ABOUT AYURVEDA
Ayurveda means “the science of life”. It is an ancient wellness system that focuses on the complete person which includes the body, mind, and spirit. Ayurveda looks at wellness not as “the absence of disease”, but instead, when all bodily tissues, organs, systems, and functions are acting together in a way which enables optimal health despite the presence of potential illness causing influences. Ayurveda teaches us that by balancing the various mind-body functions, the natural intelligence of the body will automatically bring itself to wellness.
Ayurveda recognizes that each person has a unique mind-body constitution. Ayurveda identifies an individual’s mind-body constitution, determines where imbalances may exist, and provides education, guidance, and options for helping the individual nourish, stimulate, and balance vital energy to bring about their own improvements in health and wellness. Ayurvedic practices focus on clearing disturbances and balancing metabolic and energetic patterns that support constitutional resilience. It is the individual’s correct implementation of the right Ayurvedic practices that brings about balance and wellness.
~~~
Ayurveda is a natural health and wellness system that originated in India more than 5,000 years ago. The word Ayurveda is derived from the Sanskrit words Ayur, meaning “life”, and Veda, meaning “knowledge” - an ancient healing science centered around harmony and balance.
Universal interconnectedness lies at the heart of Ayurveda, coming to an understanding of our ideal state of balance (prakriti) and the constitutions of which we are composed (doshas) we can begin to discover, and then maintain our own personal balance.
In Ayurveda we believe that illnesses can arise from a state of imbalance. This imbalance can present in our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual selves and is called vikruti. This can arise as a result of a change in location, our eating habits, the emotional experiences we carry, the change in seasons, or even the various stages of our life. Ayurveda encourages certain lifestyle interventions, therapies, and practices to regain balance between your body, mind, spirit, and environment.
Ayurveda is a true holistic approach to health and wellness, incorporating diet, herbal remedies, massage therapy, yoga, meditation, breath work, and more.
We are honored to bring Ayurveda’s timeless wisdom into a modern and accessible framework. Our approach is practical and simple.
We know that plants are medicine, but their medicinal properties amount to much more than the single ingredients extracted by pharmaceutical companies. Ayurveda knows that what we eat — or put on our body — is also plant medicine, and makes a meaningful difference to our health and well-being.
We know that love generates healing. We know that healing happens when we come from the heart, so everything we do comes from the heart. We mother, we nurture, we listen deeply, and we deeply care. We reconnect clients to the nourishing elements of the natural world, we melt away layers of tension, we ground.
Ayurveda understands that our feelings, relationships, even our soul’s longings, all affect our health. We know that when we forge a connection to our whole being, we step through a doorway to a more open consciousness, and to greater health and happiness.
Our community inspires transformation and re-creation. Our community helps us return to our best health and well-being, and reminds us that, one step at a time, we’re all just walking each other home.

Using the best and simplest aspects of Ayurvedic medicine through a combination of simple diet changes, herbal remedies, warm oil, and other transformative daily therapies, Ayurveda lets the body rest, open, and heal. Accumulated toxins naturally fall away, health improves, longevity and wellness are strengthened,
and disease is averted.
Ayurveda teaches us that a healthy digestive system is the foundation of our health and wellbeing. When our digestive system is working correctly, nutrient absorption is optimized and digestive issues such as gas, bloating, loose stools, constipation, and indigestion are non-existent.
Poor sleep is often associated with Doshic imbalance. Hormonal fluctuations, life stages, and stress have a direct effect on our quality of sleep. Ayurveda seeks to harmonize these imbalances and restore restful vitality.
All life is supported by energy, represented by the three Dosha types. Energy balancing is achieved through daily practices and others specific to your Dosha.
Ayurveda heals the immune system from the inside out. By addressing the root cause of the imbalances that cause our symptoms, we strengthen our defenses and protect our life force.
By nourishing the body and supporting its own healing mechanisms, the treatments we provide will create balanced energy flow, deep relaxation, and purification in both mind and body.
Abhyanga is a full body massage performed with warm herbal oil. This traditional treatment uses choreographed strokes, either 2 or 4 handed, to bring nourishment to the tissues, deep relaxation to the muscles and calmness to the mind. Each body type is different, so the oil combinations are blended with specific herbs or essential oils to meet your unique needs. Abhyanga improves lymphatic flow and movement, increases the softness of the skin, reduces the effects of aging, and replenishes the tissues of the body while promoting healthy circulation. It helps with grounding both the body and mind. This treatment is good for reducing stress and for general detoxification. Abhyanga is also helps with muscle tension, chronic fatigue, multiple sclerosis, depression, fibromyalgia, and Parkinson's disease. *Other treatments may be added on to an Abhyanga such as Shirodhara, Marma Point Therapy, or the Bastis
Shirodhara is a simple, yet profound treatment that works specifically on balancing and stabilizing the activity of the mind. Warm, herbal oil is poured in a consistent stream over the forehead, resting over the third eye. Shirodhara helps to normalize sleep cycles, reduces insomnia, nervous system disorders, and balances mental and emotional states. This treatment profoundly relaxes the mind and nervous system and allows a person to go deep and journey within. *Can be added to an Abhyanga or Marma Point Therapy

I just finished a two week Ayurveda cleanse with Heidi Grace.
My experience was far different than what I imagined.
First of all the process was far easier than I thought possible.
How could I do this living with my daughter’s family,
watching a two & almost 5 year old during a pandemic?
Well, I learned to value my time, turn off technology for a day,
(yes I did that)
and force myself to rest.
I have a much different relationship with food preparation
and the results were so invigorating!
I looked forward to my epsom salt baths, the Kitchari meals, yoga & relaxation.
I even learned how wonderful it is to be kind to myself!
The personal sessions with Grace gave me insight and a motivational embrace!
Loved it.
