Body Mind and Spirit
Health and Well-being are an integrated part of our regular programs. We focus on natural health care, nutrition and family support services including addiction rehabilitation programs. The health care program integrates primary health care with proven health techniques such as yoga, energy healing, healthy food growing and preparation, Awareness Through the Body and mindfulness and sports/exercise – all of which are designed to maintain a state of balance and harmony within the body, mind and spirit.
We have regular health check ups with PIM’s hospital. Auroville dental and eye clinic’s for students and adults and host health camps with these partners that are open to everyone.
We aspire to make health and well being part of our everyday reality and have increase our attention on daily nutrition for the students and their overall individual development needs.
Alcohol Awareness and Addiction
Well being is augmented with an alcohol awareness program and de-addiction service as many homes struggle with the effects of alcoholism.
In 2016 the youth of Thamarai created a well-being campaign to counter alcohol in Edayanchavadi village that birthed a focused effort to tackle alcoholism. Today Thamarai has a counseling and de addiction support service and is augmented by occasional campaigns to raise awareness. Thamarai team work closely with the AA association supporting the establishment of meetings and offering financial support for people to attend 30 day de addiction programs and ongoing counseling.
