What is Ayurveda?

In Sanskrit, Ayurveda, directly translates to “The Science of Life”. Ayurveda has been preserved as an ancient medicine for over five thousand years. Finca Victoria is the only Ayurvedic hotel in the Caribbean. We have lovingly dedicated our land, knowledge, and efforts to sharing this transformational lifestyle with our guests. You will experience the life-altering elements of this methodology simply by being present here— by sleeping in our mindfully designed rooms, sipping Ayurvedic infusions, and eating well-balanced and easily- digestible foods that evoke feelings of lightness and contentment.

One of the main teachings of Ayurveda is that there is no one path for each of us to walk on our journey of health. Ayurveda teaches that wellness is an individualized system which focuses on our unique compositions and needs. It is a medicine that acknowledges healing as a consistent and personalized journey. To regain balance and keep harmony in the body, Ayurveda guides us to explore who we are, learn about our personal blueprint (known as doshic state), and harmonize with our surroundings.

Through Ayurveda, you will discover that finding joy and harmony in our modern existence is a lot easier than what we have been led to believe. We simply have to go back to the basics. Ayurveda and yoga remind us that we are part of nature. They guide us to sync with nature’s cycles, rhythms, and knowledge.

This Holistic system is intricate and beautiful, yet simple and accessible— a fabric masterfully woven to encompass nutrition, herbs, body therapies, yoga, daily rituals, and astrology.

This ancestral wisdom helps us create a bridge between the constant communication of our physical vessel with our surroundings. The more we understand ourselves, the better partner, friend, and family member we become.
