AYUR-YOGA

The sister sciences of Yoga & Ayurveda are inextricably linked and have complemented and enhanced each other since their inceptions. While practicing one without the other is beneficial, it similar to eating a nutritious diet without exercising – an incomplete approach to health. The synergistic union of Yoga & Ayurveda brings a holistic approach; this combination is as inseparable as the five elements interacting in nature. The ancient practices of Ayurveda support a foundation of strength, vitality and longevity of body and mind. Yoga, then takes us onward toward the path of Self-realization. Yoga provides the key to spiritual development which is the knowledge of our true nature. Together, Ayurveda and Yoga provide the insight for each person to create a way of life in harmony both with the world of nature and our higher Self.

Ayur-Yoga is personalized for each individual. Practicing yoga tailored specifically for your constitution brings you back to your natural balance. According to the principles of Ayurveda, like increases like. Therefore, you may be drawn to a yoga practice that will increase the gunas (qualities) that are already predominant in your nature which is contrary to what is naturally balancing. Ayur-Yoga provides the means to modify your yoga practice based on your individual Prakruti (innate constitution), Vikruti (current constitution) and the three doshas (Vata, Pitta and Kapha). Ayur-Yoga is an all encompassing practice which is equally applicable for beginners and seasoned practitioners of yoga.
