WHAT IS AYURVEDA?

Ayurveda is a totally holistic science that evolved on the Indian sub-continent beginning some 5000 years ago. According to Ayurveda, each individual is unique, a combination of physical, mental & emotional characteristics which are known as his/her Prakruti (constitution). Many factors both internal as well as external can affect this constitution. For example, one’s emotional state, diet, daily food choices, season and weather, physical trauma, job, and family relationships. Once we understand that these factors can cause an imbalance in our constitution, we have a choice to take appropriate action to nullify or minimize their effects to eliminate the cause. Within the body, there is constant interaction between order and disorder. Once we understand the nature and structure of disorder we can establish order. It is a relationship between the individual and their environment.
