Health and Ayurveda

Alena Powell, Valentina Rivoli, and Lucy Wong

Mission

Our goal is to dive into the field of health and explore the branches of physical health, mental health, and the tie between the two through nutrition. We chose to dive specifically into Ayurvedic treatments, which originated in India. There are three different types of energies called Doshas: Pitta, Vata, Kapha. These Doshas are prevalent in everyone but there is one Dosha that is dominant. This is based on physical attributes and personality traits. Within these dosha combinations, certain foods are said to be beneficial and detrimental to that type of person. Given this, our cookbook gathers insight about how to use ingredients found at home to practice living an Ayurvedic lifestyle. In addition, provides information about the history of Ayurveda and how it shaped India and other countries as well as the health and environmental aspects of Ayurveda. Another product is a book of poetry regarding mental health, also to be sold, to spread awareness to people with different types of mental health disorders and emotions. This topic is important to us since mental and physical health affects our planet and is something that not everyone has access to sustainment of. By selling this product, education and awareness will go to consumers.
