How To Start Your Ayurvedic Lifestyle

Sign in to review or comment
When I was a new Ayurvedic student I felt very intimidated by the advanced students at my school. They were more familiar with Ayurvedic foods and products than I was at the time. Starting my new journey in Ayurveda felt bewildering and intimidating.

Over time I learned some of the basic tools I needed to live an Ayurvedic lifestyle and compiled a list of Ayurvedic food essentials. I wish I had this list when I first started! The following items will help you start living Ayurvedically. Simply take this list to grocery store and you have a jump-start into Ayurveda.
