To celebrate the approval of the National Policy on PICS (PNPIC), the PICS Bahia Network, in partnership with the Health Department of the State of Bahia (Sesab), with the Bahiana and other public and private entities, will hold the II May of the PICS, from the 23rd to the 28th of May, with in-person and remote activities, in several municipalities in Bahia. The program highlights on May 24, at 19 pm, the lecture "The place of Ayurveda in the Current Health System", with the doctor and Ayurvedic therapist Dr. José Ruguê Ribeiro Júnior and mediation by the Dean of Extension of the Bahiana, Professor Carolina Pedroza de Carvalho Garcia, and Professor Regina Puja Kinzer. The lecture will be broadcast live on the institution's official channel on YouTube.

Alongside practices such as integrative community therapy, Yoga, apitherapy, aromatherapy, bioenergetics, family constellation and chromotherapy, Ayurveda can be present at all points of the Health Care Network, primarily in Primary Care, with great potential for action. . One of the approaches in this field is the expanded view of the health/disease process and the global promotion of human care, especially self-care. The indications are based on the individual as a whole, considering him in his various aspects: physical, psychological, emotional and social.
