Sahara Rose, the author of The Idiot’s Guide to Ayurveda & Eat Feel Fresh, was one of the six people featured in the Longevity Now All-Stars episode released a couple weeks back (episode #147). She had so much Ayurvedic wisdom to share that I had to get her back behind the mic a second time while we were at the conference so that I could extract some more of that knowledge and share it with all of you.

If you’re not familiar with Ayurveda, let me give you a quick rundown: It’s the world’s oldest health system, originating in India over 5,000 years ago as a sister science to yoga. A ton of the common sense health practices we do today – and many of the health “trends” popular in the wellness world – can actually be traced back to Ayurveda.

Sahara represents the next step of Ayurvedic tradition and, according to Deepak Chopra, she is leading our generation into a new paradigm shift – a paradigm that reflects the melding of Ayurvedic healing and spiritual wisdom with modern Western nutritional science and psychology.

Need Ayurveda 101? Desperately want to live a life aligned with your purpose? Craving a different perspective on the mind-body connection? Just want better digestion?

Sahara and the Ayurvedic tradition have you covered for all of that and more.
