Auyerveda is a "science of life" that is over 5000 years old and originating from India. For those of us who are weary of the division between mysticism and science, Ayurveda offers a comprehensive system that connects all the dots in a way that is timeless. It is one of the only approaches to healing that has always taken into account not only the effects of climate, diet, and life style on health but also the subtle ways in which wellbeing is impacted by emotional and spiritual issues. Through a wide range of guidelines, Ayurveda presents strategies for releasing energies that are blocked as well as for improving longevity.
Did You Know? Ayurveda comes from the Sanskrit āyus (life), and veda (sacred knowledge).
According to Ayurveda, each of us has a unique mix of three mind/body principles which creates our specific mental and physical characteristics. These three principles are called Doshas. Most of us have one or two doshas which are most lively in our nature, with the remaining one(s) less significant.
