Endless Summer Chill Out : Ayurvedic Half Day Retreat

  • Oyster Bay Yoga 9 Audrey Avenue Oyster Bay, NY, 11771 (map)

Sunday, July 16th

12:00-4:00pm

with Nancy Rich

As the wheel of the years spins on the days get longer, the air gets warmer and we look forward to welcoming summer’s fresh energy. The summer heat is enjoyable when we are healthy and balanced, but with this season comes the potential for imbalances. Ayurveda likens the qualities of summer to Pitta Dosha, which is comprised of mostly of fire. During this time of year we may run the risk of Pitta Dosha running high, leading to symptoms of Pitta Dosha imbalances, especially if we aren’t living a lifestyle conducive to the change of seasons. Excess heat can lead to a less pleasurable summer with imbalances such as burning indigestion, red or irritated skin, inflammation, difficulty sleeping, excessive perfectionist tendencies, frustration, anger and impatience. Through the wisdom of Ayurveda we have the power to keep our minds and bodies balanced all year long allowing us to enjoy the sunshine!

Journey into the world of Ayurveda and heal through your senses with Nancy Rich, ERYT-500, graduate of the California College of Ayurveda as an Ayurvedic Health Counselor and Ayurvedic Yoga Therapist. Enjoy a blissful, Pitta pacifying half-day retreat filled with Ayurvedic education, including diet and herbs, aromatherapy and other sense therapy practices. Surrender into a slow, chilled out yoga asana practice (physical practice) with wisdom that you can take into ALL of your yoga classes, pranayama (breath practice), Yoga Nidra, nourishing food, a cooling elixir, and other delightfully treats to take home.

Ayurveda is a complete medical science that is derived from the same teachings as yoga and aimed at healing imbalances with the body & mind.

Please dress in cozy layers and bring along your yoga mat, pillow, journal.
