Podcasts about Ayurveda

Winter is often misunderstood in modern wellness culture as a season to simply endure, yet Ayurveda recognizes it as a powerful time for nourishment, restoration, and deep tissue building. In this episode, Colette is joined by experienced Ayurvedic physician Dr. Sujatha Kekada for a classical and clinical exploration of winter wellness. Together, they move beyond surface-level seasonal advice to examine how winter influences the doshas, dhatus (tissues), srotas (channels), and ojas. Dr. Sujatha explains why aligning diet, routine, and mindset with this season is essential for long-term health and resilience. In this episode, you'll learn about: Why winter is considered a prime season for tissue nourishment and rebuilding in Ayurveda Which doshas and dhatus become most vulnerable when winter diet and routines are misaligned How winter impacts srotas (channel) integrity, with a focus on rasavaha srotas (plasma and lymph channels) and medovaha srotas (fat channel) The connection between winter emotions, mental heaviness, and manovaha srotas (mind channel) Influence of winter on ojas, our prime energy reserve, vitality and immunity Balancing nourishment and heaviness with the risk of stagnation in modern lifestyles Practical Ayurvedic food guidelines to support digestion, tissues, and vitality during winter Join the Group Digestive Reset Cleanse – Starting January 23rd, 2026 Ayurvedic cleansing is not about restriction, fasting or punishment it's about restoring balance and flow.

Most herbalists begin with books, teachers, and tradition, but genuine clinical mastery comes from organizing what you know into something you can actually use.

 Today's guest is someone who followed a deep soul level pole toward one sacred plant cacao. We're honored to be joined by Jonas Wonka, founder of Ora Cacao, whose journey with cacao began not as a business idea, but as a relationship. In this conversation, Jonas shares how cacao found him, what it means to work with this plant as a teacher rather than a commodity, and how ceremonial cacao can support emotional healing, presence, and heart connection in our modern, overstimulated world.We explore cacao through both spiritual and Ayurvedic lenses, including cacao versus coffee, doshic considerations, and how to work with cacao in a way that builds Ojas, rather than depletes it. This episode is an invitation to return to ritual and tension and relationship with plants, with ourselves and with the heart.Send us a textFor 20% off Kerala Ayurveda products, use code OjasOasis at checkoutFor 20% off GarryNSun products, use code OJASOASIS20 at checkoutFor 20% off Ora Cacao products, use OJASOASIS20 at checkout Receive $500 off your Panchakarma retreat at SoHum Healing Resort with code OjasOasisPK2025 Support the showTo learn more about working with us, please visit www.OjasOasis.com Connect with us @ojasoasis on Instagram, X, TikTok, and YouTube

This Capricorn New Moon episode marks the first lunation of 2026, inviting a collective pause for reflection, steadiness, and intentional rebuilding. Recorded in the early morning hours of January 18, the episode opens as a ritual space, slowing the breath, honoring embodied resilience, and contemplating the “bones” of our lives: the structures, commitments, and practices that have sustained us over the past decade. Through Capricorn's themes of devotion, endurance, and legacy, the conversation weaves together astrology and tarot, including the Devil card's sober invitation to examine where fear, survival strategies, or inherited systems still hold authority over us, and where greater spiritual authorship is being called forth. The episode also offers a deep astrological lens on the rare and powerful Saturn–Neptune transition, as both planets prepare to leave Pisces and enter Aries, culminating in their once-every-36-years conjunction at 0° Aries on February 21, 2026. This threshold signals a profound reset of personal and collective structures, asking us to integrate spirituality with responsibility, vision with action. The New Moon reflection is grounded by an exploration of Capricorn's sea-goat archetype, blending Saturnian discipline with Neptunian mysticism, and illustrated through the legacy of Alvin Ailey as an example of devotion turned into cultural architecture. The episode concludes in an intimate, ritual-lit space devoted to the Capricorn New Moon and its invitation into devotion, discipline, and long-term vision. Jeff Hinshaw is joined by composer, musician, and dancer Evan Hart Marsh for a wide-ranging conversation at the crossroads of astrology, artistry, and collaboration. Evan shares his unconventional creative path, beginning in music and movement, coming to formal dance training later than most, and ultimately weaving composition, choreography, and collaboration into a singular artistic language rooted in deep listening and care. The conversation expands into embodied listening, ritual, and mythic reflection, including a guided Mystic Meanderings journey with tarot, ancestry, and somatic imagination. Listeners are invited into Evan's recent works:  a collaborative piece, ‘If You Wanna Come Closer', that channels industrial transcendence with devotional intensity; the expansive, world-building score for ‘The Ocean World, Act I' from The Little Mermaid ballet;  and “A Job Well Done” from the short film Yuri;  Alongside reflections on Capricorns Sade and Alvin Ailey, yoga, Ayurveda, and nature as sustaining forces, this episode closes with an invitation to honor one's foundations, tend to creative and ancestral lineages, and practice embodied listening as a ritual of self-nurturance, especially under the quiet, powerful architecture of a Capricorn New Moon.

