  • Is Ayurveda a fad?
  • An approach built around the wheel
  • Moving toward holistic dealing with dis-ease
  • Moving society away from medicating

  • “Living food”

On CHI FOR YOURSELF: Ayurveda- Healing in an Unconventional Way

How much do you know about Ayurveda? On our next CHI FOR YOURSELF we’ll hear from a woman who turned to this 5,000 year old tradition when she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Ayurveda resonated with Michelle Fondin because she was searching for ways to understand why she was sick and for ways to actively participate in her healing– rather than just turn it over to experts and protocols. Michelle Fondin is the author of THE WHEEL OF HEALING WITH AYURVEDA: An Easy Guide to a Healthy Lifestyle.
