Planting the Seeds of Good Health through Ayurvedic Wisdom: Ayurveda is an ancient science of self-healing, a holistic science that teaches how to stay healthy and how to live one’s daily life in harmony with nature. Each person represents a specific combination of the five elements: ether or space, air, fire, water and earth. Each one is part of a much bigger picture. With a basic foundation in Ayurvedic principles one can learn how to keep oneself in balance, for overall well-being and happiness.
Class 3: Understanding and Balancing One’s Constitution to Improve Relationships
Our whole life is a relationship with friends and family, neighbors, employers, community, environment -- and more specifically, with our own selves. With a deepened sense and understanding of Ayurvedic principles we can begin to know ourselves in a truer sense.
You will learn about the positive and negative emotional tendencies of each dosha energy and become more in tune with your true nature, so that all your relationships improve.
