Celebrating life! photo by Mary MacIntyre

In the previous blog I mentioned a lecture about Ayurveda. I included several resources. As we are fortunate to have a school in Albquerque, NM, I decided to see what more I could learn about 2 books mentioned in the lecture. I was rather curious in particular about the cookbook. SO I copied from their website their description.

The video included below offers a more in depth discussion about food. Please listen and watch.

Finally if you visit the link above, you will note how a few people can create a press about their passion. If you are interested in Ayurveda, this can be an exciting resource for you. If you are a wanna be publisher, then you can remember that these projects create vitality in our field for self-sufficiency. Dream big. Create your action plans. Namaste. Mary MacIntyre
