Wellness Within Reach: An Intro to Ayurveda

with Sue Whitmarsh

Learn about Ayurveda from Sue Whitmarsh.

Want to improve your energy levels, digestion, sleep, your overall health? Looking for other, more natural ways to heal? Often referred to as the ‘sister’ science of yoga, Ayurveda is the traditional healing system from India, which offers an alternative, holistic and self-led approach to healthier living that is simple, sensible and accessible to all, and which is rooted in an ancient, heart-led philosophy.

In this discovery session, you’ll be introduced to the fascinating theory and practice of Ayurveda, which encourages us to live in harmony with nature and its rhythms, and with our own nature or constitutional tendencies. After exploring the fundamental principles of this wise and wonderful way of living, we'll discuss food choices, lifestyle habits and other practices that will help you thrive through the winter months - boosting immunity, promoting radiance and building resilience to help you ride the waves of life's ups and downs. Your optimal health and well-being is within your reach - let me help you get there!

Sue Whitmarsh, AHC/AYT500, is an Ayurvedic Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic Health Counselor. She has been a practitioner of both for over 15 years, and is passionate about sharing these two beautiful complimentary healing arts, having experienced first hand the benefits to her own physical and mental health: “I believe that now is the time for access to alternative pathways to health. That prevention is better, where possible, than cure, and that we each have the keys to our own health and vitality within us. Ayurveda is the new health insurance. Invest in your health today and open up your mind, your body and your senses to its possibilities!”
