Ayurveda Basics Every Yoga Teacher Should Know

Ayurveda, yoga's sister science, gives teachers a framework for understanding each student as an individual. Knowing the three doshas — Vata, Pitta and Kapha — helps you tailor practice, pace and lifestyle guidance.

This introduction covers the doshas, Ayurvedic nutrition, seasonal routines (ritucharya), and simple ways to weave Ayurvedic wisdom into your classes for a truly holistic approach.

You don't need to be a vaidya to benefit — a few foundational principles go a long way.
