Simple Ayurvedic Recipes for Healing Your Body and Mind

Ayurveda uses food as medicine for both the body and the mind in these recipes for healing.

Simple Ayurvedic recipes for healing made from fresh, non-processed foods are the key to healing on all levels.

Rather than deconstructing food into calories, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, Ayurveda uses the six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent.

​​

These six tastes are required in every meal to find balanced nutrition.

 

Every individual will require a different proportion of the six tastes of Ayurveda depending on their constitution and current state of balance, the time of life, the time of year, and the time of day. 

Below is a collection of traditional recipes for healing and some of my personal, simple Ayurvedic recipes.

 

I hope you enjoy these simple Ayurvedic recipes for healing as much as I do.
