🌿 International Ayurveda Day 2026 – Health & Consciousness 🌿

What does it mean to live well — not only physically, but in harmony with ourselves and the world around us?

Join Consciousness Oslo & Økouka for an evening dedicated to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of health and well-being that looks at the connection between*body, mind, lifestyle and nature.
