 Sarita Blankenburg, the founder and director of Ayurveda New Zealand, is a passionate public speaker and presents her topics on Ayurveda with enthusiasm and compassion, inspiring her listeners to incorporate Ayurvedic principles into their daily lives. We offer a wide range of seminars covering all aspects of health and wellbeing. Our team of Ayurvedic practitioners can come to your premises, or arrange sessions off site, either at an event center or in a day retreat setting. Of course we can also present tailor-made webinars designed for your team goals online, or create modules to complement your company wellbeing program. Understanding Ayurveda can help your people take care of their own mental and physical health. 

Ayurveda offers a holistic approach which helps through diet, lifestyle, herbal medicine and Yoga therapy to regain balance, energy, and quality of life. The wisdom of Ayurveda encourages people to take responsibility for their own health in alignment with the different stages of their lives, the seasons, and the environment they live in. It acknowledges the unique nature of each person through individual constitutions (Doshas) and applies dietary and lifestyle adjustments, body therapies, and herbal remedies to assist in optimal physical and mental wellbeing.

This workshop focuses on Ayurvedic concepts and tools to manage the stressors of our modern world we live in. 

Your team will get an introduction to Ayurveda, its history and philosophy, with a specific emphasis on a ‘Sattvic Lifestyle' to facilitate a calm and resilient state of mind. 

Sattva is one of the three universal energies and represents intelligence, creative potential and equilibrium. Sattvic qualities of the mind are clarity, alertness, attentiveness, love, compassion, and cooperativeness. Through Sattva, awareness is manifested as happiness, joy, bliss and contentment. A sattvic mind is cheerful, has great memory, concentration and patience. A person with a sattvic mind embodies a profound wisdom, great deal of enthusiasm, skill, creativeness, courage, confidence, and vitality. Ayurveda offers a whole range diet and lifestyle principles as well as cleansing procedures which cultivate a sattvic mindset. 

Sarita is passionate about sharing knowledge on woman's health ~ her enthusiasm to live a conscious balanced life is contagious! I booked a workshop for my whole team and Zoe and Morgan, and we all bounced into work this morning feeling inspired to not only learn more, but to work with our natural body system. Sarita left us all wanting to know more, booking my consultation now."

— Zoë Williams, Creative Director Zoë & Morgan

Through Ayurveda NZ workshops and consultations I have learned so much about Ayurveda & how it can help. Sarita has been amazing to help improve my health and wellbeing. She is so experienced and her calm kindness makes any challenge easy to take on. I strongly recommend her to anyone that is finding traditional western medicine not giving you the help or improvements you need."

— Jules Imlah, Executive, Auckland

I thoroughly enjoyed attending one of Sarita’s Ayurveda Women’s Health workshops recently. Sarita has a real depth of knowledge and a tangible passion for Ayurveda and the health benefits it can deliver. Her workshop was informative and uplifting and I came away feeling much more energised and prepared for the years ahead. Her suggestions around how to achieve a fuller sense of personal wellbeing are practical and easily incorporated into daily routines. Sarita herself has a very approachable and warm-hearted manner that you makes you feel completely at ease. I will definitely be attending future Ayurveda workshops and will be recommending to friends and family too."

— Daniel Norri, Lawyer

I would thoroughly recommend this workshop to all women. It's such an important area of women's health and we need to engage with the subject and understand it more. Sarita is an engaging speaker and the workshop gives lots of helpful information and advice."

— Jane Evans, Pilates teacher at Re:ab

I recently attended Sarita's workshop on Womens health and menopause. I absolutely loved the talk. The Ayurvedic approach to looking at your symptoms in relation to your Ayurvedic dosha (body type) really resonated with me and made so much sense. She presented lots of information in a very logical way. I left feeling empowered with lots of easy to implement strategies to make the menopausal years more manageable - even enjoyable ! I would highly recommend this workshop to all women."
