A few words from Anne: ‘I have been very fortunate to have been handed down the tenants of Ayurvedic Cooking from my yoga master in India. The food I’ll prepare on the retreat will be will be locally sourced and freshly prepared. Menu choice is indicated by the particular day’s climate, moon cycle, time of day and season and the participants attending the retreat. Ayurveda is a 5000 year old scientific system based on the inter relationship of macrocosm and microcosm –if you can observe a force in nature or the environment you will also be able to observe this force in your body.
For optimum health we must pay attention to our environment, the food we eat and our individual constitution – of which there are three primary doshas. The meals we will share together will help to balance the digestive system, put you more in touch with the flow of nature, but most of all provide living food full of life’s vital energy – prana.
I very much look forward to cooking for you’.
