Sync with nature to understand your bodys clock and how it supports your sleep, eating, and exercise
Feed your system, nourishing not only your body but also your mind and soul
These practices dont require complicated equipment, expensive ingredients, or prior experience with Ayurveda. As Dr. Kumar-Singh writes, The essence of Ayurveda is that we are not separate from nature. When we live in harmony with nature, we have optimal and vibrant health. With this fundamental principle, she shows us how to build gradual and sustainable habits to support our physical, emotional, and spiritual health as we age.
