eventually fails women⁠
✨ How emotions, desire and discomfort become sacred fuel⁠
✨The link between Ayurveda, Tantra and the embodied nervous system⁠
✨ Why pleasure and beauty are forms of spiritual intelligence⁠
✨How to stop separating your “spiritual life” from your real one⁠
⁠
This is mysticism for women who want it all.⁠

Depth without dogma.⁠
Spirit without renunciation.⁠
Truth without shame.⁠
