Your New Year’s Exercise Resolution Solution!

It’s January 1.  You’ve eaten and drunk way too much.  Time to pay the piper and make a resolution regarding your fitness and health.  But you might not be in peak condition or may have injuries or just plain haven’t exercised in a while.  What’s a person to do?

If you are looking for an gateway exercise program, perhaps Nia is for you.

Most folks aren’t familiar with Nia.  It is a no-impact, adjustable, safe way to get fit.  Safe moves to great music.  Based in therapeutic movement, Nia draws from the likes of tai chi, yoga, taekwando, Alexander Technique, Modern and Jazz.  All movements can be adapted to your physical level.  You can even do it in a chair or you can really ramp it up and get a great, safe. fun workout.  Here is a link showing founder, Debbie Rosas with her latest routine, Wild!

Come try Nia as a possible resolution solution.  First class is on me, just mention that you saw my post on Good Morning Gloucester.

Classes are held at Rose Baker Senior Center on Mondays at 1pm

At MAGMA on Thursdays at 10:15 am

At Manchester Athletic Club on Mondays and Wednesdays at 8 am

Hope to see you soon!

The Year 2019 = Good Luck

The Year 2019 = Good Luck

Happy Healthy New Year.

Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC would like to share The YEAR 2019 in Numerology!

Numerology year 3 (2019) is a significant number in Numerology.  Numerology year 3 is considered as a symbol of the trinity and a number that brings good luck!  Year 3 in Numerology also inspires and encourages generosity, power and positivity.  Numerology year 3 gives people the strength they need to express their ideas freely and to fight against abuses of power.  Year 3 motivates all the life paths to rise to the challenges they face as well as to defeat the obstacles ahead of them.  2019 is essentially about grabbing hold of all the opportunities available to you and making the best of them.

Expect optimistic organizations and coalitions to be organized.  Creative solutions are likely to be proposed more than in other years.  Optimism can be expected to rise during 2019.  Solutions found by other individuals, organizations, and countries will tend to inspire others to replicate the solutions.

The color Gold ~

The color Gold ~

Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC knows the effects color can play into our wellbeing.

Through the lens of Ayurveda “The color gold is made up primarily of fire, water and earth but also has a little ether and air. Gold is warm, slightly moist, heavy and stabilizing.

In the mind, the color gold promotes stability and can be beneficial as part of a complete plan to manage anxiety and bi-polar tendencies. It accomplishes this without any sedative side effects. In fact, the colorgold is energizing in a manner that promotes endurance rather than a quick high. It uplifts the spirit and helps to transform consciousness, as it promotes greater awareness. In the body, the color gold supports all immune functions. It helps prevent disease and is useful in the management of autoimmune disease.

As you can see from the description, gold is neither very balancing nor very disturbing to any one dosha. It is safe to use by everyone. This makes gold a tridoshic color.” ~ Excerpt from “Healing Your Life, Lessons on the Path of Ayurveda,” by Dr. Marc Halpe

Incorporating gold into your life can be as easy as being in the warmth of the sun, eating honey, wearing gold jewelry, or gold clothing – how about some gold pillows on your furniture?

Winter Cleanse ~

Winter Cleanse ~

Winter Cleanse…Relax, Release, Reset

Join Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC, and our Yoga Partners North Shore Restorative Yoga, Giving Tree Yoga & Wellness Center, Cape Ann Power Yoga; Holistic Therapies 4 Life, The Moon + the Mat in a guided, at-home 7-day Winter Cleanse.
*January 27 – February 2, 2019

Kick-Off Conference Call (We ship anywhere)
Thursday, January 10 at 8pm EST
or
In-person Meeting
Wednesday, January 23 at 7:00 pm

Winter is a great time of year for a cleanse. This is not just a cleanse, but one that also helps to rejuvenate the body and mind.

Seasonal cleansing rids our bodies of all sorts of toxins, pollutants, harsh chemicals, pesticides, and any other Ama (toxic residue) that our physical body has accumulated over the holiday period. Cleanses will help to purify and tone the internal organs, cells, and tissues of the body, flushing out impurities that aren’t serving us.

* Have you been feeling more sluggish and tired lately
* Is your energy level just not what it used to be
* After you eat, all you want to do is take a nap
* Is your thinking as clear and sharp as you’d like
* Do you have a heavy coating on your tongue
* Do you have foul body, breath and/or stool odor
* Are you experiencing indigestion and excessive flatulence
* Do you have body aches
* Is your mind foggy

An Ayurvedic cleanse focuses on resetting the digestive fire, allowing it to rest and strengthen. The detoxifying nature also supports the body’s own natural mechanisms to remove built up toxins from the body. It’s a bit like cleaning out the pipes when the drain gets clogged, or hopefully even before the drain gets clogged.

Included in cleanse:
Kick-Off conference call or In-person meeting
6 meals
Cleanse Supplements
Oils
Cleansing Tea
Email and/or phone support
Yoga specials at our above partners

Pre-registration:
Early Bird sign up by 1/7/19
Investment: $108.00 (Includes shipping for out of town clients)
Late sign up after 1/7/19
$138.00

**If call date or cleanse dates do not fit your schedule contact us and we will accomodate your schedule.

To sign up or to answer any questions, please

Healing blessings in health…

Lavender Tea Bread ~

Lavender Tea Bread ~

Lavender is calming and great way to reduce stress this holiday season. Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC loves to make Lavender Tea Bread to share with our friends and family.

Lavender Tea Bread
(makes one 8-inch loaf)

3/4 – 1 cup coconut sugar
5 tbl butter
1 1/2 tsp organic lavender leaves, lightly crushed with a mortar & pestle
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1 tbl flax seeds
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp Himalayan Salt
1 cup yogurt, plain
2 tbl confectioners’ sugar (to dust top)
1/2 tsp grated lemon rind (garnish on top)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch loaf pan and line the bottom with wax paper (or parchment paper). All ingredients should be at room temperature prior to preparation.

In a 3-qt mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until creamy. Stir in the crushed lavender and vanilla. Add the eggs; beat well with an electric whisk (or hand blender). In a 2-qt mixing bowl, whisk together the pastry flour, almond flour, flax seeds, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Gently gold 1/3 of the flour mixture into the sugar cream mixture. Fold in half the yogurt. Repeat the alternating pattern of flour and yogurt until all the ingredients are blended together.

Transfer the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until done, about 45 min. Test for doneness after 40 min. The bread is done when a sudden toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean and the bread starts to separate from the edges of the pan. Cool in the pan for 20 min. on a wire rack; then turn out onto the rack to cool completely.

Enjoy and share with your friends!
