Ayurveda is...
Ayurveda and Yoga are sister disciplines, originating from India as part of its traditional natural medicine, known to be as old as the spoken word.
Ayurveda translates into 'Knowledge for right Living'.
With this said, Ayurveda is a clinically mastered technical science affirming that all living things have the propensity to expand, contract, reduce and revitalise with the correct mental approach, physical environment and surroundings that please the individual Spirit.

Traditional Ayurveda is as much a health practice as a discipline of mind, with a strong orientation to develop the higher mind and consciousness, in ways that suit the individual.
The philosophy of Ayurveda is based on understanding and balancing our essential Life force or Prana. Prana is the energetic quality all life comes from, Ayurveda concentrates on the movement and balance (or imbalance) of Prana.
Here at Yoga & Ayurveda, Cork, I examine factors which most readily disrupt our innate personal Balance:
Nutrition, lifestyle, stress levels, the physiology and physical structure, the Nature and Imbalance of the individual, plus
breathing patterns and thought processes that keep us caught in stress related cycles.
