LIFESTYLE
In Ayurveda, the foundation for good health is maintaining balance in the body and mind and living in tune with one’s unique mind-body constitution. Learn how your lifestyle choices impact your overall physical and mental health. I teach how to refine your lifestyle and make subtle shifts that reap big rewards in living a healthy life. Learn to work with your unique biorhythm and constitution to support your health and wellness endeavors.
A Sattvic Lifestyle.
A Sattvic lifestyle leaves you feeling balanced, energetic, and attuned to your primal nature and passions with a clear, content mind. We can create small habits that make a balance for our unique mind-body constitution or dosha. There are three dosha types; Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Healthy habits and patterns build into more extensive lifestyle changes that better our health and vitality.
