Swastha Vritta delves into the holistic principles of Ayurveda, emphasizing the significance of a balanced lifestyle for the preservation and promotion of health. This field goes beyond mere medical treatments, extending its focus to daily and seasonal regimens, encompassing various facets of day-to-day living. The comprehensive approach includes morning routines, practices of cleanliness, evening rituals, night routines, and adherence to Sadvritta, which encapsulates ethical conduct and virtuous living.
The department not only imparts theoretical knowledge but also provides practical education to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. The curriculum includes essential aspects of personal hygiene, strategies for preventing contagious diseases, and insights into preventive and promotive health measures. This multifaceted approach equips students with a deep understanding of how lifestyle choices and daily practices significantly contribute to overall well-being.
Moreover, the department places a special emphasis on practical training in Yoga and Nature Cure. This extends beyond traditional medical interventions, incorporating holistic practices that align with natural principles. A dedicated Yoga Unit affiliated with the department conducts sessions, including Yogasanas, early in the morning every day. This hands-on training not only enhances the students’ understanding of ancient wellness practices but also provides them with practical tools to incorporate these principles into their own lives and eventually share them with others. The integration of Yoga and Nature Cure into the curriculum underscores the department’s commitment to fostering a comprehensive and preventive approach to health and well-being.
