In this episode, we trace the surprising history of how tea became India's most beloved beverage - through colonial trade routes, opium, and clever British marketing.Mira shares chai-making secrets passed down through generations: from the Ayurvedic ritual of boiling milk three times, to unlocking spice potency with proper preparation (spoiler: whole ginger slices won't cut it).

"Darkness doesn't resist light. If you're in a dark room, all you have to do is turn on a very little candle and now you can see again. If people are seeing darkness in the world, make the light brighter"In this deeply illuminating episode, I sit down with Dr. Nibodhi—a longtime friend, Ayurvedic practitioner, naturopathic doctor, and devoted student of consciousness. Our conversation is a soul-stirring journey through the intersections of trauma, spiritual awakening, ancient medicine, and modern-day healing tools like psychedelics and breathwork.We explore the foundational wisdom of Ayurveda, not just as a physical health system, but as a path toward remembering who we truly are. Nibodhi shares his personal story of early childhood trauma, the unconscious patterns it created, and the moment of awakening that allowed him to stop seeking and begin exploring. From mystical plant medicine ceremonies to navigating grief and disconnection, we talk about how healing really happens—through presence, integration, and reclaiming the parts of ourselves we've long abandoned.If you've been curious about the true purpose of your healing journey, or felt pulled to deeper levels of embodiment and self-trust, this episode is going to land deeply. It's not about feeling better—it's about becoming better at feeling.TODAY'S HIGHLIGHTS(00:00) Intro(01:21) Dr. Nibodhi: Growing up with natural medicine and understanding Ayurveda(04:36) The body-mind connection in Ayurvedic wisdom(09:37) Uncovering core trauma(15:26) Breaking free from patterns(18:57) The sacred use of psychedelics(25:39) Reincarnation, the cycles of life, and figuring out who we are(37:31) Global transformation: An Ayurvedic perspective(50:05) Becoming better at feeling and personalized healing approaches**WAYS TO ENTER MY WORLD**  When you leave a review of the podcast, send us a screenshot and we'll send you a $250 credit, you can apply to anything else in my world.The Minimorphosis Learn my Simple 5 Step Inner Child Healing Process to dissolve the one core wound that slows down your growth. Core Wound Solution Private Podcast Join 1,000+ women discovering the real root of their stuckness— and how to shift it for good.

What if your stress, your “I'm fine,” and your daily grind were actually symptoms of something deeper—dis-ease, not ease? What if there was a way to live with more joy, more vitality, and yes… more bliss? Dr. Roberta Garceau joins me to share the heart of her new book, Bliss, Not Burnout, and her powerful message for anyone stuck in survival mode. We talk about thriving—not just getting by—and how you can reconnect with what matters most. Key points in this episode: • Elemental Wellness • Embodied Self-Awareness • Tools You Can Actually Use (Right Away) You'll hear how ancient wisdom from Ayurveda blends beautifully with practical, real-world tools that fit your busy life. We also dive into Roberta's personal growth journey—from dentistry to author, speaker, and wellness leader—and how coaching helped her think bigger, stretch further, and show up more powerfully in the world. She didn't stop at “good enough.” And you don't have to either. If you're feeling like burnout is creeping in, this conversation will open up something new for you.

