Food as Medicine
Ayurveda Workshop
By Ariadna Landman
Ayurvedic medicine practitioner
“Food eaten with awareness of one's needs, at the right time, season and place promotes energy, radiant complexion, abundant health, strength and a long life” - Caraka Samhita.
Everyone eats, but not everyone eats healthily or knows what eating healthy really means. Food is the first pillar of health, Ayurveda explains, but it's important to understand how to employ it so it's the source of well-being and not the source of illness.
In this workshop we will explore the food realm, as explained in the classical texts of Ayurveda, and how to employ food to create health and heal from disease. You will learn key dietary principles, therapeutic uses of spices, and ideal foods for each body type.
