The Beneficial Side Effects of Ayurveda Medicine with Melanie MacDonald

Ayurveda is a centuries-old system of healing that utilizes nutrition, herbal medicine, daily practices, seasonal living, yoga, meditation and body therapies, as well as light, sound and color therapies to bring a person into their highest healthy state of being. As we learn in this interview, one can sometimes experience some beneficial unintended side effects from this form of healing! Ultimately, when we work with this healing modality, the result is that we optimize our health so that we can live out our dharma - our Divine purpose. 

I'm so happy to sit down with Melanie MacDonald, a Medical Ayurveda Specialist, to learn more about this ancient science and how food as medicine and how well one digests food is at the forefront of this healing technique.
