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.
Join Virginia and Adrian for this one day workshop focusing on Ayurveda and food.
We will explore recipes that are traditionally Ayurvedic and learn how these promote and maintain our gut health. This day 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.
This day will focus specifically on seasonal spring foods.
Arriving ready to begin the day at 930am we will have an introductory chat with herbal tea before an interactive cookery demonstration, as we prepare a delicious and healthy lunch.
All food offered will be locally sourced, organic and seasonal.
After the day you will receive all recipes as well as food to take away.
