Hey guys, welcome to Ayurveda 101 with Kaytee Hernandez! Kaytee is a Latinx Yoga Therapist with a degree in Integrative Medicine and Maharishi Ayurveda. Whether you’re brand new to Ayurveda or already familiar with this ancient science, I promise you'll walk away from this episode with valuable insights. As someone just beginning to incorporate Ayurvedic practices myself, I’m excited to learn from Kaytee, who will break down this intricate system in a way that feels approachable for anyone.


In this episode, we’ll cover it all—from the foundational principles, like the three pillars of health and the five elements, to the three doshas (and how to figure out yours!). We’ll also dive into supporting mental health from an Ayurvedic lens and how you can cultivate balance in your life through movement, nutrition, and how you spend your time. Expect tons of practical tips and inspiration to start embracing Ayurveda right away!


Here are some of the key topics we’ll explore:

  • The three pillars of health and why they are essential for well-being.
  • The elements and the characteristics of the three primary doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha).
  • How to identify your dosha and live more in sync with nature’s rhythms.
  • Understanding the mental doshas (Tamas, Rajas, Sattva) and how balancing them can transform your mindset.
  • The Ayurvedic rule of similars and opposites—what it means and how to use it in everyday life.
  • Practical, beginner-friendly ways to integrate Ayurveda into your busy, modern lifestyle.

    • This episode is packed with wisdom, and I can’t wait for you all to hear from Kaytee! Let’s dive in.
