Alicia’s Point of View

How has Ayurveda changed your life?

I was first introduced to Ayurveda during a Yoga Teacher Training at the Integral Yoga Institute in New York City. I was drawn to Ayurveda to heal my physical body, but it proved to be a gateway into more happiness, fulfillment, and freedom than I could have ever imagined.

When are you most likely to go out of balance and how do you bring yourself back in balance using Ayurveda?

Dry, cold, windy weather, and a hectic schedule throw me out of balance. Meditation, stillness, oil massage with Vata Massage Oil or Pitta Massage Oil, warm tea, and a delicious home cooked meal with plenty of spices help me ground, nourish, and recenter.
