Why Spring Is the Most Powerful Time to Start Getting Strong (And What Ayurveda Says About It)

The last few weeks I've taught a one day retreat and an Ayurvedic spring workshop. The theme I really tried to nail down for both groups. Gunas or qualities of the season. Noticing what is happening outside the body is happening within. If you understand the gunas it makes Ayurveda much easier to understand why we make the decisions to avoid salads in the winter, avoid overly heavy foods in the spring, or have hot tea in the summer months. Today I break down the gunas of the spring season.
