Saturday, July 26th, 2025 at 5:30PM at Ambient Yoga

Next to breathing, eating is one of our most vital bodily functions. In Ayurveda, we cultivate health by eating a variety of fresh, delicious foods and tailoring our diet to balance our dosha (mind-body) type.

In this workshop, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the vital role digestion plays in our health and well-being, including the concepts of Agni (digestive fire), Ama (toxins), and Ojas (vitality). Learn how to use herbs and spices to kindle your digestive fire and explore the concept of the microbiome.

We'll learn about the six tastes and the seven colors of fresh foods, and how to consciously incorporate them for balance and to prevent chronic inflammation.

Beyond what you eat, we'll explore the benefits and practice of eating with awareness, transforming your meals into truly nourishing rituals. This session will help deepen your understanding of the foundational Ayurvedic principles and practices for optimal eating.
