Today we’d like to introduce you to Meenakshi Gupta.
Meenakshi, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
I grew up surrounded by an Ayurveda and Homeopathy. My mom is a homeopathy doctor and, I am an Ayurveda Practitioner and a Panchkarma (Detox) Specialist. Ayurveda is the science of life which endows us with those indispensable tools to live a long healthy and meaningful life.
I was very keen on pursuing the scientific approaches in Alternative health care since from the inception of my career. During my learning journey, I learned the nitty grittier of Ayurveda principles, the role of the right diet, Ayurvedic therapies and Panchakarma. I simply fell in love with the Ayurvedic approach to health and wellness. After getting my bachelor’s degree in Ayurveda, I wanted to have a deeper level of understanding of this science of life. Hence, I ended up pursuing MD in Ayurveda and got specializing in learning disabilities and, Enuresis (Bed wetting) in children. That was a huge transformation for me where I learned the vital role of diet, herbs, lifestyle and mental health in the well-being.
Marriage brought me to the United States. As a new immigrant, I perceived the requisite of fully Qualified Ayurveda practitioners to help people suffering from chronic illnesses using a holistic approach. Also, I wanted to deliver the authentic knowledge of Ayurveda to the community. And this resulted in the creation of AyurRoots Ayurveda Wellness. At AyurRoots, we offer a unique approach to one’s health and wellness. We combine the age-old wisdom of Ayurveda with the right diet according to body type, season and health, Ayurveda Therapies and provide an individualized wellness plan that fits one’s lifestyle and needs. Our motto is” Cultivate Roots of Wellness with Ayurveda”.
Dealing with illness is certainly not easy. Many people come to AyurRoots Ayurveda Wellness Center simply because they are out of medical options or they have given up on whatever treatment plan they are on. We have many clients who have chronic health conditions. Here at AyurRoots Wellness Center – it is our goal to educate and inform health seekers about longevity secrets of Ayurveda & provide optimum health naturally via Ayurveda which leaves us better self-sufficient.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
I am absolutely convinced that smooth, linear paths of evolution happen only in mathematical hypotheses or in dreams. The journey has been composed of cliffs, Mobius strips, and surprise pitfalls. Lack of proper awareness is the major challenge. Ayurveda is still unknown to the majority of the people in the Western world including common man and other health care providers. This lack of exposure has been more challenging as insurance companies do not cover Ayurveda treatments in their healthcare plans. However, now there is an increase in awareness about Ayurveda and other Complementary and alternative health care services.
AyurRoots Ayurveda Wellness – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
AyurRoots is the most comprehensive alternative health care facility in the Plano area offering full-fledged Authentic Ayurvedic Services. We offer a more natural and healthy way to lead your life. A meaningful life, as Ayurveda states, should be like that of a banyan tree – with numerous branches, providing shelter and shade to all that come under it. The multiple aerial roots of the Banyan tree going earthwards symbolizes the fact that AyurRoots believes multiple resources are required to attain better health. These roots also stress the fact that paths may be many, but the goal remains one – better health. AyurRoots symbolizes the commitment to the most authentic and ethical Ayurveda as proposed by this ancient health science over the millennia for providing better health to all.

The procedures dig deep into our roots and rejuvenate our body, mind, and soul and maintain equilibrium. It is one of the most effective healing modality in Ayurveda. It promotes Detoxification and Rejuvenation.
He gratified thing about AyurRoots is the support we are getting from the community, outstanding results and content reviews from our clients. This really makes us proud of AyurRoots and our Ayurveda practice.
What sets us apart-

What is “success” or “successful” for you?
I tend to view success incrementally. As someone who is invigorated by new, complex challenges, I never want to find myself in a situation where I feel like there is nothing left to learn or achieve I find success is in leaving a positive mark on this world. I feel that well balanced healthy life awaken us to new ways of being in the world. It is in the presence of inner beauty through wellness where we feel most alive and the needs of our soul are satisfied. Ayurveda can uplift our world and success for me is marked by how my clients feel when they encounter an AyurRoots Ayurveda Wellness center. Success, for me, will always be about making a difference in other people’s lives. If I know that at the end of the day my work has helped someone in their wellness journey.
For me, the real marker for success is my clients when they meet their wellness goals, and when my clients refer me to their family and friends. That is really the highest compliment.
