If you start your journey toward Ayurveda certification online and discover it’s not right for you – don’t panic!
We get it — investing in a new path can bring up fears. Here’s how we support you through the most common objections, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
Yes — and it’s an investment that pays you back. Unlike short workshops or self-help books, this program equips you with real, income-generating skills. You’ll walk away with the tools to start your own practice, create offers, and begin earning through Ayurveda. We also offer flexible payment plans to make this accessible and offer scholarships yearly.
This program was built for real life. You have 12 months to complete the certification at your own pace. Many of our students are working full-time, raising families, or managing businesses. The structure is flexible, and you can watch replays of all live sessions. You don’t have to finish fast. You just have to begin.
This course is more than just a certification. Even if you don’t plan to practise professionally, you'll gain deep personal transformation. Students use this training to heal burnout, regulate their nervous systems, and return to balance — with the option to share Ayurveda later if they choose. Come for the healing. Stay for the dharma. We have the Embodiment Pathway, which is our personal path that requires no exams.
Absolutely — no prior experience needed. We guide you from the ground up with trauma-informed, supportive teaching. You’ll never be expected to know it all — just to show up, be curious, and grow. Healing isn’t linear. Neither is learning.
This course meets you exactly where you are. You don’t have to be in perfect health to study Ayurveda — in fact, many of our students begin this journey because they’re looking for real healing. Whether you’re navigating burnout, anxiety, gut issues, hormonal imbalance, or simply feeling out of sync — Ayurveda gives you the tools to reclaim your vitality, one ritual at a time. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about learning how to honour your body’s cycles, needs, and natural healing wisdom — with compassion.
Yes! This training is 100% online with global access. You’ll get live session recordings, downloadable resources, and access to instructors no matter where you’re located. We’ve had students from across Australia, New Zealand, the US, UK, and beyond.
This is your grounding thread. Ayurveda weaves together everything: nutrition, breathwork, yoga, psychology, somatics, and nervous system regulation — all under one holistic, time-tested system. One path. Infinite healing.
You’ll be certified as an Ayurvedic Health Consultant (Level 1) through the Ayurveda Alchemist® Academy — a well-respected training provider rooted in classical Vedic lineage and modern practice. You’ll graduate with 300+ hours of certified training and a pathway into Level 2 Clinical Practitioner training. This is professional-level training with real business outcomes.
We get it — and we’ve built connection into everything. You’ll attend live Zoom calls (or watch replays), connect inside our vibrant student community, and get hands-on experience through assignments and practice clients. Plus, you’ll have the option to join us for in-person retreats and trainings.
“I’m worried I’ll feel unsupported.”
You won’t be walking this path alone.
In Level 1, you’ll be assigned a Key Mentor to support your learning journey. In Level 2, you’ll also be matched with an Intern Supervisor for clinical case support. Plus, we host live calls, a private community, and mentor access throughout.
This is mentorship-driven learning — not DIY.
