Ayurveda, India’s ancient science of life and longevity dates back approximately 5,000 years. This timeless wisdom recognizes that we are all manifestations of the divine. When our true nature is clouded by the illusions of the ego, “dis- ease” begins to manifest. According to Ayurveda, health is more than the absence of physical symptoms. It is a state of complete union with one’s highest potential. In this discussion we will be sharing how this ancient science is still very pertinent in today's world- where food is adultered, drugs are over used along with diseases and obesity being at their highest. You have the tools available to turn around your health, by taking 100% responsibility for who you are and the choices you make. Understanding your body type, the five elements and the mind/body connection according to Ayurveda will show you the way.
