Exercise: The Ayurvedic View & Proper Exercise (Vyāyāmā) | Dylan Smith #112

What does true exercise actually look like?

How can we reap the maximum health benefits from our movement practice?

Beyond inflated six packs and good looks, although those physiological changes may manifest, the ancient Ayurvedic seers shared physiological benefits of proper exercise, and how to reap the results, all in the name of health.

They also shared how to do this without potentially damaging your physiology, as improper exercise is currently quite persistent in our modern day culture.

In fact, what a lot of people are practicing in the gyms today would be more appropriately referred to as “body-building” or increasing heart-rate and stressing the body out.

While these practices may provide some benefit, I want to share with you the principles of Ayurveda, the laws of Nature, and how you can integrate that knowledge into your exercise routine.

Because a fact of reality is that every body, every body’s needs and every type of movement and exercise is different and unique.

Utilising Ayurvedic principles can support you to get the most out of the movement practice that you gravitate towards and enjoy.
