Introduction Sankalpa Institute promotes interdisciplinary approaches in the fields of regenerative medicine and rejuvenation by uniting traditional medicine, modern science, and common sense. By considering multiple perspectives on wellness and the interplay between healing and the context and environment of healing, Sankalpa offers unique opportunities for comprehensive self-directed transformation utilizing natural therapies. The construction of our wellness clinic is geared to function as a center for Ayurveda Panchakarma therapies in addition to other healing arts modalities. We are also developing programs around the following disciplines of traditional medicine and wellness: yoga, traditional amazonian medicine, bioresonance therapy, and nutritional detoxification. Mission The purpose of Sankalpa is: To provide access to traditional, alternative, and complementary medicine in a way that addresses all aspects of the human experience and one's sense of wellness. To provide alternatives to conditions treated inadequately by western medicine. To create a platform to maximize the utility of local knowledge and resources. To extend the wisdom of traditional sciences by serving as an interface for education, research, biodiversity conservation, and community health services. To contribute to greater understanding in which the benefits of traditional, alternative, and complentary medicine may be understood and integrated into contemporary healthcare. Vision and Values Sankalpa is a Sanskrit word which means manifestation of one’s inner most will or destiny. It is our fundamental belief that herein lies the essence of true health as the first step to healing comes from the will to heal. Furthermore, by activating the innate intelligence of one’s true nature, an individual may find the tools for lasting health and inner peace that is at the heart of a true healing process. Unfortunately modern concepts of health and medicine based on contemporary attitudes often leads to confusion and limiting beliefs regarding how individuals can take a proactive role in activating their own healing process. Often times rather than promoting the healing intelligence that is dormant in every cell of the body, one's own actions out of ignorance ends up suppressing it. Sankalpa Institute is not only committed to providing treatments in various healing modalities. We are equally committed to education and research to promote more comprehensive understanding of the role of these therapies in the contemporary healthcare model. Our greatest hope is to see our efforts impact public health through inspiring greater self-awareness and increasing access to traditional medicine to larger populations. |
