Ayurveda is a complete system of health that embraces holistic diet, lifestyle habits, herbs and detoxification therapies individualized for each metabolic body-type called Doshas. Translated as “the science of life,” comes from a volume of books called the Vedas which originate in India from over 5,000 years ago, and is now taught in prestigious universities, schools and organizations all across the world.
One of the most beautiful and unique aspects of Ayurveda is the level of self-responsibility it encourages and deems possible. Through the learning of some basic and easy to manage tools, it is possible to artfully apply balance in our mind and body. Ayurveda explains the relationship certain foods can have on the quality of our thoughts, as well as environmental shifts on our body, and even how our intentions can directly effect the outcome of our goals. Ayurveda is truly a practice of self-inquiry. Ayurvedic tools such as diet, body-work,yoga, and herbs are used to optimize inner contentment and balance.
A cornerstone in Ayurvedic philosophy is the concept of Doshas. Like Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, is based on a five elemental theory. Those five elements are air, ether, fire, water and earth. Everything in the universe is made up of some combination of the elements, weather it be a quality in food or in the mind, or imbalance in our physical body. How these elements pair together are further categorized into Doshas. People exhibit one or more of these Doshas in their mind/body types. Read more information about Doshas…
