Ayurvedic Rejuvenation and Ageing Well (extended program)
with Dr Shaun Matthews, Deanne Tyrrell, Pulse Catering and Anahata Therapies ayurvedic treatment centre
One of the eight limbs of Ayurveda is solely devoted to the science of rejuvenation. On this day we will explore how Ayurveda understands this process and how this fits in with modern scientific theory. We will then look at practical ways of slowing down the ageing process, including specific foods, herbs, massage oils and yogic practices. The day will include instruction in yoga nidra, a simple meditation practice that promotes profound rest for the nervous system and rejuvenates the internal organs of the body.
