About this Event
Step into the world of Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old holistic healing system from India that teaches us how to live in harmony with our body, mind, and environment.
In this introductory class, you’ll explore the core principles of Ayurveda—particularly the concept of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Each dosha represents a unique blend of the five elements (earth, water, fire, air, and ether) and governs specific physiological and psychological functions. Understanding your dosha constitution can help you: Personalize your nutrition, exercise, and daily routine. Improve digestion, energy, and sleep. Cultivate greater emotional balance and mental clarity. Prevent imbalances before they become illnesses.
What You'll Learn:
-The foundational philosophy of Ayurveda Characteristics of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha
-How to identify your unique dosha type
-How imbalances show up and how to bring them back into balance
-Practical lifestyle and dietary tips based on your dosha
This class is perfect for beginners or anyone curious about natural approaches to health. You'll leave with tools to begin applying Ayurvedic wisdom to your daily life—gently, mindfully, and with purpose. Light Ayurvedic refreshments will be served.
