What is Ayurveda?

Intro to Ayurveda 3 part workshop
Ayur means "life" & Veda "knowledge" Ayurveda emerged from the theoretical texts of India called the Vedas, or Books of Wisdom. Ayurveda teaches us how to live in harmony with nature and how to recognize the power of self-healing from within. Health is looked at as not just physical health but emotional, social and universal.
The Five Basics Elements in Nature also exist in our own bodies, Earth, Water, Fire, Air & Ether (Space) and the Doshas derive from these Five Elements. The Doshas are biological energies found throughout the human body and mind. "They govern all physical & mental processes and provide every living being with an individual blueprint for heath & fulfillment." ~Eat, Taste, Heal
