About Ms. Geetanjali Chakraborty

What really lights my fire about Ayurveda is that food is the first line of defense and this science helps us gain a therapeutic understanding of food. The humble kitchen becomes a powerful force in bringing health back to our families. Ayurveda empowers us to become self-reliant by understanding our own constitution, and developing an awareness of imbalance, along with the knowledge of restoring balance. It is a completely revolutionary approach that empowers us with a democratized language for health.

Geetanjali is an independent Ayurveda Consultant. She has served as the Dean of Ayurveda Studies at Vedika Global. Geetanjali began her career as a molecular biologist at Georgetown and Stanford University’s research labs and, in 2015, became the first Ayurveda instructor in Stanford University’s Health Improvement Program, where she regularly teaches “The Ayurveda Algorithm.” She is a speaker/workshop instructor/panelist at various national conferences like the National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA), International Herb Symposium, Samuel Merritt University, California Institute of Integral Studies and Silicon Valley’s Health Technology Forum. As Chief Ayurveda Consultant, she pioneered Vedika’s donation-based clinic at the India Community Center in Milpitas, California and served over 300 clients.
