We actually made the oils ourselves rather than watching a demonstration. Kashaya Kalpana and the decoction work were the highlights. I have been making my own oils at home ever since and they turn out exactly as taught.

What is the concept of herbal oil making in Ayurveda?
Classical Ayurveda mentions the importance of taila kalpana or Ayurvedic herbal oil in healing the body, soul, and mind right from the root cause. Preparing herbal oil requires the most traditional Ayurvedic knowledge mentioned in the ancient Vedic scriptures and texts of Ayurveda.
To prepare the oil, one must have the wisdom of the correct herb and technique of formulating it into medicines and herbs. These oils are used not only professionally but also in daily Ayurvedic care regimens. Ayurveda uses herbal oils in its various treatment components like massages, Panchkarma, and other healing therapies.

Authentic reviews from our global community sharing their journey of learning, healing, and transformation at Haritha Ayurveda Academy, Rishikesh.
Very practical course. The Shodhan of herbs section explained why purification matters before preparation, which nobody had ever taught me properly. Teachers know the classical texts but keep it simple.
I run a small natural skincare business and joined to learn authentic methods. Leha and Vati preparation were new to me. Everything uses simple ingredients I can source back home, which was my main worry.
Came in with no Ayurveda background at all. The introduction and body type analysis on day one made the rest make sense. Five days is short but they use every hour of it well.
The precautions and contraindications section was genuinely useful — they are honest about when not to use an oil rather than presenting everything as harmless. Certificate came through on the last day.
Small group, plenty of hands-on time and a beautiful setting in Rishikesh. The Indian herbs and spices module changed how I cook as well as how I make remedies. Would happily come back for another course.