Wellness expert and author Heather Grzych interviews Jill Pepper, CEO of Ozer Health, for a thought-provoking conversation about how the U.S. health insurance system really works—from the inside out. Together, they explore why so many Americans feel frustrated or failed by Western medicine, the critical gaps in the system, and why Eastern and natural medicines like Ayurveda often sit on the outskirts of mainstream care. They dive into what makes someone trust a healthcare provider, why trying holistic modalities can feel strange at first, and how to increase access to and adoption of natural healing approaches. It's a powerful dialogue between two women who have navigated both conventional and alternative medicine industries—and are passionate about transforming how we care for our bodies and minds. Jill Pepper, CEO at Ozer Health, with over 18 years in healthcare and employer wellness solutions, has extensive experience in western group insurance for large employer groups, wellness program sales, retention, and strategic distribution. Previously serving in leadership roles, she managed key relationships with employer groups, focusing on traditional western insurance, wellness programs' strategy and engagement and customer relationship management. For the past 15 months, Jill has directed her expertise toward launching The Ozer Health app, a digital platform aimed at delivering an accessible, holistic health solution that marries western and eastern practices. Her background also includes consulting services and advisory roles, such as her contributions to Impact100 Nashville board, where she continues to engage with healthcare innovation and community health initiatives.  Heather Grzych, ADLC is an American author and expert in Ayurvedic medicine who was formerly the head of product development for a multi-billion-dollar health insurance company. She currently serves as the president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association and is part of the faculty at Mount Madonna Institute College of Ayurveda. Heather's first book, The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility, has sold thousands of copies worldwide, and her writing has been featured in Sports Illustrated, Yoga Journal, and the Sunday Independent. Her podcast, Wisdom of the Body, holds an average rating of 5 stars on Apple Podcasts and is in the top 3% of podcasts globally.  Connect with Heather: Learn more at www.heathergrzych.com   Instagram.com/heathergrzych Facebook.com/grzychheather   Read the first six pages of The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility for FREE: https://www.heathergrzych.com   Connect with Heather to balance your health with Ayurveda: https://www.heathergrzych.com/book-online

Click here to send me a quick message :) We're all navigating so much right now. Collectively, relationally, personally.This week's episode explores three different frames for understanding and tending your nervous system when it's stretched, strained, burnt out or plain dysregulated.In addition to the collective unrest so many of us are feeling, this week I learned about the loss of John Gallagher (founder of Learning Herbs).What has struck me most about the loss (aside from honoring his immense legacy in modern herbalism) was that he was struggling. With insomnia, anxiety, and depression.And that the current political climate, including the potential for immense ecological loss, was part of what may have tipped his mental health struggles over the edge. It's just so big, all of it. And so many of us are feeling it.And whatever we're struggling with - collectively, relationally, personally - we're all navigating something right now. I want to acknowledge that, rather than gloss over it, and offer some resources and tools that may perhaps be useful for you in these tumultuous times. We all have to find our way, and we don't have to do it alone. Which reminds me of Alexandra Blakely's song:"you do not carry this all aloneno you do not carry this all alonethis is way too big for youto carry this on your ownso, you do not carry this all alone"It's not a song, or an herb, or a practice that will heal us. It's a collective practice that is ongoing.But if you're interested in some powerful ways to tend your nervous system in these times, listen to the wisdom from Efan Hsieh, Kristen Timchak and myself in this week's medley episode for some inspiration.** dedicating this episode to the memory of John Gallagher **Resources:Grab the free guide: Track your cycle with FAM (and symptom tracking)Today's shownotes: 3 paths to nervous system tending in tumultuous timesEpisode 41: How nature connection can calm burnout w Efan HsiehEpisode 50: Adaptogens + hormonal healthEpisode 97: Nourish your nervous system with Ayurveda w Kristen TimchakIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdomAnd if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

In this episode of Healthy Waves, we dive deep into the power of breath with Dr. Roberta Garceau—a dentist, yoga and Ayurveda practitioner, and sleep medicine expert. Drawing from her book Bliss, Not Burnout, Dr. Garceau explains how conscious breathing is more than just a wellness trend—it's a transformative tool for emotional regulation, energy alignment, and mental clarity. She shares real-life examples, practical breath work techniques, and insights on how even in the chaos of healthcare or hustle culture, a single mindful breath can create radical calm. Whether you're a high-performer or just feeling overwhelmed, this episode is your reminder to pause, breathe, and begin healing from within. About the Guest:Dr. Roberta Garceau blends her clinical background in dentistry and sleep medicine with Eastern healing practices to offer an integrative approach to wellness. She's the author of Bliss, Not Burnout, a practical guide for healthcare professionals and anyone seeking balance in a fast-paced world. Through her platform Elemental Wellness, Dr. Garceau teaches how air, breath, and awareness can restore harmony in both body and mind. Key Takeaways: Conscious breathing can regulate both emotional and physical health in real time. Exhalation-first techniques help calm anxiety and reduce tension. Breath is a bridge between burnout and balance, especially in caregiving or high-stress environments. Small daily moments—driving, walking, even bathroom breaks—are perfect for integrating mindful breath. Aligning breath with the elements (air, earth, fire) helps tailor energy regulation to your body's needs.

