Kindling The Digestive Fire: An Ayurvedic Approach To Digestive Health

This eight-part course is an exploration of the Ayurvedic concept of the 'digestive fire', or 'agni' in Sanskrit. Ayurveda is the oldest written system of medicine that we have in the world today and its wisdom is just as relevant in our modern world as it was 5,000 years ago when it was first practiced. Ayurveda sees the digestive system as central to our overall health, which it compares to a fire - fuel goes in, is transformed into heat and energy, and a waste product is left behind. Throughout the course, we'll be exploring this analogy of the digestive system being just like a fire, looking at the different ways that the fire can burn and the symptoms that occur when it's not burning optimally, and you'll learn some simple things that you can do to restore your digestive fire to optimal health.
