Vaidya Mishra has been my Ayurvedic doctor for the past six years, and I have been continually blown away by his depth of knowledge and his simple, practical treatments.
He comes from a 5000 year-old family tradition of Ayurvedic physicians in India who cared for the kings and queens in times past, and specialized in dermatology.

"Vaidya" is a Sanskrit word, meaning Ayurvedic doctor. Mishra is a family name.
After six years of medical school, Vaidya Mishra interned for another seven years with his father to learn all of his family's subtle, medical secrets, including herbal formulation.

His products are like none I've ever known. They are full of energy and life, and inspiring aromas. I don't want to stop smelling them.
The secret, Vaidya Mishra says, lies in the constant care he uses to protect the subtle energy of the wildcrafted and organic plants. |
He avoids high heat and harsh chemicals when processing and preserving the herbs. In fact, Estée Lauder once tried hard to get the secret of his natural preservation system without chemicals.
The effect is immediate when you use his products—which range from soaps and shampoos to shaving creams, teas, tablets, oils and lotions—you feel like someone just breathed life into your pores.

The energy of the plants, which you feel in his products, is what heals the body, opens the channels and makes his products such a pleasure to use.
You can view his current product website at www.chandka.com, or call 888-324-2634.
He also teaches courses on Ayurveda from www.vaidyamishra.com. |
I spent the last two weeks in LA, redesigning Vaidya Mishra's labels and photographing his products.
Thanks to everyone who helped me with the label design last week.
Have a great week!

P. S. These photos are only a day old. Please be patient with his outdated websites and old product photos. |
