It will simplify the process and prepare you to receive your own personal mantra at a later date if you choose to. Practiced for thousands of years, meditation is a tool for rediscovering the body’s own inner intelligence. Primordial Sound Meditation uses individually selected sounds of nature called mantras, to disconnect us from the activity of life. These primordial sounds are based on the vibration the universe was creating at the moment of your birth. Practicing Primordial Sound Meditation on a daily basis will help you:
- Manage stress & reduce anxiety
- Improve your relationships
- Create inner peace
- Enhance your sleep patterns
- Lower your blood pressure
- Connect more deeply to spirit

NSRY Workshops this Week!
Join us at North Shore Restorative Yoga for two incredible workshops this week that will restore vitality and balance to your life!
THIS Thursday, April 25 from 7-9PM: Restorative Yoga with Acupuncture $60
Join Ayurveda Wellness Healing and North Shore Restorative Yoga and Greta Williams. Lic. Acupuncturist for an evening of BLISS.
The practices of acupuncture and restorative yoga are a fusion of the best healing gifts from two ancient Asian cultures. These modalities free up stagnant energies within the physical, emotional, and mental bodies. This process presents an opportunity to let go of the old and welcome the new. Studies have shown that healing is most effective when done in a nurturing group setting. In this workshop students will hold supported yogic postures for an extended period of time while receiving an acupuncture treatment.
The practices of acupuncture and yoga amplify each other’s benefits. This workshop is open to yogis of all levels and ages. No yoga experience is necessary.

Ayurvedic Massage ~
Let Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC help you eliminate toxins with The Secrets of Ayurvedic Massage.
An ayurvedic massage helps eliminate toxins through purification, strengthens the muscle tone, relaxes and rejuvenates the body. Also known as hard body massage, Ayurvedic massages are given using hands, elbows, and forearms.
Ayurvedic massage involving tapping, kneading, squeezing and traditional massage strokes is done by using essential oils to suit individual doshas. The style and intensity of massage depends on the individual’s need for balance and well being at the time.
An Ayurvedic therapist focuses on the “marma points”, which are similar to the pressure points in reflexology, acupuncture and acupressure.

Cilantro Mint Chutney ~
Cilantro Mint Chutney is Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC favorite spring time go to!
Spring is know as Kapha season through the lens of Ayurveda and we need to help ourselves by eating foods that will help lift the fog, dampness and break up mucus.
Cilantro calms our immune sensitivity to pollen. It is hypoallergenic and cools the liver.
Mint refreshes the mind, disperses dullness and lifts the fog. It breaks up mucus and fluid stagnation in the lungs, throat and sinuses. Mint and cilantro are both diuretics with the potential to drain excess water via the urinary tract. Raw onions have a cleansing effect on the liver and a laxative effect in the GI. Wild onions, a common weed, are a great addition to the spring time menu.
Cilantro Mint Chutney:
