Ayurveda & Women's Wellness
Ancient Wisdom for Modern Women
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda has existed for thousands of years; it is the ultimate holistic wellness guide, considering all aspects of the body, mind, and spirit of the individual.
Basic Principles of Ayurveda
The human body, is made from the five material elements: vayu (air), jalam (water), prithivi (earth), agni (fire), and akash (ether). Each person is born with a specific combination of dominant elements, this is known as their dosha (elemental constitution). The three main doshas are vata, pitta, and kapha. There are seven sub-types of the three main doshas. Most people have one or sometimes two dominant doshas; very rarely, are all three equally dominant. Dis-ease is caused by imbalances in these elements/energies.
Mission & Goal
Create a healthier society by supporting the physical and emotional wellness of young mothers through Ayurvedic care during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.
