What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is based on the concept that everything is interrelated and interdependent; we are a microcosm within a macrocosm.
With so many health fads today, do you ever wonder what is the best diet and lifestyle for your unique mind and body type?
Ayurveda (Ayur = life, Veda = science or knowledge) is a personalized approach to health and a functional life science that shows us how to improve digestion and reverse the disease process.
According to Ayurveda, each human has their own unique constitution. Some people have more wind (Vata)--prone to nervous disorders and food sensitivities, others have more fire (Pitta) and heat--prone to inflammation and acidity, and other people have more heavy, damp, earth (Kapha) qualities--prone to weight gain, parasites, and candida.
Knowing your constitution will help you determine how to make dietary and lifestyle choices that will benefit your constitution and correct your state of imbalance.
Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of digestion. If we are not able to digest and assimilate food properly, it contributes to malnourishment and toxic build up in the body. This initiates the disease process.
Modern medicine is now confirming what has been stated in Ayurveda for over 5,000 years and is stressing the importance of the microbiome. We must cure leaky gut and eliminate food sensitivities to correct autoimmune diseases, balance blood sugar and reduce inflammation.
Ayurveda works by healing the gut and removing toxins from the body.
To prevent imbalance, many people sign up for one of my detoxification programs. Together, we can:
- Cure Leaky Gut & Eliminate Food Sensitivities
- Balance Blood Sugar
- Eliminate Parasites & Candida
- Cure Autoimmune Diseases & Inflammatory Skin Reactions
