Ayurveda(the study of life) is the holistic system of healthcare that developed in India alongside yoga, upwards of 5,000 years ago.

For yoga practitioners and teachers, Ayurveda can be a beautiful complement to your practice. Ayurveda invites us to take the same self-awareness of body, mind, and spirit we cultivate on the yoga mat and bring it into the rest of our lives. Sometimes called “the people’s medicine”, Ayurveda offers a toolkit of daily and seasonal health habits for self care.

Many yogis and yoginis find that when they discover Ayurveda, it rounds out their life, giving them an empowering framework for balanced health of body, mind, and spirit that supports ease and longevity on their yogic path. Ayurveda provides the opportunity to experience a truly holistic, conscious life.

In this workshop you will learn about:

-The basic principles of Ayurveda, including the different Ayurvedic body-mind types.

-How Ayurveda views our relationship to nature and why that’s so important for optimal health.

-Simple and natural daily habits that lead to improved sleep, digestion, and immune function.

-Seasonal tips for maintaining balanced health throughout the year.
