THE SLIMMERVEDA PROGRAM is a 9-12 week educational adventure into weight loss through deep learning, self-care and holistic nutrition.
Everyone starts with an Ayurvedic Assessment and enters the “Prep Phase”. The info you receive in the beginning gives you tools (questionnaires, info, recipes, and extras) to begin understanding your self, your environment and your personal cycles in terms of qualities and patterns according to Ayurveda.
The mind responds to “new” and we take advantage of this to help us get going. The prep phase will ready your body, mind and kitchen for the rest of the journey. The next phase involves a delving into alkalizing. This phase can last 6-8 weeks depending on the person and their overall goals. (Some clients stay in this phase longer if they have more than 20-30 lbs. to lose.) Research shows that when the body hits a peak in this phase, the meda or medha tissues release their stores from the body carrying years of built up toxins to the channels of elimination. We talk about how those toxins get created, distributed and stored, too.
As we near the end of that aspect of adventure, we transition into a healthful balanced way of eating and nurturing our bodies and minds for the long term, combining what we have learned thus far with the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and will include navigating our culture of convenience. The extended plan will vary from person to person, as Ayurveda does.
Each week we meet for a 2-4 hour session. There is always an educational component to include things such as Cooking Classes, Balancing Kapha, The Ins and Outs of Digestion, Ayurveda 102, etc… and there is always inner exploration and optional sharing. Sometimes we will bring in elements of deeper self-care and how to make yourself feel awesome!
And, I get to give you gifts along the way!
I hope this gives you a good idea of the program…
I encourage you to jump in!
