What is Ayurveda?

Ayurveda is a 5,000 year-old Indian form of medicine and lifestyle. The root word stems from the science or study (veda) of life (ayur). Ayurveda provides guidelines on ideal daily and seasonal routines, diet, behavior, and the proper use of our senses.  Ayurveda reminds us that health is the balanced and dynamic integration between our environment, body, mind, and spirit.  Ayurveda offers a body of wisdom designed to help people stay vital while realizing their full human potential.