Steve Schwartz didn't start Art of Tea because tea was trendy. He started it after watching Western medicine fail his mother. That moment sent him down a path few founders take — studying Ayurveda, working in herbal pharmacies, traveling the world to source botanicals, and learning how plants affect the body at a deep, functional level. Art of Tea began in a living room, blending by hand, making just enough money to survive week to week. Today, it's an award-winning tea company trusted by the White House, Caesars Palace, Wolfgang Puck, Slack, and The Peninsula Hotel.  Make sure to check out Art of Tea at: https://bit.ly/442ubxt   Check out my new book on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4kRKGTX Register for Starting Small Summit 2026: https://startingsmallmedia.org/startingsmallsummit Watch our mini-doc - Starting Small: The Raw Truth Behind Entrepreneurship and the American Dream: https://youtu.be/eHuq93wIxs0?si=eDB-ycngvWNapRLO Visit Starting Small Media: https://startingsmallmedia.org/ Subscribe to exclusive Starting Small emails: https://startingsmallmedia.org/newsletter-signup   Follow Starting Small: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/startingsmallpod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Startingsmallpod/?modal=admin_todo_tour LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/cameronnagle

As winter settles in, many of us notice shifts in mood, energy, motivation, and emotional resilience.

Join Kamal, Mark and me for the Aryaa 2-Week Detox beginning January 26, 2026 at www.aryaaorganic.com. Mark and I will be sharing masterclass videos and recorded teachings, and I'll be doing the detox right alongside you for my third time! Step into a conversation that feels like a sacred masculine council with Kamal Hans and Mark Jenkins on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Two men from very different worlds, united by devotion, integrity, and embodied conscious leadership, join me for a powerful dialogue about purpose, alignment and what it truly means to live and lead from the heart. Kamal shares his courageous journey of walking away from massive financial success in the tobacco industry when his body and soul could no longer tolerate misalignment. That awakening led him to donate everything he had built and devote his life to creating Aryaa Organic, blending ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science, intention, and frequency to create food as medicine. Mark opens up about his extraordinary rise from growing up in Brooklyn during the crack era to joining the Navy at 17yrs, and how physical transformation became the doorway to confidence, leadership and service. His path from training people for free while living in the projects to training celebrities like Beyonce and the late D'Angelo, is a living example of humility, grit and embodiment. Together, we explore why true wellness must be sustainable, why detoxing is about far more than food or weight loss, and how intimacy, vitality and aligned relationships are created from the inside out. We also talk about: -Walking away from success when it costs your soul -Turning money, status and achievement into service and purpose -Food as medicine through frequency, intention and sacred design -Embodiment as the foundation of confidence and leadership -Growing up in survival yet choosing a new path forward -Why fitness alone is not wellness without nervous system regulation -Detoxing emotional suppression, numbing behaviors and old coping patterns -Intimacy as an inside job and the power of embodied generosity -Conscious business, wellness and intimacy as one unified devotion This episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing worth to external success and invest in the inner architecture that creates meaning, vitality, and love. You can also explore Mark's work at www.markjenkinsmethod.com and receive a complimentary month of his online training when you begin the detox with us. ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

When we talk about "anti" herbs — antibacterial, antiviral, antimicrobial — it's easy to imagine plants acting like tiny soldiers fighting pathogens. But in this post, we're exploring a classic herbal triplet from the British Herbal Pharmacopeia that reveals something more profound: that herbs rarely just "kill the bug." Instead, they strengthen, mobilize, and clear heat and infection. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why this classic antiseptic triplet is traditionally indicated for infections How Garlic, Wild Indigo, and Echinacea each act on the blood, lymph, mucosa, and immune system The difference between killing pathogens vs. supporting host resistance Specific situations where this trio has historically been used — and important cautions Key dosing considerations (especially with low-dose herbs like Wild Indigo) Practical ideas for combining and tempering these herbs   ———————————— 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.

