12 Hour Workshops
Ayurveda ImmersionIntroduction to Ayurveda
Ayurveda is India's holistic system of medicine and a sister science of yoga. Treating every person as a unique blend of qualities, Ayurveda emphasizes the prevention of disease through a diet and lifestyle appropriate to each individual’s unique physical and mental constitution. We will learn about Vata, Pitta, Kapha, the seven tissues, panchakarma, the process of digestion and disease, and practical guidelines to follow towards a healthy and long life. We will translate many Sanskrit shlokas directly from Ayurvedic texts. Also included, demonstrations of sinus cleansing, nasal lubrication and self-massage. Written materials provided.
Nicolai made the workshops interesting, fun and thought provoking. He is very knowledgable and has a warm, down to earth style. I think this was a great added requirement to the teacher training program. It has really peaked my interest in further study of the yoga sutras.
