Grand Opening for Lotus Healing Arts

May 9, 2008  ¥  3-7pm

302 Pearl Street

 

We are celebrating the opening of a new healing center!

 

Dr. Lad, renowned Ayurvedic physician, will lead Agni Hotra fire ritual and a blessing ceremony, and will also offer a public talk on "spirituality in everyday life".

There will be an open house and tours of the new solar-heated facility.

 

The North end of the Building at 302 Pearl Street has just been substantially remodeled, and is now the home of both Boulder Ayurveda and BalanceWorks.  The space has been designed to optimize passive solar performance and create a peaceful and healing environment.   Varadaan, Founder of Boulder Ayurveda, is the primary designer of the remodel work, and is also the creator of the Solstice Center, the larger building in which Lotus Healing Arts resides.  He is one of Dr. LadÕs advanced students and has been helping with the Ganesh Ayurveda Ashram project in Pune, India.  Riitta Ojala, Founder of BalanceWorks, is VaradaanÕs partner in business and life, and is co-founder of Lotus Healing Arts.