In this profound wisdom session, Dylan sits with Dr Krishna Raju to explore how fear consciousness disrupts health, and how prāṇa, pulse awareness, and subtle Ayurvedic sciences restore balance at the deepest level.Rather than approaching disease as something external to fight, this conversation returns to a core Ayurvedic truth: health and illness arise first in consciousness.

Born in Guyana under British rule, she moved to New York as a teenager, studied acting with Stella Adler, and quickly became a successful fashion designer before turning toward a deeper spiritual calling. Returning to India, she spent a decade immersed in Sanskrit, Vedanta, Ayurveda, Yoga, and Vastu under the guidance of Swami Dayananda Sarasvati, setting the foundation for a lifetime of service, writing, and teaching.

A former Vedic monk of the revered Veda Vyasa lineage, she has spoken at the Parliament of the World's Religions and major interfaith gatherings worldwide, and is the recipient of the Dhanvatari and Rishi Awards for her contributions to Ayurvedic medicine. In 2010, she renounced her monastic title, choosing instead a simpler, more accessible life devoted to compassionate service and the healing of those most in need.   I Am Shakti: Reclaiming Women's Innate Power to Heal Themselves and Restore Balance, Health, Prosperity, and Joy for All Being by Maya Tiwari.  

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared launches a new series called Extraordinary Herbs, starting with one of the most widely used—and misunderstood—herbs today: ashwagandha. You'll learn how to use ashwagandha effectively in the real world, why extract type matters, how the most popular forms differ, and what actually determines results for different people. Jared breaks down what modern human research shows, as well as how this herb was traditionally used. Often labeled as the “de-stress herb,” ashwagandha shines as so much more! It supports healthy cortisol signaling, influencing sleep quality, hormone balance, exercise recovery, cognitive function, immune resilience, and thyroid health through the HPA axis. This episode breaks it all down without hype or confusion. Products:Sensoril AshwagandhaVital SleepAnxiety ReleaseMan Up!Man Up!

Ayurvedic practitioner and author Heather Grzych explores the question so many people are quietly asking: What's my purpose in life? Rather than offering a quick answer or career advice, this episode looks at why purpose feels so elusive right now, why so many people feel disconnected even when life looks "right" on paper, and how purpose actually emerges through small, embodied signals rather than logic or pressure. Drawing on cultural trends, a powerful statistic about meaning and direction, and the film Amélie as a metaphor, Heather explains why ignoring subtle inner cues leads to burnout and dissatisfaction, and how listening to what genuinely feels right can restore clarity, energy, and a sense of alignment. This episode is for anyone feeling stuck, questioning their direction, or sensing that something important is trying to surface beneath the noise. Heather Grzych, ADLC is an American author and expert in Ayurvedic medicine who was formerly the president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association and the head of product development for a multi-billion-dollar health insurance company. 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 2.5% 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

If you're feeling heavy, foggy, congested, or more run-down than usual as we move into January, this episode is for you.

Send us a textIn this New Year episode of Nourish the Nervous System, we explore winter not as a time for pushing forward or reinventing ourselves, but as a season of subtlety, listening, and inward refinement.Rather than loud resolutions or high-energy goals, winter invites a quieter kind of awareness — one that whispers instead of shouts. Through the Ayurvedic lens of Vata dosha and the Sanskrit quality sukshma (the subtle), we explore how this season affects the nervous system, our emotions, and our inner rhythms.This episode is an invitation to slow down, tune in, and honor sensitivity as a form of strength — not fragility.In this episode, we explore:Why New Year's energy can feel misaligned in the deep of winterThe contrast between summer's outward buzz and winter's inward stillnessVata dosha in winter, with a focus on sukshma (the subtle quality)How winter heightens nervous system sensitivity and perceptionSubtle signs many people notice this time of year, including:quiet or lingering fatiguelow-grade anxietyemotional waves without a clear storyincreased sensitivity to sound, light, and conversationTranslating Ayurveda into modern language:sensory processingnervous system loadWhy “subtle” does not mean weak — it means attunedHow winter can surface emotional material without anything being “wrong”The cultural pressure to feel “up” and productive — even in winterHonoring rest without slipping into stagnation or disconnectionPractical ways to support sukshma energy in winter:Softening the edges of your day and reducing transitionsCreating sensory nourishment with dim lighting, quiet, and warmthUsing warm oil (especially on the feet) to ground the nervous systemStaying connected to intuition through journaling, somatic awareness, or creative expressionBalancing subtlety with sthula (the gross, tangible quality) through grounding movement:strength-based exercisewalking outdoorsusing larger muscle groupsgetting fresh air and natural lightReflection questions for the week:What feels louder now that life is quieter?What is asking for attention?What no longer fits?You're invited to sit with these questions gently — through journaling, meditation, or simply noticing what arises.Mentioned in this episode:Gentle Ayurvedic Guide to Perimenopause Rhythm & Ritual — a small-group seasonal cohort for perimenopause, Ayurveda, and somatic supportSpring and Fall cohortsFocused on rhythm, nervous system regulation, and seasonal wisdomJoin the waitlist to learn moreWinter doesn't ask us to fix ourselves.

