Ayurveda 101; Foundations for Real Life (MN)

This course will give you the tools to understand your own body. You will be given a "householders" view of this ancient science and ways to improve your wellbeing.

Ayurveda is the sister science to yoga, literally meaning “the science of life” (Ayur = life, Veda = science or knowledge).

Yoga and Ayurveda work together to help you achieve health, happiness, and radiance. Wellbeing is achieved by harmonizing the body, mind, and spirit composition, with the changing cycles and rhythms of nature.

In this course, you will explore specific practices that best support your individual body constitution.
