In Ayurveda, digestion is everything. Known as agni, your digestive fire governs not only how you break down food but also how you process thoughts, emotions, and experiences. When agni is strong, health flourishes; when it’s weak or imbalanced, disease can take root. This class explores how to support healthy digestion using Ayurvedic principles and herbs. You’ll learn how to identify your digestive type (Tikshna, Manda, Vishama) and how to restore balance using food, spices, and traditional digestive herbs like Ginger, Ajwain, Triphala, and Cardamom. We'll explore the six tastes (rasa) and how understanding taste can help you build meals that are not only nourishing but deeply supportive to your individual body’s needs. Whether you're experiencing bloating, sluggish digestion, or irregular appetite, this class offers tools for strengthening your agni, tuning into your body's cues, and bringing more awareness to how and what you eat. We’ll be making medicine together in class-bring your 4oz jar along to take home your herbal goodies!