Look at just about any materia medica, and you will see the word "anti" in front of many an herbal action. These are subtypes of the antimicrobial action, such as antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiamoebic, and antimalarial.    When you see these words, it is easy to assume that the herbs they describe are like natural pharmaceuticals designed to "kill" pathogens. However, that framework can mislead you and sometimes lead to poor clinical choices.    In this article, we'll rethink the entire premise of "anti-herbs" and explore how they really work. Here's what you'll learn: Why the "anti-" framework (antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, etc.) can create an allopathic mindset about herbs That many herbs work by increasing host resistance rather than killing microbes directly Why the "antiviral" label is often misleading — and why there's no such thing as a true broad-spectrum antiviral What scientific Petri dish studies actually tell us (and where the big leaps in logic happen) How the "herbal antibiotic" idea falls short — and whether herbs can disrupt gut flora or drive resistance Why organ affinity and tissue energetics matter more than chasing the pathogen Common pitfalls caused by over-focusing on "killing" instead of restoring balance An introduction to my top 10 broad-spectrum "anti" herbs   ———————————— 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.

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.

What if starting something new isn’t the real challenge—but finishing it is? Why do so many projects, goals, and ideas die in the “messy middle”? What if completing a task isn’t just about willpower, but about shifting who you are at a deeper level? Are you a person who loves beginnings but avoids endings—or could you train yourself to finish with ease? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia explores the gap between starting and finishing. Drawing from science, Ayurveda, and her own life, she explains why our brains crave novelty but resist follow-through—and how to move from the dopamine rush of beginnings to the serotonin stability of completion. Through honesty, practical tools, and gentle insight, Radhi guides listeners to shift identity, build momentum, and cultivate the discipline needed to see projects through—all while learning to celebrate small wins along the way. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why starting is easy but finishing is hard—and how your brain tricks you How to turn “too many open drawers” into actionable focus Tools to create micro-finish lines and train your boredom muscle How to shift from being a “starter” to a “finisher” Ways to make progress sustainable, consistent, and personally rewarding This isn’t about working harder—it’s about finishing smarter.

Winter is not a season to detox or eat lightly!According to Ayurveda, it is a time of strong digestive fire, deeper nourishment, and intentional daily rhythm.In this episode, we explore how Ayurveda understands winter—specifically late winter in December and January—and why this season requires more warmth, oil, structure, and substance rather than restriction. You'll learn how strong agni behaves in winter, what happens when it isn't properly fed, and how under-eating can quietly deplete the body's tissues and immunity.We dive into winter diet and dinacharya, including the foods and spices that support digestion, the role of routine in protecting agni, and simple practices you can begin immediately to feel more grounded, nourished, and resilient through the colder months.This episode is a return to seasonal wisdom—practical and meant to be lived.Book an online consultation: www.simplyayurveda.careStay in touch on Instagram: @simplyayurveda___

Not a big fan of New Year's resolutions? Do you end up overdoing it, then dropping all of them by mid-January?That's because the attitude you're approaching goal-setting with is often not grounded in body, mind, and spirit. Most people set goals from the outside, which creates excess agitation and stimulation coming from rajas.There's an alternative to it: envisioning your year from the light of sattva to bring balance and harmony.In this episode, you'll discover:Why forcing outcomes disconnects us from trust and creates more stress and imbalanceWhat it means to take responsibility for your health and lifeHow the tools of Ayurveda and Yoga shape long-term wellbeingWhat to do instead of resolution-making, how to set your energy from the inside out before planningA sattvic exercise to plan the year (and the following ones) without losing direction when life shiftsReady to dive deeper into the practices of Ayurveda and guide others to do the same to support their well-being and heal from difficult symptoms and diseases? If leading others on this path feels like your dharma, or calling, we invite you to apply now for a free 1:1 clarity call with a member of our team so we can discuss your goals and see if our training feels aligned.Thanks for tuning in to the Everyday Ayurveda and Yoga at Hale Pule podcast.

