Refresh your knowledge and refine your technique
During this 3-day intensive we will dive into the pulse reading technique taught by Vasant Lad and covered in the Art of The Pulse - Ayurvedic Pulse Reading live course held by AyurPrana in 2022 and the Secrets of the Pulse training offered live and as recordings in 2021, or any one of the weeklong intensives that The Ayurvedic Institute has hosted in the past.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE:
Access to this in person training is limited to those who have completed the AyurPrana Art of The Pulse (2022) online live training or The Secrets of The Pulse (2021 - live or recorded). You can also attend this training if you are a graduate of the ASP2 program at the Ayurvedic Institute or have taken one of the week-long Pulse Reading summer intensives hosted by The Ayurvedic Institute and taught by Vasant Lad, covering all 7 layers of the pulse.
You will need to present your certificate in person, and If you do not qualify we will not be able to let you attend the training so please be sure before you purchase.
Topics we will cover in this study-on-demand recorded course
Join Vasant Lad, BAM&S, MASc., Sneha Raichada, MPT, CAP, E-RYT-200, and Mitesh Raichada, CAP, in this learn-on-demand recorded course as they teach the small nuances around feeling, reading and gathering information through the subtle language of the pulse!
Introduction to Pulse and Building Sensitivity
Begin your pulse-taking journey by learning multiple strategies to increase sensitivity in your fingertips and enhance your subtle awareness. You will also gain an understanding of the basic characteristics of pulse, from rate and rhythm to force and form. This foundation will serve you for the duration of the immersion and your lifelong journey with pulse.
Technique - Prakruti, Vikruti
Dive into techniques for pulse-taking, from hand and finger placement to the optimal times of day. Learn the doshic association with each finger and each part of the finger, which prepares you for the concepts of Prakruti, doshic constitution, and Vikruti, doshic imbalance or the current state of the doshas.
Feeling the Organs
This is the week where you will learn the location of the 12 organs at the first and seventh levels of the pulse. You will begin to hone your skill of questioning to provide confirmation or clarification of what you’re feeling, which will serve you over the course of your pulse-taking journey.
The Dhatus
Learn the seven dhatus or tissues of the body, their function, and their location at the 5th level of the pulse. This pulse greatly deepens one’s Ayurvedic understanding of the body, the process of dis-ease, and how it may move from one tissue into the next.
The Subdoshas
We explore the 15 subdoshas, 5 each for Vata, Pitta and Kapha. This pulse will additionally build upon one’s understanding of the dhatus and organs in relation to the doshas and help piece together the story of one’s health through the pulse.
Ojas, Tejas & Prana
Learn about the fine essences of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha - in Ojas, Tejas and Prana. This level of the pulse illustrates how our physical, mental and emotional states affect not only our immunity but also communication, intelligence, and awareness at the cellular level.
Manas Prakruti, Vikruti & the Chakras
We will cover the most advanced levels of the pulse: our inherent mental constitution, or Manas Prakruti, and our current states of mind, Manas Vikruti, which are expressed in relation to eight deities and their personalities. Learn the physical, mental and emotional significance of each chakra and the implications if a chakra is “blocked."
Take this course if…
You are curious about the pulse, perhaps you’ve been exposed to a few practices and want to deepen your practical and physical knowledge of these techniques through an Ayurvedic lens while in community.
You are a medical or healthcare professional and want to experience and understand how reading the seven levels of the pulse can be employed for the benefit of yourself and your patients or clients.
You are an Ayurvedic Practitioner or professional interested in the opportunity to learn these core pulse-reading techniques, as taught by internationally-renowned Vaidya Vasant Lad, BAM&S, MASc, for use in your own practice for the benefit of your clients and community.
We do recommend a basic knowledge of Ayurveda for this online course. An understanding of terms like Doshas, Vikruti, Prakruti, Dhatus, Ojas, Tejas, Prana, will ensure you are able to follow along without interupting your own learning.
The recorded review sessions by either Sneha and Mitesh will additionally break down some of these topics, and moreover we will be able to address any questions that arise during the in-person session as well.
Learn a Master's Method
For over 50 years, Vasant Lad has relied on the pulse as an indispensable tool in his own consultations - in 2005 Vaidya Lad published Secrets of the Pulse: The Ancient Art of Ayurvedic Pulse Diagnosis through which many Ayurvedic practitioners learned or refined their method of pulse reading.
We highly recommend this book as a learning aid for those taking this immersion - this book can be purchased from our own Ayurvedic Press HERE

I’m totally new to Ayurveda. Is this going to make sense to me?
We do recommend a basic knowledge of Ayurveda for this online course. An understanding of terms like Doshas, Vikruti, Prakruti, Dhatus, Ojas, Tejas, Prana, will ensure you are able to follow along without interupting your own learning.
We will provide you with an introductory video on the concept of the five elements and the three doshas, which are foundational to understanding the first and seventh levels of the pulse that we will explore in Session 1. We are there to support you through our online community with any questions you have.
You will also have unlimited access to all of this material, so please revisit as much as you need to. Each visit will provide another layer of depth to your growing understanding!
Access to the in-person training is limited to those who have completed the AyurPrana Art of The Pulse (2022) online live training or The Secrets of The Pulse (2021 - live or recorded). You can also attend this training if you are a graduate of the ASP2 program at the Ayurvedic Institute or have taken one of the week-long Pulse Reading summer intensives hosted by The Ayurvedic Institute and taught by Vasant Lad, covering all 7 layers of the pulse.

I’ve tried learning pulse before but I wasn’t able to feel anything or understand what I was feeling. How can I know if this course will be different?
This is a common obstacle for many of us as we dive into pulse. You are not alone! We are simply not accustomed to this level of sensitivity in our fingers, but we can cultivate this awareness with dedicated, practice. We will have a full session on technique and different methods to enhance your sensitivity - and you can ask questions in our online community to troubleshoot your interpretation and technique!
Learning the art of the pulse is a life-long journey of discovery! The more you work with these techniques the more you begin to sense. Practicing and studying in a group, with the guidance of our instructors and the insights of Vasant Lad, can leapfrog you forward. A simple suggestion from Vaidya Lad can open up our experience and offer spaces to explore beyond that which we could have discovered on our own.
Trust us, it will come!
Is it possible to learn pulse virtually without someone to guide me in person?
There are absolutely benefits to studying pulse in person, where someone can physically guide your hand and sequentially confirm if what you’re feeling is accurate. Vasant Lad has effectively taught pulse over Zoom before, however, and with great success. The virtual setting also encourages participants to practice, practice, practice, and above all trust what they are feeling and their intuition, which is one of the greatest and most important skills to have in this art and science.
I’ve already studied pulse before with Vasant Lad in person or have taken Vasant Lad’s previous Secrets of the Pulse webinar series. How is this series different?
That’s amazing that you’ve already delved into the ocean of pulse!
The content will be similar to the previous webinar series and Vasant Lad’s teachings. This immersion format, however, focuses on coaching through the videos and support provided in the online community so you can refine technique and ask questions. Pulse is also a never-ending journey, so each time you learn and review the material, you gain a deeper understanding that will further evolve your art and skill.
How will I view the classes?
Our recorded classes and community support can be accessed through your own personal AyurLearn Portal. Instructions to access your AyurLearn Portal will be emailed to you shortly after you purchase the course.
