Summer Solstice Yoga and Meditation Retreat in Port Townsend, June 22 - 25, 2023

YOUR ELEMENTAL NATURE
Ayurveda recognizes that each person is unique, yet within all the variation, certain patterns emerge. In Ayurveda, these patterns reveal 7 distinct body types. Understanding your unique body type is a game changer. It gives you a way to understand and decode the signs and symptoms your body and mind express, and a roadmap to resolving imbalances at their root. When you understand the meaning of your symptoms, you can take the right actions to regain balance.
In this 4 lesson audio course you'll learn about the different body types Ayurveda describes and discover yours. In each lesson, I'll guide you through some questions that will help you clarify the patterns of balance and imbalance in your organism. From there, I'll describe the ways you can regain balance by adopting simple daily rituals. Each week you'll be invited to create a new practice, based on that week's lesson and how it applies to you. By the end of four weeks you'll have a deeper understanding of your unique nature and how to care for it.
Whether traveling, in transition or healing from an illness or injury, knowing what to do best support your system, makes all the difference in your recovery. Take your self-care to the next level with an understanding of your unique body type and how to create the best conditions for dynamic health, satisfaction and wellbeing anytime.

“I loved the in depth info about the doshas. I knew I was a pitta/vata, but seeing all the layers of how to balance was extremely clear, and really makes a difference."

Pitta Lesson

Here's how it works
Each week for four weeks, you'll receive a downloadable audio lesson and illustrated pdf. After listening to the teaching, you'll be guided to answer to some questions that will support you in creating a simple daily ritual. That daily practice will benefit you in positive ways right away.
At the end of four weeks, you'll understand your unique Ayurvedic body type, what's out of balance and what actions to take to move towards balance again. You'll already have been practicing a supportive ritual each week, putting you on the road to living a more aligned daily routine for your unique nature going forward!
At the end of Week 4, join a live Zoom call and get your specific questions answered. (Recorded in case you have to miss, and you'll be able to send in your questions in advance if you know you're missing).
