AYURVEDA--THE SCIENCE OF LIVING in HARMONY Tea by the Sea offers these choices to our customers to keep the body and spirit in harmony.

Ayurveda is a holistic medical system that has been practiced in India for thousands of years. In the ancient language of Sanskrit, ayus means life, and veda means knowledge. Ayurveda is thus THE SCIENCE OF LIVING. Each human being is made up of their own special mix of the three fundamental energies, or doshas, Although we can't see them, the three doshas are responsible for all processes of the mind and body. Like the foundations of a building, these underlying forces determine who we are physically and emotionally. To be healthy and happy, we must encourage balance among them. Each dosha is affected by the dietary choices that we make and thus the proper choices keep the body and spirit in harmony.
