Ayurveda for Beginners

Understand Ayurveda in 15 minutes, and start using it today

Free · 5 short videos · about 15 minutes in total

Ayurveda sounds complicated: Sanskrit words, doshas, rules about what to eat. It doesn’t have to be. In five short videos, Dr. Shivani explains what Ayurveda really is, how the three doshas show up in your everyday life, why your digestion matters so much, and a simple 10-second check you can do every morning. No jargon, no rules to memorise: just the basics, explained the way she has explained them to people across Europe for more than twenty years. And at the end, you’ll know which next step is right for you.
