SUMMARY:ONLINE Nourish Your Body with Taste
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, April 10 @ 1:00–3:00pm  \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nONLINE: This workshop will take place via Zoom. Registrants will receive a link at least an hour before class. \n\n\nAn oft-cited Ayurvedic proverb states\, “If diet is wrong\, medicine is of no use. If diet is right\, medicine is of no need.”\nAyurveda considers what we eat and how we eat to be fundamental in the maintenance of health. When considering the beneficial effects of food\, we consider the taste\, the cooling or heating effect on the body\, and the impact the food has on the body after it is digested. By these qualities\, we can determine the best tastes and foods for the season or for the person’s constitution. It is best when the foods taken during the course of the day contain all six tastes\, though the quantities of each taste are specific to the needs of the individual. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTeacher\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMahavidya (Mary Thompson) has been teaching Ayurvedic principles and practice to others for over 20 years; she is an expert and a perpetual student of Ayurveda. For years\, she supported practitioners\, largely at the California College of Ayurveda. She now mentors and consults with practitioners around the world. She is on the faculty of the 800-hour Sivananda Yoga Health Educator Training. She is an animated and humorous presenter. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone *I will attend *in persononlineDonation *Self-Abhyanga Workshop - $25.00Total Amount *$0.00Comment or MessageStripe Credit Card *Submit

SUMMARY:ONLINE Why Am I So Tired?
DESCRIPTION:Register\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWITH SARAH OTTO-COMBS \n\n\n\nONLINE: This workshop will take place via Zoom. Registrants will be sent a link at least an hour before the workshop. \n\n\n \nSeven Signs that your Body is Toxic According to Āyurveda\nLoss of appetite\, body pain\, anxiety\, loss of libido\, and low or no energy… \nWhile you might think that mental disorders or physical injuries might cause these symptoms\, there could be something lurking under the surface that you have never considered before: A clogged up body filled with icky\, gooey toxins which we call āma. \nĀma is the “sludge” or “goop” that accumulates in the body when food is not digested completely or when we fail to routinely cleanse our bodies. It describes the Āyurvedic word for “toxic buildup” that wreaks havoc on our bodies and minds when left unchecked\, causing conditions from fatigue to more severe symptoms like rheumatoid arthritis. \nIn this workshop\, Āyurvedic Practitioner Sarah Otto-Combs will teach participants: \n• 7 major signs that point to an accumulation of āma \n• Household remedies to bring balance \n• Dietary adjustments to reduce toxic buildup \n• Herbs that gently cleanse your body \n• Simple foods to support your digestive fire \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nInstructor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nA self-proclaimed “total plant nerd”\, Sarah Otto-Combs is a NAMA-certified Āyurvedic Practitioner\, e-RYT 200 Āyuryoga instructor\, and Founder of Siddha Labs. Sarah was inspired to help others on their journey to great health after her own tremendous transformation through Āyurveda. Years of suffering from health conditions that left her barely able to walk for weeks at a time led to relentless investigation into all things medicine and eventually to Āyurveda\, the oldest medical science in the world. She completed her studies at the Āyurvedic Institute under the guidance of Dr. Vasant Lad\, known throughout the West for his deeply spiritual insights into this profound science gained through 50+ years of teaching. \n\n\n\nSarah is known for seamlessly weaving the art of Ayurveda into a language and format Westerners can understand and is passionate about sharing its wisdom as tool for self-empowerment and growth.

SUMMARY:ONLINE Pranayama Course (5 days)
DESCRIPTION: \n5 daily sessions\, 5:30–7:00pmMonday\, May 4 to Saturday\, May 9\, skipping Thursday\nThis course is inspired by our 30-Day Pranayama Challenge on Instagram Live. Prana is the universal principle of energy or force. “Whatever moves or works or has life\, is but an expression or manifestation of prana.” Breath is the external manifestation of prana. With the regular practice of pranayama—or controlling prana—you can store this energy in your brain and nerve plexi. You need an abundance of prana to be healthy and strong. Hatha Yoga has developed this to a science. In this course\, we will introduce and practice kapalabhati and anuloma viloma (alternate nostril breathing)\, in addition to sun salutations and relaxation. Join our Instagram Live Pranayama Challenge at 8:00am for support continuing this essential practice for mental stability and a strong immune system! \n \nCurriculum\n\nLearn a safe practice you can do daily\, building up the number of rounds at your own pace.\nBalance and calm the mind.\nTone your body\, internal organs and digestion.\nWe will look at classic sitting positions\, kriyas and anatomy of breathing.\nBuild your awareness of energy\, while consciously building\, storing\, purifying and chanelling prana.\n\nSwami Sivananda says\, “A Pranayama practitioner will have a light body free from disease\, very fair complexion\, a sweet melodious voice\, and pleasant smell from his body. He will have good appetite\, cheerfulness\, a handsome figure\, good strength\,  courage\, enthusiasm\, a high standard of health\, vigor and vitality\, and good concentration of mind.” The practice is easy and the benefits immediate. Cultivate the discipline\, with the encouragement of the group practice. \n___________________________________________________________________________________ \nRegister\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone *AddressAddress Line 1Address Line 2CityState / Province / RegionPostal Code--- Select country ---AfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBolivia (Plurinational State of)Bonaire\, Saint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCabo VerdeCambodiaCameroonCanadaCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos (Keeling) IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo (Democratic Republic of the)Cook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzech RepublicCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatini (Kingdom of)EthiopiaFalkland Islands (Malvinas)Faroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIran (Islamic Republic of)IraqIreland (Republic of)Isle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea (Democratic People's Republic of)Korea (Republic of)KosovoKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesia (Federated States of)Moldova (Republic of)MonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth Macedonia (Republic of)Northern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine (State of)PanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena\, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint Martin (French part)Saint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint Maarten (Dutch part)SlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyrian Arab RepublicTaiwan\, Republic of ChinaTajikistanTanzania (United Republic of)ThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern IrelandUnited States Minor Outlying IslandsUnited States of AmericaUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVatican City StateVenezuela (Bolivarian Republic of)VietnamVirgin Islands (British)Virgin Islands (U.S.)Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland IslandsCountryPranayama 1 Course Registration *5-session course - $150.00How will you attend? *in persononlineStripe Credit Card *EmailSubmit
