Ayurveda Simplified

Ayubowan!

 Ayurveda has been coming up a lot these days, we have seen the younger generations warming up to it and ripping the
benefits.

 This is good and exciting,but of coarse some people do not understand what the fuss is all about, and what this Ayurveda thing is. Is it Herbs?Yoga?

 Let me help you get on the bus!

 I have decided to make this small post just to clarify and help you get a gist of what Ayurveda really is.

 So What is Ayurveda?

 It is not a thing, not herbs, nor oils... it is actually a science and a practice.

 Ayurveda is a very very veeeeery ancient holistic healing method of the mind ,body and spirit using everything Nature.(It Originated from India)

 The way it was taught to me is that, I will keep this so simple for you :


Human Body = Hardware

Mind & Spirit = Software

Ayurveda = How to treat your hardware in order to have a stable,healthy and prolonged Software.

So it includes many things like ; Food,Oils, Massages, Meditations and every good stuff that makes up the hardware.

 Your Hardware is made of all elements of the universe:
Air, water,earth and fire
  • Vatta - Air , space
  • Pitta- Fire , water
  • Kapha -water ,earth
Knowing your Dosha helps you learn more on how to take care of both your Software and your Hardware.

 Take a Quiz here to Know which element you are:

She was keen enough to listen and understand what vision and idea I had,plus she had fun with it in the process -which made her creativity shine even more! As you all know, Afrolanka is a hand made product (with so much love and care), this is precisely why I wanted our logo hand written too; so that it could reflect that special essence .  So Yes! Our logo was written  by hand! Since I relate much to Ayurveda and boho style, I wanted the look to be bohemian, hence the Bohemian fonts. Most of the Afrolanka Family relate a lot to the 'pink' color from our prior logo,i decided to keep a little bit of the pink as well in the new look, hence the pink dots.(I just love how she incorporated them!) Finally for the i...
