Lesson 1

Habit Evolution

We are essentially made up of habits.. What we do, where we go, what & how we think, what we eat. The list goes on. Our habits are deeply ingrained behaviours that we perform automatically and with very little conscious thought, which is why habits can be so frustratingly hard to change. Fortunately there IS a way thanks to what we now know about the science of habit evolution. In this lesson we will learn the foundations of habit evolution & how to implement them into your life.

Early To Bed

It will come as no surprise to you that sleep is a vital aspect of our overall health & wellbeing and for many people they are simply going to bed too late, and have a poor night time routine, meaning the actions they are taking in the hours before bed are not in support of getting that all important deep sleep that our bodies need.

Lesson 4

Begin Your Day Well

We want to invite in spaciousness & ease. We also want to be training our digestion to eliminate first thing in the morning. If we are not eliminating daily, in the morning it means, physically, mentally & emotionally we are taking yesterdays ‘trash’ into today. If you aren’t eliminating well it will mean your inner state of your emotions & thoughts will also be clogged up. In todays lesson we will look at ways to train your digestion to poop first thing in the morning!

Lesson 5

Breath & Movement

According to Ayurveda stagnation is a fast track to disease, so when we roll out of bed, grab our coffee & sit on our phones or computers, it's the perfect recipe for stagnation, inflammation & eventually disease. When you start your day energised as a result of movement & breath (rather than caffeine) your decision making is clearer & your outlook more positive. In this lesson we will look at some simple ways to bring in a daily breath & movement practice, even if you are total novice!

What an Insightful course on practices of Ajurveda and the science behind them. I am quite new to this and found the advice invaluable. Not that I could make all the changes at once, but slowly. I had cup of warm water with lemon in the morning, lots of colourfu veggies and earlier dinner in place already. This happened after using continuous glucose monitor for a fortnight, it clearly showed that if I ate anything after 6 pm, my blood sugar would go too low during the night and ruin my sleep. Counter intuitive, but 12-15 hour fast during the night kept my blood sugar at a good level throughout. Will start the course again to implement more stuff slowly. Thank you!!
