Description
'Geeta shows how Ayurvedic rejuvenation supports strength, resilience and wellbeing' – Jasmine Hemsley
What if vitality is not lost with age, but lost in the way we live?
We live in a culture of optimisation, yet many of us still feel burnt out and far from well. Rather than chasing youth or managing decline once it begins, there is a wiser path.
Rasayana – rooted in the holistic health system of Ayurveda – is a considered approach to ageing well: one that supports our body, mind and way of living to create lasting energy, clarity and strength. Far more than a quick fix or passing wellness trend, Rasayana offers simple, daily rituals to nourish your health – for now and for your future self.
Through her seven pillars of pro-ageing, Geeta Vara helps you mature with grace through Ayurvedic principles, including:
– Herbs, foods and recipes for digestion and sustained energy
– Sacred rhythms to live in harmony with nature
– Yoga and breathwork for strength, flexibility and clarity
– Meaning and purpose to support a more fulfilling way of life
– A nourishing sensory, social and emotional diet to enrich your everyday experience.
Whatever your age, Rasayana is the perfect companion for prioritising longevity and life-long health.

In a world that constantly tells us to do more, fix more, and chase more, Geeta reconnects us to the deeper roots of vitality, showing how Ayurvedic rejuvenation can support strength, resilience and wellbeing as we move through life.

An essential addition to Ayurveda for modern day living. Geeta's expertise in the subject is profound, and this book reflects that brilliantly whilst presenting Ayurveda in its most traditional form.

Geeta gives us access to ancient wisdom that brings tools not only for healthier ageing, but also for the power of ritual in our lives. Her book connects us to radiance and joy as much as it does to a longer life.

Rasayana is a timeless roadmap for those ready to stop surviving modern life and start thriving. Geeta Vara distils centuries of holistic science into an accessible, soul-nourishing guide that transforms how we think about ageing, not as decline, but as an art form. This is the book your body, mind and future-self have been waiting for.
Dimple Jangda, author of Heal Your Gut, Mind & Emotions

Geeta brings Ayurveda's time-tested wisdom for ageing well into the modern age, showing us how to nourish ourselves and connect to the bigger picture, so we can truly live our best life.

Geeta Vara, an eloquent Ayurvedic Practitioner has written a great book on rasayana. It is a practical guide for both students and practitioners, and patients will benefit from it too. She has brought this ancient Vedic wisdom together in a beautiful way to balance body, mind, consciousness and unfold the cellular intelligence in the daily life of the individual. I recommend this book to those seeking a longer life.
