A Fresh Experience of Asana: Exploring the Ayurvedic Dhatus through Movement
The seven dhatus or tissues of the body uniquely form the basis for understanding the ayurvedic perspective on physiologic health and immunity: rasa - plasma; rakta – blood; mamsa – muscle; meda – adipose tissue; asthi – bone; majja – nerve and connective tissue; and shukra/atharva – reproductive tissue. These each systematically and progressively nourish one another. In this unique offering, Robin shares Vasant Lad’s teaching on the dhatus and constructs practices which embody them fully, providing a way to experience the dhatus within, and build ojas throughout your being. (12 one-hour practices)
