We practice yoga to control the mind, so it does not control us. We calm the 'vrittis' (thought waves) to bring us clarity, awareness, flexibility & strength in the body and mind.

Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that's been practiced for over 5000 years (origins in India). It developed through the observation of what all life is created from, the 5 ELEMENTS.
Ayurveda re-awakens the deep knowing that you are true nature.
Ayurveda teaches us to live a healthy, happy life, to fully enjoy it by creating awareness around our diet, lifestyle, work and sleep.
We will have plenty of time to dive into this wisdom so that we can return to our intended authentic selves through the magical combination of yoga, ayurveda, pranayama & food for the soul.
