Ayurveda, the sister science to Yoga, is based on the principle that macrocosm affects microcosm and is reflected in the Pancha Mahabhutas, the Five Elements, which are the building blocks of the universe. These are Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether and they exist in every manifestation of living matter and form. The universal law “as within, so without” means that everything within us is also a reflection of what is outside of us. This practice will explore asana, pranayama, and mantra, exploring how we can increase or decrease these elements, for greater balance of body and mind.
