“Ayurveda in the simplest terms is the practice of living like you love yourself.”
Ayurveda ('the Science of Life') is an ancient holistic system for living that's as relevant and powerful today as it's EVER been. It provides simple, practical tools for creating balance and self-healing that can be understood and practiced by anyone.