Traditionell medicin möter modern forskning i en infekterad debatt om biverkningar, diagnoser och vetenskaplig granskning. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Programmet sändes första gången 20251014.I södra Indien har en infekterad konflikt blossat upp mellan förespråkare för ayurvedisk medicin och forskare som granskar dess effekter. Ayurveda är ett av världens mest använda traditionella hälsosystem, men när forskare i Kerala upptäcker ett samband mellan örtpreparat och allvarliga leverskador väcks starka reaktioner.Tungmetaller som kvicksilver och arsenik hittas i flera produkter, vilket leder till juridiska strider, avpublicerade studier och försök att tysta kritiken. Samtidigt försvarar ayurvediska läkare sin metod och menar att västerländsk medicin saknar förståelse för kroppens balans. Diagnosmetoder, synen på vetenskap och kulturella värden kolliderar i en debatt som rör både hälsa och identitet.WHO öppnar ett nytt kontor för traditionell medicin i Indien, i hopp om att hårdare regleringar ska stärka patientsäkerheten. Vetenskapsradion möter forskare, läkare och ayurvedapraktiker i ett polariserat landskap där vetenskap och tradition står på kollisionskurs.Reporter: Annika Östmanannika.ostman@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se

What Passion Really IsPassion is what you love.What you care about.What gets you out of bed in the morning.What lights your inner fire.And everyone has the desire to live a passionate life because we want to know we are not simply drifting—we want to create.2. Why Clarity MattersJanet explains that the Passion Test is filled with exercises that help you get so clear on your desires that when you close your eyes, you can actually see the life you want to create.It is an inside-out process—noticing the visions, feelings, and desires that arise when you ask:“When my life is ideal, I am…”3. Becoming a “Manifestation Magnet”Janet teaches the ancient Vedic principle:“Curving back on myself, I create again and again.”Through intentional reflection — across career, relationships, health, spirituality, lifestyle, and your environment — you begin to see the elements that truly matter to you.With enough clarity, vision turns to magnetism.The people, places, and opportunities begin to appear. The Formula for Living a Passionate LifeJanet shares her signature three-step formula:1. INTENTIONGet crystal clear on what you want.Take the Passion Test to identify your top five passions.2. ATTENTIONWhat you put your attention on grows.Focus your energy on what you choose to create — not what is lacking.3. NO TENSIONDo all you can do…and then surrender.Let go. Trust. Allow something even better to arrive.This is when manifestation accelerates.This is when passion turns into reality.And to learn more about The Peace Room, our Reiki treatments, healing workshops, and meditation resources, visit:www.thepeaceroom.love Thank you for listening, and thank yourself for taking 5 Minutes of Peace today.Join us again whenever you need a moment of calm, clarity, and connection.

As we step into a new year, many of us focus on resolutions, but what if a more powerful question is: How do I actually want to feel? In this episode, Colette explores Ayurvedic cleansing not as a quick detox or rigid reset, but as a gentle ritual, a way to digest the past, build resilience, and step into the year ahead with clarity, steadiness, and intention. Rather than pushing or restricting, this conversation invites you to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with digestion as the foundation of physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. If you're craving a nourishing fresh start that supports your nervous system and long-term health, this episode is for you. In this episode, we explore: Why the threshold between one year and the next is considered a potent time for healing  The lost art of ritual and why modern life often skips over important transitions How unprocessed experiences and emotions can create subtle ama (toxicity) in the body and mind Digestion as more than food, including how we digest experiences, emotions, and stress Why Ayurveda prioritizes preventative health and resilience, especially in an unpredictable world How gentle cleansing supports adaptability, immunity, and nervous system regulation Cleansing as an act of self-respect, not willpower or deprivation The role of community (sangha) and why group cleansing can be deeply supportive Links & Resources Discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse begins January 23rd, 2026. Check out all the Cleanse details here... https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/group-cleanse For a detailed breakdown of the cleanse structure and mechanics, listen to Episode 244: An Ayurvedic Digestive Reset Cleanse.
