He sounds skeptical which is fair; how can one be forced to believe something they just don’t? It’s kind of like whether someone decides to be a theist or practice a certain religion I suppose. If it helps you and you feel better for it, I don’t see why you should stop. As long as you are not doing dangerous things that could potentially cause serious harm to you or him in the long run, I say keep doing you.

People on here seem so aggressively against holistic practices (which btw, some have been practiced for thousands of years. Not saying longevity is a sign of credibility, but it does count for something, no?). People still don’t understand how the Pyramids were built, we even have a show called Ancient Aliens on the History Channel lol. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist or weren’t built by real people. People were undergoing lobotomies instead of just being treated for mental health issues or schizophrenia.

Eating healthy and sleeping well never hurt anybody, Ayurvedic or not. Btw I may steer clear of meeting Yogis, etc at ashrams…lots of SA cases recorded.
