Ayurveda Integrative Nutrition Consultant Training: Starting January 20, 2024

Ayurveda means the Science of Life, or Longevity. It is a profound wisdom tradition dating back 5-8,000 years. Ayurvedic nutrition offers us a powerful and proven pathway to wholesomeness, optimal wellness, radiant health and vibrant living. It is time-tested, nature-based, and rooted in the fundamental principle that you are what you eat; that the distinction between health and disease is the quality of your digestion.

I invite you to join me for this transformative training as you expand your career by immersing yourself in the enlightening wisdom of Ayurveda.

Don't Take Your Digestive Health For Granted

Good digestion is the central engine of health, and yet 70% of people complain of digestive issues to their medical practitioner. With degraded soil and food, environmental pollutants and everyday stress, knowing how to optimize your energy and vibrant wellness is essential. After all, Ayurveda says, you are not what you eat. You are what you digest.

We Are What We Digest

"Taste is sensory, digestion is divine." ~ Ayurveda saying

Why is good digestion essential to good health? Why is it so important? Why is it so complicated? How do we boost digestive capacity? What are best practices for great health? Ayurveda believes that Agni, or your digestive fire, is the central engine of health.

Weekly Wednesdays

A key learning technique in Ayurveda is Pratyaksha - to learn by direct experience. Wednesday classes are a time to explore, reflect, deepen, practice, expand, and learn from others. There will be prompts for you to consider prior to class and to discuss in group. You will practice Vedic counseling skills and workshop case studies, to build your working knowledge and confidence. At the heart of Ayurveda is the understanding that we are all unique, and respond to everything uniquely. The best way we learn how to tailor Ayurveda to individual needs is to learn from one another, to experience first-hand how uniquely we each experience life and its many arrays.

Ayurveda From the Heart

Ayurveda has been a game changer for me, and I’ve seen it change the lives of hundreds. My mother is a living testament of the power of Ayurveda to nourish longevity. At 83 years old she is a force - living without pain, without medications, without struggle, she walks three miles a day, plays golf, enjoys great friendships, actively supports the arts, education and families, and continues to be a great, engaged mom, aunt and grandmother to over 40 of us “kids”! It means so much to me to be able to share the gift of Ayurveda with my loved ones, and with you!

The most reassuring lesson was that we are alive for self-realization and to participate in the creative evolution of consciousness; that the power of love is the greatest healer of all; I don't need to have all the answers, I just need to show up in every moment with pure love and compassion and be willing to help others, and to trust the Ayurveda.”
