Welcome to Ayurveda Mum

Ayurveda Mum is your space for practical Ayurveda—bringing balance, nourishment, and well-being into modern life for you, your family, and your work. In today’s fast-paced world, slowing down isn’t always easy, but even small shifts can have a profound impact on how we feel and heal.

One of my favorite quotes is: “Listen to the heart when it whispers, so we don’t have to hear it scream.” Ayurveda helps us recognize the body’s signals before imbalance turns into illness. Through nourishing food, mindful rituals, seasonal cleansing, deep rest, and yoga, we can restore energy and create sustainable well-being.

I bring Ayurveda, yoga, and holistic practices into daily life and the workplace, offering corporate wellness workshops and holistic burnout prevention to support stress relief, focus, and balance. I also host small-group circles, sound baths, breathwork, and cacao ceremonies to help you pause, reconnect, and restore. And at the heart of it all is food—Ayurvedic recipes are a cornerstone of my work, and I’m excited to share them in my upcoming book.

For a deep reset, join my Ayurvedic Detox, available online or in person at our Naia Retreats in the Algarve. It’s the perfect way to cleanse, nourish, and restore balance in a fully supported space.

Wherever you are on your journey, Ayurveda Mum is here to support you.

Testimonials

"I really enjoyed all detoxes I did with Daphny. It's so nice to take a step back from busy life and go inwards. It was a time to really care for myself, schedule a lot of me time and cut down on social media. I always have a lot of energy after the detoxes and it's a good incentive for a healthier lifestyle afterwards. Daphny is really helpful and provides a lot of information about Ayurveda. I really loved the recipes as well. Will definitely join another detox in the future!"

"The detox we did was very well hosted by Daphny. All the information we needed was available a few days before we started so we could prepare and get everything we needed. During the detoxdays she kept in touch, shared information and was available for us. We look forward to the next time. Tanx Daphny."

"Daphny has a lovely aura with gentle teachings of how Ayurveda can be used in my life which is so fascinating. The Detox was yummy and I felt so energised afterwards and I’m now in a nice rhythm of getting up early, having time to focus on myself and cooking with gorgeous Indian spices which I wouldn’t have had a clue how to use or know how beneficial they are to my health."

Ayurvedic Recipes

In Ayurveda, food is much more than nourishment—it’s our medicine. By eating in harmony with the seasons and your dosha (energy type), you can support your body’s natural balance, prevent disease, and promote lasting health.

Each season brings unique challenges for the body, and Ayurveda teaches us how to adapt through mindful, seasonal cooking. Whether it’s warming, grounding meals in autumn to pacify Vata, cooling, hydrating recipes in summer to calm Pitta, or energizing, nourishing foods in spring to balance Kapha, our recipes align your diet with nature’s rhythm.

Cooking Ayurvedic meals doesn’t have to be complicated—it’s about creating delicious, nourishing dishes that your whole family can enjoy. By understanding what we eat, why we eat it, and the power of the food we choose, you can support your loved ones’ health while fostering balance and vitality at every meal.
