Healing Through Food – An Introduction to Ayurvedic Practices
In Ayurveda, food is considered one of the most powerful tools for maintaining health and restoring balance. Healing Through Food is an introduction to Ayurvedic practices that focus on the healing properties of foods, herbs, and spices, and their role in supporting the body’s natural intelligence.
In this workshop, we will explore how Ayurvedic herbs and spices are traditionally used to treat conditions, support digestion, immunity, energy, and overall balance. You will learn the basic principles behind Ayurvedic nutrition, including the importance of digestion (agni), balance of the doshas, and choosing foods according to individual needs and seasons.
The session offers a grounded, practical understanding of how simple dietary choices and mindful use of herbs and spices can help support common health concerns and promote long-term well-being. Rooted in ancient wisdom and designed for modern life, this workshop invites you to reconnect with food as both nourishment and gentle medicine. 🌿
