How may Āyurveda & Yoga help you?

Āyurveda & Yoga are a holistic healing & health modality, originating in India 2,000-5,000 years ago, that may be used to compliment a person for maintaining vitality & beauty for the relationship with their body, mind, and spirit. The word Āyurveda is translated from Sanskrit to English as Life Knowledge.  Āyu means Life, and Veda means knowledge.  It is the science of knowing how to live with and a part of the world on all levels mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.  Āyurveda uses Yoga as one of its healing modalities.  Yoga is a Sanskrit word that means to yoke or to joinUnionĀyurveda helps to bring an understanding for the individual to unite themselves with the Nature, the Universe, the God of their own understanding, and with the infinite love that resides within their heart.  Āyurveda is influenced by nature and uses the 5 elements: earth, water, fire, air, & space and within these elements three qualities co-exist which predominate in every living organism.  These three qualities are commonly called doṣa (or bio-elements) in our contemporary time.  The three bio-elements; Kapha, Pitta, Vāta, have unique characteristics that align with nature, seasons, and personalities.  The bio-elements combine the five elements as such:

Kapha – (combination of earth + water)

Pitta – (combination of fire + water)

Vāta – (combination of air + space)

Āyurveda uses an integral approach to healing by using anything and everything that nature or Mother Earth provides as a way to align ones’ unique energetic constitution with the transitory nature of the persons energetic imbalance, day, or seasons that may have been disrupted by the stressors in life. 

​Rooted in the Vedic scriptures, it is believed that Āyurveda comes from cosmic creation.  Therefore, we each have a primary bio-element or constitution we are inherently born with, but we each have a varying degree of all three.  The bio-elements create an imbalance in the body that may affect our energy, health, or mood.  The use of Āyurveda, along with a Yoga practice, in conjunction with our daily modern routine, may realign our environment by restoring harmony to achieve optimal health.  As an Āyurveda Life Style Consultant, Rebecca’s approach is to help one understand who they are as a unique individual living collectively in the world.
