In this lecture we will dive into the Basic Principles of Ayurvedic Medicine, the ancient system of achieving and sustaining radiant health from India. Ayurveda is considered the sister science to Yoga and combining the two informs the practitioner on how to live and lead a healthy and balanced life. Beginning with Sankhya philosophy we will look into the manifestation of the universe into it's most subtle properties which will then inform the five elemental and tridoshic theory. We will then discuss the digestive system and the seven bodily tissues and see how the effects of our environment are constantly influencing our systems. This practical lecture will then inform students some simple tips for their diet and lifestyle as well as discuss yoga asana and it's effects on the body and mind. Please join us as we dive deep into Ayurveda with more lectures to come in this series!
