Introduction to Ayurveda

15


15 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Feb 01, 2017

During this introductory conversation, we will discuss Ayurveda, the ancient healing tradition from India. Ayurveda offers natural alternatives to conventional medicines and treatments. You will receive invaluable insight to healing remedies with regard to the three mind-body types, or doshas; Vata, Pitta and Kapha. I will refer to The Complete Book of Ayurvedic Home Remedies, by VASANT LAD, B.A.M.S., M.A.Sc. throughout our conversation.

During the session you are free to ask questions about any specific ailment or symptoms you are experiencing. I will use Dr. Lad's book, along with my intuition and life experience, to help demystify your personal situation. There are simple adjustments you can make in your everyday life which will reduce stress and lead to harmonious transformation.

*IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: I am not a medical professional or a doctor. I am simply spreading awareness about this amazing ancient science based on personal experience and self-taught knowledge.

**You are advised to speak with your health care professional prior to trying any of the remedies you learn about during the session.

Training & Qualifications


Presently, I am self-taught. I practice many of the Ayurvedic lifestyle recommendations everyday. I see first hand the extreme benefits this ancient wisdom has given my body, mind and spirit. My stress level has decreased immensely and as a result I am happier. My mind does not real uncontrollably, instead I am filled with a sense of peace and serenity. I am able to accomplish many complex tasks without getting overwhelmed or emotionally drained. I am able to go through my day without taking small issue personally and feel extremely empowered.

I want nothing more than to share the knowledge from my experience and to spread awareness for this beautiful healing art. I am by no means an expert. I am simply overflowing with gratitude for the gift of health and abundance that is flooding my life since adopting small changes to my daily routine. I have made many mistakes and done many a disservice to my body in the past, but Ayurveda is teaching me how to live in harmony with the laws of nature.

I am also preparing to become a Certified Ayurvedic practitioner.

Availability & Preferences

About Sarah Smiles

I am inspired by nature's awesome beauty, the simple life of rocks and shells, the way mushroom spores travel, the mycelium beneath our feet, the essence of the soul. I believe human beings are creati...ve, every last one of us manifests his or her own reality. We are all creating our own stories, writing our own songs. Life is not perfect and it was never meant to be. I write poetry, lyrics and play the guitar. I love to sing with jam bands and cherish the feeling of that sweet spot in a jam when everyone starts to float. I believe music vibration transcends time and space. I am so grateful to be blessed with the gift of so many talented and spiritual musicians in my life. There are not sufficient words available in written language to truly capture the feeling when all the musical pieces fit together. You begin to rise out of your skin and feel the sound waves under your feet instead of the floor, freed in that moment from the trials of earthly living and the stubborn bodies we were born with. I am also a gardener, interested in spreading information about sustainable gardening and homesteading. I believe in composting and sustainable, simple living. My new learning obsession is fermented foods. I am extremely passionate about wellness, yogic lifestyle, Ayurveda, eating whole foods, honey bees, listening to your body and reducing stress! Tend the flower that feeds you. Rake the leaves that please you. Run with the wind that believes in you. Let the trees bring you to your knees and sing the song of your soul. Namaste show more
