Hello and Welcome!
Ayurveda is as old as the hills and and new as the smile on your face. It refers to perennial ideas and embrace life for eternity. Understanding Ayurvedic principles is not only about the richness of Indian culture but more to do with universal natural cycles. It speaks in tongues, all tongues, all cultures, all beliefs. It is the mother of all healing because it honours mother nature.
We have been studying and practising Ayurveda for almost 20 years. It is as vast as it is deep, as broad as it is comprehensive. It leaves no stone unturned and sheds light on the mystical and the mundane.
In this first video, Cathy will be talking about the links between Yoga and Ayurveda, how using Yoga and Ayurveda together changed her life. She will give some important tips on how to use Yoga and Ayurveda in your Yoga practice.
We would love to read your comments and answer any questions you may have. Perhaps you have a story to tell too! Please do email us or leave your comments under the video. We will respond to every one!
Ayurveda and Right Eating
Food advice is everywhere. There have never been as many opinions on how to eat and what to eat as there is now. In this inspiring talk, Tarik takes us through the key principles of diet from an Ayurvedic perspective and why he believes that nature generally knows best. He will share his top tips for maintaining health and wellbeing through diet and the pitfalls of modern living.
We hope you enjoyed the video.
Now get a piece of paper, write down your five favourite foods and assess them against the following criteria. Do you…

Yoga and Ayurveda: Stronger Together
In this next video, Dr Karelse will be talking about the importance of community and how we can achieve more as a community rather than always trying to go it alone.
Cathy discusses the concept of Yoga or Union as relationship How union creates something greater than the sum of its parts
The concept of ‘Feedback loops’ as a way of growing through relationship
The power of Kindness as Love in Action How our actions create the communities we experience
The impact of our community on our environment
How to create inclusive communities
At the end of the video, she asks: 1. In what ways are you building community? 2. What freedoms do you long for? Please email us your comments and questions or add comments underneath the video. We promise to respond to every single one.
Ayurveda for Change
In this final video, I will be talking about a project that both Dr Karelse and I are excited about, and that is our unique online training programme: Ayurveda in Action. The programme combines the very best techniques in online training including videos, handouts, powerpoint presentations and live webinars.
Our Ayurveda in Action Online is not just another course on Vata, Pitta and Kapha. We want this course to make a difference, to have an impact so you come away feeling the investment was worthwhile. We are keeping one eye on the bigger picture. You will get a broader social perspective on aspects of Ayurveda that you may not have considered before and will acquire tools that help you understand yourself better as well as the world around you.
One of the meanings of Ayurveda is Knowledge of Life. Ayurveda reminds us that nothing lives in isolation. We are all inter-connecte and need one other. We each have something special to offer and yearn for that to be recognised by others.
For too long now we have been caught up in an individualised model and it’s time to change that. It’s time to broaden our perspective and identify with the wider world we live in.
So, where does that change begin?
They say that Charity begins in the home, We say that change begins in the home too. It begins with how we treat ourselves and our loved ones but there is merit in seeing the wider world as an extension of our own home too. We can no longer live by the saying ‘out of sight, out of mind’. Our environment is crying for help and calling upon all of us to act.
Change happens when you take action, take a first step. Although we may feel overwhelmed by the current challenges, non-action is no longer an option.
The challenges we all face are part of a broader socio-political situation. We cannot magically change the economic circumstances of our lives but just because we cannot change everything doesn’t mean that we cannot change anything. We have more choices than we think.
Even a few small changes to how you manage your day, the food you put into your body and how you treat others can change the entire landscape of your life. We tend to overlook the obvious or miss the elephant in the room but our programme helps clarify what has to be changed and offers steps to change.
Yoga and Ayurveda together can help us to assess when it is right to throw down the gauntlet and challenge what is not right. It can also help us to know when to wait and see. Acting at the right time can make a big difference.
