When we think of dieting, restrictive eating, calorie counting, and short-term trends often come to mind. Ayurveda takes a different approach. It offers personalized dietary advice that nourishes and heals your body. Rather than a short-term restriction, Ayurveda views food as an integral part of a sustainable, holistic wellbeing strategy which helps to keep your body/mind in balance, preventing dis-ease.
 
Colette discusses why Ayurveda doesn't align with modern dieting:
  • One-size-fits-all diets ignore individual needs.
  • Modern diets focus on physical appearance, not health.
  • Modern dieting often promotes restriction and deprivation which can weaken digestion.
  • Lack of consideration for timing of meals with the Circadian rhythm.
  • Mindful eating is not addressed and how it affects digestion.
  • Modern diets can create emotional and mental stress.
  • Diets often don't consider seasonality and environment.
  • Ayurveda focuses on disease prevention, longevity and sustainability
