Vaidya Upasani Vishwanath Vishnu and Dr. Steele Belok will speak about Seasonal Wellness at the quarterly meeting of the New England Association of Professionals Practicing the Transcendental Meditation^® Program on Thursday, March 20 at 11:30 AM at the Copley Place Legal Sea Foods Restaurant in Boston. All are welcome, and reservations through the Association are required (instructions below).

The New England Association of Professionals Practicing the Transcendental Meditation Program is comprised of professionals who are interested in consciousness-based solutions to today's problems. Membership includes professionals from a wide variety of businesses in the Greater Boston area. They meet on a quarterly basis for lunch and speakers who have insight and experience applying these programs. Membership in the association is not required to attend their quarterly luncheons, and visitors are welcome.

The Transcendental Meditation Program is a simple, effortless mental procedure practiced 15 to 20 minutes twice a day, sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. Introduced by the late Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the Transcendental Meditation Program has been scientifically shown to decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease, decrease biological age, increase life expectancy, and decrease the use of drugs and alcohol.

Association President Dana St. James, the Legal Director at 3COM, will give a brief presentation on the life of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who passed away on February 5, 2008.

The featured speakers, Vaidya Upasani and Dr. Steele Belok, will talk about Maharishi Ayurveda and seasonal wellness. Ayurveda is a health system from India that has been successfully used for prevention and healing for over 5,000 years. The doctors will explain the Maharishi Rejuvenation program, which is an in-residence treatment program that focuses on removing impurities (ama) accumulated in bodily tissues and balancing the doshas (body's inner intelligence). The results are: visible rejuvenation, increased energy and vitality, and overall improvement in physical and psychological wellbeing. These treatments were once reserved for the kings and queens of ancient India. This program is particularly effective when performed at the change of seasons. The Maharishi Rejuvenation program and Seasonal Wellness consultations are available locally at the Maharishi Vedic Health Center in Lancaster, MA, which was twice named among the best spas worldwide (by Harpers and Queens in London, and The Rob Report).

Vaidya Upasani has over 35 years of experience as a professor, researcher and practicing Ayurvedic physician. He is a professor at the Department of Interpathy Research & Technology at Maharashtra University of Health Sciences in India. He has a Maharashtra Faculty of Ayurved Medicine degree from Mumbai, and a D.P.C. (Panchkarma), an M.D. (Ayu) and a Ph.D. (Ayu) from Pune University.

Steele Belok M.D. is a Staff Physician in Internal Medicine and Nephrology at Mt. Auburn Hospital, a regional teaching hospital closely affiliated with the Harvard Medical School, located in Cambridge, MA. Dr. Belok is also Co-Director of Maharishi Vedic Health Center in Lancaster, MA, which offers in-residence Panchakarma programs, Ayurvedic Day Spa services, Ayurvedic Wellness Evaluations, Maharishi Vedic Vibration Technology^SM, Maharishi Vedic Sound^SM therapy, and instruction in the Transcendental Meditation technique.
