Foundation of Ayurveda w/ Irmi Presutto

Lecture type workshop explaining the 5 Major Elements of Ayurveda, how the elements form the doshas and how the elements, doshas and all substances, including food, spices and beverages express gunas/qualities.

Ayurveda is the sister science of Yoga and both sciences have developed side by side in ancient India thousands of years ago.
People in Western societies deal with more and more health problems, especially digestive issues.
We can benefit from the wisdom of an uncorrupted, ancient mindset. The key tool for a healthier and calmer life is to know how to achieve proper digestion.


In this workshop you will learn:
– How to improve your digestion
– How to balance indigestion, constipation, bloating, flatulence, diarrhea.
– What’s your ayurvedic body type?
– Principles of Ayurveda – what are the five elements? What are the three doshas?
– Ayurvedic food staples for everyone to see, taste and smell.
Come and join us and learn easy and natural ways to improve your life!
Be healthier – be happier!
