At the heart of Ayurveda is the food we eat. What we put into our body and the way in which this is done creates our body tissues and cells, produces our energy, can change our mood and can either create health or disease.
oin Virginia and Adrian for this one day workshop focusing on Ayurveda and food.
We will explore recipes that are not seen as traditionally Ayurvedic and learn how we can adapt so that we still retain Ayurvedic principles. This day will focus on Mediterranean foods and will use locally sourced (foraged, self grown and from local organic suppliers), ingredients to honour the spring season.
Focus on your digestive fire (Agni) and prevent build up of toxins (ama).
Learn about this approach to food and the theory behind this ancient art.
Find out how to balance and adapt different foods using Ayurvedic principles.
