Description
Harness the time-honoured wisdom of Ayurveda for optimal life-long health and well-being
We are all a little bit burnt out from the multiple demands of modern life. Instead of rushing through life and dealing with old age after it arrives, what if we had the wisdom to maintain optimal health throughout our lives?
Rasayana comprises the art of healthy ageing, and is a key principle of Ayurveda – an ancient Indian holistic health system, often known as 'the sister science of yoga'. Far more than a passing wellness trend, Rasayana focuses on our mind, body, emotions, environment and relationships to support us in staying healthier for longer.
Ayurvedic practitioner Geeta Vara guides us through this dynamic approach to longevity, helping us to mature with grace in a simple and holistic way. Through Ayurvedic philosophy and her seven pillars of pro-ageing, Vara teaches us how to incorporate principles into our life to nourish ourselves, including:
- Rasayana food for life: Ayurvedic herbs and recipes to support digestion and boost energy
- Sacred rhythms: How to live in harmony with nature
- Ayurvedic practices such as Abhyanga (daily oil massage) to nourish the skin
- Yoga and Pranayama (breathwork)to enhance flexibility, strength and mental clarity.
Rasayana is the perfect companion to finding true inner and outer well-being – for life.
