Gut Glow: Ayurvedic Self-Massage for Digestion & Well-Being
Abhyanga for Gut Health: The Art of Self-Healing from the Inside Out
Nourish. Restore. Reconnect.
Your gut is more than just your digestive center - it’s your second brain, influencing mood, energy, and overall well-being. In Ayurveda, a healthy gut (agni) is the foundation of vibrant health, and one of the most effective ways to support digestion is through Abhyanga, the ancient practice of self-massage with warm, herbal oils.
Join us for this immersive two-hour workshop where you’ll learn how Ayurvedic self-massage can stimulate digestion, enhance detoxification, and support the gut-brain connection for better mood, energy, and balance.
✨ What You’ll Learn & Experience:
✅ The Gut-Brain Connection – Understanding how massage supports digestion, mood, and immunity
✅ Dosha-Specific Oils – Choosing the right oils for YOU
✅ Marma Points for Digestion – A guided practice targeting vital energy points to improve gut health
✅ Step-by-Step Self-Massage – Full-body Abhyanga techniques to support circulation, detoxification & relaxation
✅ Soothing Breathwork & Meditation – Activate the parasympathetic nervous system for deeper healing
Who is this for?
✔️ Anyone struggling with bloating, sluggish digestion, or stress-related gut issues
✔️ Those seeking better sleep, relaxation, and overall vitality
✔️ Yogis, wellness seekers, and anyone curious about Ayurvedic healing
✨ Bonus: End the session with warm herbal tea & a Q&A session to personalize your practice!
👐 Give your gut the care it deserves - massage your way to better digestion, calmer emotions, and a deeply nourished body. 🌿💛
Ayurvedic spring reset

The theory and key components of an Ayurvedic cleanse
Seasonal dietary guidelines to support digestion and detoxification
Herbal supplements and teas to enhance the body’s natural renewal process
Gentle yoga postures, meditation, and self-massage techniques to integrate throughout the cleanse
