Y O G A & AY U R V E D I C C O O K I N G
We will practice yoga and meditation daily to help to expand our consciousness and to open us
up to the subtleties of the Ayurvedic way of cooking. The wisdom of Ayurveda will be practically
experienced through Ayurvedic cooking workshops and presentations. You will receive a source
of inspiration for your daily meals coupled with a clear understanding of our deep functioning.
Yoga & Meditation
We will start each day with a mindfulness practice
aimed at connecting us with Nature, followed
by a dynamic yoga class. The morning practice
will focus on the joy of moving and bring a
sense of lightness, groundedness and enhanced
concentration to the start of your day. Through
breathing exercises and the activation of the core
muscles we will experience physically what we later
explore in our workshops. The afternoon offers a
gentler, restorative practice focused on balancing
our nervous system and mind. The classes can
be adapted to any level from beginners to more
seasoned practitioners.
Ayurvedic Seasonal Cooking
Mention of Ayurvedic Cooking conjures up
beautiful images replete with colours, aromas,
textures and spices. Behind this abundance
lies a strong scientific foundation and ancient
wisdom that provides the practical tools for us to
live with lightness, health and strength. Together
we will prepare certain meals, taking the time to
understand the process of vitality, fluidity and
youth and how to cook according to our inherent
nature. As we move from Winter to Spring,
particular attention will be paid to managing
seasonal changes.
AY U R V E D I C C O O K I N G W O R K S H O P S
The workshop themes include:
• Preparing Ayurvedic recipes for an invigorating diet.
• Learning how to both calm and energise our own body and mind.
• Working with our senses.
• Cooking with healing herbs and spices.
• Understanding key principles of health according to Ayurveda : the “metabolic fire”, how fluids circulate,
the production of energy, tips and tricks to aid digestion and the science of satisfaction.
• Discovering useful drinks.
• Learning to prepare healthy sweets for the whole family.
• Adapting the learned principles to your day-to-day cooking style.
