see below * |
* Throughout the training, students will conduct 6 consultations and 6 follow-up assessments. Uniquely designed consultation-template forms are given to the students to help them easily, quickly, and with the highest quality, learn to conduct wellness consultations. Students quickly learn to determine dosha, root cause of imbalance, and offer the most gentle, effective, and enjoyable therapy suggestions. After each consult is prepared by students, the teacher reviews & amends it as needed, then the student offers the approved suggestions to their 'client'. After a few weeks they assess the results and offer any further suggestions if required. In the last class meeting students share their consults with the other students so all can learn from one another.
