A DAY of AYURVEDIC BEAUTY

THE BEAUTY OF DIGESTION & THE DIGESTION OF BEAUTY

What does beauty have to do with digestion? Well, this is interestingly the seat of true beauty in ayurveda–the health of your digestive system manifests on your skin. The health of your internal organs manifests in your facial lines. In addition, our skin is our largest organ–and a digestive organ. So to truly address beauty, you must start from within.

This is a day of indulgence in beauty, inside-out and outside-in.

SATURDAY FEBRUARY 11, 10-4p (a private residence in Long Beach)

• Ayurvedic education on digestion and beauty and the inter-relationship
• Organic vegetarian cooking class with ayurvedic principles (and of course we will feast!)
• Medicinal grade organic herbs will join us to reveal their wonderful effects on skin
• Make your own facial care formula (tailored to needs of your skin)
• Learn traditional ayurvedic beauty therapies
• Guided meditation (because relaxation is key to your glow–and we’ll explain that connection too)

Take home your individualized facial formula, recipe book for all the goodies we eat, and a new awareness of your own path to beauty.
