Ayurveda is India’s traditional, natural system of medicine that has been practised with Yoga for more than 5,000 years. Learning about method to bring Ayurveda into your daily life through what you ingest via your senses. Yoga combined with Ayurveda Works for Over 40s.
Ayurveda views each and every person as a “one and only. ” Likewise each person has a distinctive mind-body constitution and a matchless set of life circumstances. For best results these must be considered in determining either natural healing approaches or recommendations for daily living. This view is in alignment with the modern day science, which views each individual as exclusive in the universe with a unique DNA.
As each person has a unique constitution, our health prescription must be specific to us. In order to be healthy, you need to eat certain foods that are beneficial for your body type & stay away from others. Living in health & the balance is the key to a long life free from disease.
Our health is up to us
Perhaps the most important lesson Yoga and Ayurveda has to teach us is that our health is up to us. Every day of our lives, every hour of every day, we can, & do choose either health or illness. When we choose wisely, nature rewards us with balance, health & happiness. There are many benefits and good reasons why Yoga and Ayurveda need to be practiced together. Just one is only half the benefit. Read here more.
AYURVEDA holds that specific disease conditions are symptoms of an underlying imbalance. It does not neglect the relief of these symptoms, but its main focus is on the big picture: to restore balance and to help you create such a healthy lifestyle that the imbalance won’t occur again. Your constitution determines very much about you – your body, your personality, even how you relate to other people. Understanding this lets you know what you need in order to maintain balance.
