NOURISH: Letting Go of the Rules and Feeding Yourself

Sunday, December 4th

9:30-11:30AM

Online Event

Everything we take in through all of our senses is an opportunity to nourish ourselves. It is also true that everything we take in is digested and turned into us. So it makes sense that what we think and feel about what we are taking in plays as much a role in how well we nourish ourselves as the "food" itself. Applying a morality towards ourselves and our food choices as good or bad inhibits digestion and can lead to poor absorption and the accumulation of toxic waste in our tissues—not to mention ongoing mental and emotional stress which takes its own toll on our health.

Ayurveda is a system of living that orients us towards harmony and balance. It can also be viewed as having lots of diet “rules”. Join me for an exploration of how the foundational principles of Ayurveda can be a path to freedom rather than restriction. Discussion will include ways to avoid using even Ayurveda as a tool for disordered eating.

My hope is that this will be a launching event to create a community of support around liberating ourselves from the destructive patterns of dieting and perfectionism and trusting our own innate knowledge of what we need to be nourished.
