​Agni & Soma
Nutrition Class!

Agni and Soma are Fire and Nectar. The nectar is the nourishment which comes in many forms, including food. The fire is the digestive capacity required to alchemize the food into true nectar that deeply nourishes the body, mind and life. 


True nutrition is not about what you eat! It is about what you digest. In fact, without balanced digestive fire, the food you eat, the so-called perfect herbal remedies you take, all turn into toxic sludge, called "ama" in Āyurveda. What and how you digest will depend on your constitution, the season, your eating habits and routines and your relationship to food and life.

In this course, we dive into the two sides of the eating coin. In the Agni Class, you'll gain understanding your individual "digestive constitution". You'll learn how to self-assess and then heal your digestion, simply. In the Soma Class, you'll learn which foods are the most deeply nourishing, and how to take them once your digestion is balanced. 

We have a modern obsession with cleansing, dieting, and removing foods that we are sensitive to {which are often deeply nourishing foods}. Simultaneously, we have an epidemic of depletion and fatigue. We have missed the point... that food is meant to deeply nourish, and that digestion is designed to get the most out of nourishing resources of foods and herbs. 

The wealth of your health comes from making all of life, including food and digestion sacred. Here's to you and your sacred life and health! 

Agni & Soma Nutrition! 

Certain foods have a high soma quotient, that deeply nourish the bodily tissues, the heart and the mind. But these foods are only true soma if they are digested by your agni in the form of balanced digestive fire. 

With refined agni as the inner fire, and soma-rich foods as the inner soma you can truly transform your health. 

Delve into two part class with Kaya that take the Ayurvedic nutrition perspective on Agni and Soma, so you can incorporate these profound principles into your digestion and assimilate the food nectar to fuels your beautiful life.
