AYURVEDA
Ayurveda ‘The Science of Life’ is a holistic health system dating back thousands of years, with two main goals; ‘to maintain the health of the healthy’ and ‘to heal the sick’. It is based on living in harmony with the cycles of nature and gives the wisdom required for people to fully understand and care for their individual true selves. Ayurveda heals, prevents disease, and brings vitality and good health to us through dosha-specific diets, lifestyle changes, herbal medications, Ayurvedic therapies, massage, yoga and more.

Ayurvedic Lifestyle, Nutrition & Spiritual Coaching
Ayurvedic coaching is a process by which we dive deep into your current and past health concerns, diet, lifestyle, belief systems, physical characteristics, faith, and family history to determine root cause of symptoms and imbalance or disease.
We then commence the journey to creating balance naturally with Ayurvedic remedies and Yogic practices to create long term and sustained change designed to facilitate transformational outcomes in healing, vitality and spiritual growth.
There are a couple of options in how we can work together, depending on your situation:
OPTION 1: Ayurvedic Assessment + Basic Support: if you have already started your Ayurvedic journey or are motivated in self healing.
OPTION 2: Ayurvedic Assessment + Integration Support: If you are new to Ayurveda or have complex physical, mental or emotional imbalance, which deserves time and sacred space to go deep in sharing and resolving the causes of imbalance.
