Manage episode 304055499 series 2929006
The ancient practice of Ayurveda is a powerful system of medicine - but what exactly is it?
Kris Quinones of Rasa-yana has dedicated her life to learning this unique art and science of natural medicine from India after her life took a sharp turn when she sustained a sports injury, and the sports medicine pre-med lifestyle she was applying just simply wasn't healing her chronic pain. A yoga retreat that had a massage therapist using ancient Ayurvedic remedies was the game-changer that helped her heal her body for good, and she has been doing the same for others for over 20 years, now.
We talk about the principles and practice of Ayurveda, and how to balance the 4 pillars of life by applying the earth elements, herbs, foods, body work and mindful practices that are the basis of Ayurvedic practice, and what makes it so incredibly powerful.
