Is it winter where you live right now? While the cycle of the seasons is more apparent in certain parts of the world, winter brings its own unique challenges: shorter days, colder temperatures, and a natural tendency for your body & mind to slow down.

In Ayurveda, winter is a season dominated by Vata (cold, dry, and light) and Kapha (heavy, slow, and damp). As yoga teachers, now is the time for you to create classes that honor this seasonal energy while addressing common winter imbalances.

In Ayurveda, the doshas are three biological energies—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—that govern all physical, mental, and emotional processes in the body and mind. Winter is a season dominated by Vata (cold, dry, and light) and Kapha (heavy, slow, and damp) so we’ll focus on those 2 in this episode.

Oh, and you may want to get your journal for this one because I’ve got lots of ideas for you!
