Adaptogens Woman Do you know her?
🌺 Welcome to the wonderful world of Ayurveda for women! If you're looking for a holistic and natural way to improve your well-being during menstruation or the menopause transition, you've come to the right place!
What is Ayurveda, you ask? Well, it's an ancient healing practice originating in India that aims to balance the body, mind, and spirit to achieve a full and healthy life. It's recognized as the world's first documented system of medicine. And when it comes to the specific needs of women, Ayurveda shines brightly.
Digging a little deeper...
For the curious: Ayurveda, which literally means "knowledge about life and longevity," comes from the Atharva Veda, one of the four Vedas or spiritual records of Hinduism.
Why is it so special to us?
(As much as Western herbal medicine.) When we had health problems, unlike traditional medicine, which didn't offer definitive answers, in Ayurveda we found the reasons—and best of all, solutions—to every symptom our body was showing us.
These solutions were accompanied by a depth that in no way overshadowed the simplicity of the tools it offers: inner medicine, that is, tapping into the healing power within us as the best therapy for beginning a path of self-care.
This is why Rita Uttara is special: she recognizes and celebrates the uniqueness of our being and offers us personalized tools to navigate the different stages of our lives, emphasizing all the ups and downs we experience from menstruation to menopause.
