Yoga & Ayurveda

During the upcoming Yoga Retreat, 11 – 13 September 2026, Danielle Gonsal Abundant Health Catering is cooking our delicious vegetarian meals. She will be leading a workshop / talk on the topic of Ayurveda as well. Here a small snippet of what you can expect:

Ayurveda for Women: The Doshas, Digestion & the Wisdom Years

This workshop is a gentle introduction to Ayurveda, an ancient system of health that helps us understand how food, lifestyle, rest, and daily rhythms influence our wellbeing. You do not need any prior knowledge of Ayurveda to attend. Together we will explore the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—in a simple, relatable way, looking at how they show up in everyday life and particularly during perimenopause and menopause. We’ll talk about digestion, energy, sleep, stress, and practical self-care tools that can help women feel more nourished, grounded, and supported during the changing seasons of midlife. Expect a warm, conversational session with reflection, gentle wisdom, and practical ideas you can begin using straight away.

This session is hosted by Danielle Gonsal, Ayurvedic Retreat Chef and author of the book ‘Retreat Into Ayurveda’. Danielle’s passion lies in supporting women in differing stages of life through nourishment and sharing about the Ayurvedic Wisdom Ways.
