“Swasthasya Swashya Rakshanam Aturasya Roganut”
“The aim of Ayurveda is to protect the wellbeing of healthy people and to cure the diseases of sick people”.
- Charaka

Ayurveda New Zealand brings the ancient Indian medical system of Ayurvedic health and wellbeing to Auckland since 2010 - and to workshops held on request across New Zealand.

“Ayur” means life and “veda” means knowledge or science hence Ayurveda is often translated to mean the “Knowledge of Life”. Although Ayurveda has a history of over 5000 years, its principles are still equally applicable in modern New Zealand lifestyles.

At Ayurveda NZ we look to understand the root cause of an imbalance in order to correct the underlying condition or disease, rather than only treating the symptoms. Focused on maintaining mental and physical health from a holistic perspective, Ayurveda is also an excellent form of preventative medicine and rejuvenation.

The wisdom of Ayurveda encourages individuals to actively participate in maintaining their own good health in alignment with the different stages of their lives, the seasons, and the environment they live in.

At Ayurveda NZ we acknowledge the unique nature of each person and apply dietary, lifestyle, body therapies, and herbal remedies to assist in transformational processes.

Ayurveda NZ's Ayurvedic practitioners

Sarita Solvig Blankenburg 

Sarita is the Founder and Director of Ayurveda New Zealand an Ayurvedic clinic in the heart of Ponsonby, Auckland.

More recently Sarita has developed and run her first Ayurveda Panchakarma retreat at Parohe on Kawau Island with another scheduled for November 2022.

Sattva Botanicals™ is the product brand for an Ayurvedic medicine range developed and launched by Ayurveda New Zealand in 2020. The range includes a Woman’s Health Formula, Mental Health Formula and over twenty other products derived from medicated powders, oils, and traditional Ayurvedic formulas, all certified organic and sourced from sustainable growers in India.  

Born and raised in Germany, Sarita holds a MBA from Tuebingen university in Germany and has worked and lived in various countries during a corporate career of almost ten years with an international IT company. While enjoying the challenges of a demanding Hong Kong based assignment, she began to notice increasing stress related health issues. After experimenting with different modalities and not finding any satisfying answers, she visited her first Ayurvedic doctor who introduced Ayurvedic practices and Yoga into Sarita's life opening the door to a completely new world. This experience awakened an inner calling to learn more about Ayurveda and Yoga. 

Today Sarita sees herself as an ambassador for Ayurveda & Yoga in New Zealand. Her vision is to introduce these ancient sciences to modern society so others can live a more healthy, happy, and fulfilling life. The skill set developed during her corporate career in sales and marketing and product development, together with three years of Ayurvedic diploma studies, have been invaluable in building her fast growing Ayurveda New Zealand business.

Sarita is a passionate public speaker and presents her topics with enthusiasm and compassion, inspiring her listeners to incorporate Ayurvedic principles into their daily lives.