One stimulates, one relaxes—and together they create a powerful synergy that supports circulation, respiration, and neuromuscular function.  You'll also hear insights on how their energetic and constitutional profiles apply to vāta patterns in Ayurveda and Mercury archetypes in astrology.

In this special episode, Melissa connects with longtime friend and renowned psychosomatic therapist Frida, founder of Body Nature Therapies in Byron Bay. Frida shares her personal and professional journey—from a background in fine arts to pioneering her Body Mapping Method, a therapeutic process that bridges the body-mind connection.  Frida explains what psychosomatic therapy really is (hint: it's simpler than you think!), and how disconnection between body and mind often lies at the root of illness, fatigue, and sexual dysfunction. With wisdom grounded in yoga, Ayurveda, remedial bodywork, and Eastern and Western healing philosophies, she shares how aligning your physical form can profoundly impact your mental and emotional wellbeing.  From postural alignment to pelvic floor balance and the power of the breath, this conversation uncovers the life-changing benefits of reconnecting to your body—especially for men dealing with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or post-cancer recovery.  In This Episode, We Cover:  What is psychosomatic therapy—and how can it help?  Frida's journey from artist to bodyworker to therapist  The Body Mapping Method: what it is, how it works, and why it's so powerful  How posture and muscle tone affect sexual function, stress, and overall health  Real-life client transformations through simple body realignment and breathwork  Why balance (front/back, top/bottom) in the body is essential—especially for men  The link between gym routines, hypertonic pelvic floors, and erectile dysfunction  Why breath is the unsung hero of healing and optimal sexual health  Key Takeaways:  Your body tells a story. Posture and breath reflect your stress, habits, and mindset.  Balance matters. Overtraining visible muscles while neglecting the rest (like glutes and pelvic floor) can contribute to erectile dysfunction and pain.  Small tweaks, big impact. Conscious breathing, posture correction, and gentle movement can lead to major improvements in wellbeing and sexual health.  The body remembers. Emotional trauma can live in our tissues; releasing it through bodywork can be incredibly healing.  Self-agency is powerful. When you understand your body, you reclaim the power to heal.    Expert Insights:  “You are not a sum of disconnected parts—you are one beautiful, functional whole.”  — Melissa Hadley Barrett  “The breath connects everything. Your nervous system depends on the frequency and depth of the breath.”  — Frida  About Frida & Body Nature Therapies:  Frida is a psychosomatic therapist, yoga teacher, remedial massage practitioner, and artist. She founded Body Nature Therapies in 2004 and developed the unique Body Mapping Method, a process that uses illustrated posture analysis to help people visually reconnect with their bodies.  With decades of experience and a deep passion for self-empowerment and natural healing, Frida helps clients access lasting change—physically, mentally, and emotionally.   Learn more: Instagram - @body_nature_therapies  Available for online consultations https://bodynature.org/     Resources & Links:  Book a telehealth consult with our sexual health nurse practitioners at Restorative Health Clinic  For more information check out our websites www.rshealth.com.au , www.makehardeasy.com.au    https://bodynature.org/  Listen & Subscribe  If you found this episode helpful, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!

