Join us for a nourishing pranayama practice in a Salt Cave!

This class will notify your lungs, engage your imagination, and provide you with clarity and focus to reflect on the year’s accomplishments and prepare for the winter ahead. Learn tricks and techniques to shift your practice for the season to live joyously, align with nature, and stay attuned to your personal desires.

Prepare your body and your spirit as the seasons transition. The summer heat and yang energy are moving towards the inward, cool, yin energy of winter. The days are getting shorter and energetically we move inward to help organize, set limits, and protect boundaries.

WHAT: AYURVEDA – THE SCIENCE OF LIFE!

In Ayurveda our food plays a prominent role in promoting health and is therefore considered medicine. Food nourishes not only the body but the mind and awareness as well. In Ayurveda food, drinks, and spices are categorized according to their taste (sweet, salty, sour, bitter, pungent and astringent), the energetic effect they have on the doshas, as well as their post-digestive effect on the tissues. Many of the spices used in Ayurveda cooking such as turmeric, ginger, cumin, fenugreek, coriander and cardamom are also medicinal herbs used in Ayurvedic Herbology. Cooking daily with those spices can greatly enhance digestion, absorption and assimilation of food, improve one’s appetite and elimination, nourish the internal organs and prevent doshic imbalance.

WHO: THE CULINARY ARTISTRY OF SEEMA AND ANUSHREE 

SEEMA JOHARI AGARWAL AND ANUSHREE AGARWAL are the daughter and granddaughter respectively of Shri Harish Johari who was considered one of the most highly respected spiritual teachers of India in contemporary times. Anushree's canvas is definitely the kitchen; the spice cabinet her palette. Even before she could talk, Anushree would assist her elders in creating Ayurvedic feasts from scratch, using organic ingredients sourced from her family's farms. Cooking is in her genes. Anushree's knowledge of the healing properties of various ingredients in Ayurveda - as well as specific cooking techniques and preparations - must be experienced to be believed. Her passion for cooking is simply contagius!
