Ashvarttha - December - January 2014

ASHVARTTHA, the wellness magazine, is an enthusiastic and zealous start up effort to render holistic views about life and well-being; mind, body and soul. Ashvarttha, which means tree of life, takes its inspiration from the ancient wisdom on wellness and guides its readers on how to live a life full of happiness and good health.  

The root of man is his spiritual self. For the mystical tree of life, man is the inverted Ashvarttha tree from the Hindu scriptures, particularly the Vedas, which has its roots in heaven and the branches on earth. Also called the peepal tree, it has a significant place in ancient knowledge.  

The wellness industry is one of the world’s most explosive success stories today. Rich with therapeutic traditions reaching back into the past, these alternative philosophies of wellbeing may not be new, but with the growing global interest in general health and improving the quality of life, they are enjoying a wide resurgence of popularity.