Welcome to the second installment in our Anatomy of a Formula series. In this post, we'll examine a classic North American herbal duo: the archetypal stimulant, Cayenne (Capsicum annuum), and the archetypal relaxant, Lobelia (Lobelia inflata).  If you missed the introductory post, which explored a brief history of formulation in Western herbalism and the strategic thinking behind herbal pairs and triplets, be sure to check it out[LINK]—it sets the stage for this series and what we're diving into today.   Here's what you'll learn in this epsisode: Why Cayenne and Lobelia—seemingly opposing herbs—create powerful synergy in herbal formulas How this pairing acts on multiple systems, including circulatory, respiratory, and neuromuscular Key energetic patterns (Western, Ayurvedic, and astrological) that guide the use of these herbs Traditional and modern uses of Cayenne–Lobelia combinations Clinical considerations: where this pair works well, and where to use caution How to think constitutionally and systemically rather than symptomatically when formulating with pairs   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine. With perspectives gleaned from traditional Western herbalism, Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine, Alchemy, Medical Astrology, and traditional cultures from around the world, The Plant Path provides unique insights, skills and strategies for the practice of true holistic herbalism. From clinical to spiritual perspectives, we don't just focus on what herbs are "good for," but rather who they are as intelligent beings, and how we can work with them to heal us physically and consciously evolve.   ———————————— ABOUT SAJAH ———————————— Sajah Popham is the author of Evolutionary Herbalism and the founder of the School of Evolutionary Herbalism, where he trains herbalists in a holistic system of plant medicine that encompasses clinical Western herbalism, medical astrology, Ayurveda, and spagyric alchemy. His mission is to develop a comprehensive approach that balances the science and spirituality of plant medicine, focusing on using plants to heal and rejuvenate the body, clarify the mind, open the heart, and support the development of the soul. This is only achieved through understanding and working with the chemical, energetic, and spiritual properties of the plants. His teachings embody a heartfelt respect, honor and reverence for the vast intelligence of plants in a way that empowers us to look deeper into the nature of our medicines and ourselves. He lives on a homestead in the foothills of Mt. Baker Washington with his wife Whitney where he teaches, consults clients, and prepares spagyric herbal medicines.    ———————————— WANT TO FEATURE US ON YOUR PODCAST? ———————————— If you'd like to interview Sajah or Whitney to be on your podcast, click here to fill out an interview request form.

Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery.

You must check out this fascinating and illuminating conversation with Rohini Walker, British-Indian writer and devoted practitioner of soul-body liberation. Rohini moved to the desert of Joshua Tree, California with her husband from London, England in 2013 and began a creative journey of writing, mentoring, and consulting. Rohini co-founded the arts and cultural print periodical Luna Arcana, with Martin Mancha (Ted's cousin) Ted was inspired to have Rohini as a guest because of her article titled “Committing to Digestion in the Information Age.” In this article from her newsletter Letters from Luna, Rohini discusses the over-consumption of information that has become addictive and normalized. Like going from one all-you-can-eat buffet to another without allowing anything to digest, this incessant consumption of news and social media keeps us distracted, anxious, and uncomfortable in our bodies with “hot heads and cold bellies.” Drawing from Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and other indigenous wisdom traditions, Rohini shares how she works with her clients to have greater connection with one's body as well as to the natural world, allowing us to cultivate “Cool heads and warm bellies”.  This episode is guaranteed to give you some things to think about.

Be guided today in a mini-workshop on hand mudras as you deepen your inner wisdom through touch. Your hands are not just tools for manipulating the external world; they are intricate extensions of your nervous system, deeply connected to your brain and your subtle energy body. In ancient wisdom traditions, particularly those like Yoga and Ayurveda, hand gestures known as mudras are understood as powerful keys to specific energy flows and states of consciousness. THIS WEEK'S THEME: "Silent Stories: Listening to Your Body's Wisdom" Welcome to "Silent Stories: Listening to Your Body's Wisdom," a transformative 7-day meditation series. Our bodies are incredible repositories of wisdom, holding not just our physical experiences but also our emotions, memories, and intuition. Often, in the rush of daily life, we tune out these subtle, yet profound, messages. This series is an invitation to re-establish a loving and attentive dialogue with your body. Each day, we'll explore a different technique to help you tune in, decode the silent stories your body is always telling, and foster deeper self-understanding and healing.

Are wellness retreats just luxury getaways, or can they transform your health? In this episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I speak with Dr. Vishal Patel, who explains how most wellness gadgets might be causing more stress than health benefits.  We explore the science behind Sensei's approach, including how thermal imaging can detect muscular imbalances before they cause pain, and why most saunas aren't hot enough to deliver benefits. Dr. Patel debunks popular wellness myths, shares why foot strength is the foundation of longevity, and explains why tracking obsession can be counterproductive.  Dr. Vishal Patel is the Chief Scientific Officer at Sensei, a wellness retreat company co-founded by Larry Ellison and Dr. David Agus. With a background as a physician with a PhD in genetics, Dr. Patel combines Western medicine with Eastern practices like Ayurveda to create evidence-based wellness approaches that focus on personalization rather than rigid rules.
