Gut Health and Ayurveda Cookery Day

Saturday 16th May 9.30am – 4pm
At a Private venue (details sent on booking), Torquay, Devon

At the heart of Ayurveda is the food we eat. What we put into our body and the way in which this is done creates our body tissues and cells, produces our energy, can change our mood and can either create health or disease.
