About Lakshmi

Two decades of study,
one honest conversation.

My journey with Ayurveda is not just a career — it is a lifelong calling that began over two decades ago. I first immersed myself in its wisdom in 2001, long before it became my professional path. That deep, foundational study became my anchor years later when my own health crisis unfolded.

I am a certified Ayurvedic practitioner (Kerala Ayurveda & NAMA), a trained Ayurvedic chef and nutritionist, and a 500-hour IYTA yoga teacher. My approach combines classical training with a practical understanding of modern Hong Kong life: the long hours, the travel, the family demands.

Ritual of the week

One small practice, this week.

A ritual from the clinic — short enough to actually do, chosen for the season we are in and the way most of us are living right now.

All rituals

Groundingvata12 minWeek of 9 November 2026

The evening oil-down

Twelve minutes of warm oil before bed — the simplest way to bring a scattered autumn into the body and out of the head.

Why this week: We are in Vata season: the air has dried out, the evenings are cooler, and almost everyone in clinic this week is waking between two and four in the morning. Oil on the skin settles the nervous system faster than anything you can drink.

1Warm a tablespoon of sesame oil between your palms.
2Massage the soles of the feet, then the scalp, then the joints — slowly, five minutes.
3Put on socks, sip warm water, and keep the lights low until sleep.

The seasonal guide

Living with the Hong Kong year.

Humidity, typhoons, air conditioning and a long damp winter ask something different of the body every few months. Here is what to eat, how to move and when to rest, season by season.

SpringMarch – May SummerJune – August AutumnSeptember – November WinterDecember – February

Open the seasonal guide Which ritual suits me?

Right now · Vata season · September – November

The air dries out and the mind speeds up.

By late September Hong Kong finally cools, the humidity drops and a breeze comes through. Vata — air and space — rises with it: dry skin, cracked lips, constipation, light sleep and a mind that will not settle.

Eating

Warm, oily and grounding: soups, stews, ghee, cooked roots, dates, soaked almonds.

Moving

Slow, grounding yoga or a steady walk — not the fast intervals of summer.

Resting

Warm sesame oil self-massage two or three times a week before bathing.

A short check

Which remedy or ritual might suit me?

Six questions on energy, digestion and sleep, about a minute. You will get one ritual to try this week, remedies from the apothecary, and the reading behind it.

Question 1 of 6

How does your energy move through the day?

In their words

Small shifts, lasting change.

Clients come for a consultation, a cleanse or a therapy and stay for the routine. These are their words, unedited.

“The Avipattikar Churna Lakshmi recommended worked wonderfully. Together with the yoga practices my wife taught me, my health is improving. Thank you so much for your wonderful guidance in Hong Kong. We deeply appreciate your holistic approach.”

“I've been doing the kitchari cleanse yearly since 2016. You feel lighter pretty much after day one, less bloated after day two, your sleep improves and the sugar cravings disappear.”

AGAurelie GauthierFranceKitchari cleanse

“I had an amazing experience working with Lakshmi at Ayurveda Hong Kong for a kitchari cleanse and yoni steaming. She is incredibly professional, and her instructions are always clear and easy to follow. What stands out most is how caring and supportive she is throughout the whole process—you really feel in safe hands. Thank you, Lakshmi!”

“Small, simple tweaks made a huge difference. Changing how and when I eat completely reset my energy levels. I feel lighter, calmer, and much more in tune with what my body actually needs.”
