Dr. Shivani Gupta comes from a family of people with diabetes, generation by generation, where she's seen the after-effects of suffering with chronic metabolic disease.  Her new book, The Inflammation Code (launching, distills 20 years of studying Ayurveda into simple pillars you can apply to prevent the level of inflammation and disease we see today. When people tell her, "I have brain fog, I'm tired, my sleep is off, my digestion's off, I have stubborn weight gain…I guess this is just aging," her reply is, "No, it's not aging, it's inflammaging." We had a really excellent, in-depth conversation that covered a lot of ground, from black pepper and the blood-brain-barrier to our detox experiences in India. I hope you enjoy the podcast! In this podcast, Dr. Gupta and I discuss: Her study of Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old system from India that taught us the circadian clock, modern science discovered what Ayurveda taught 5,000 years ago about living in rhythm with nature The three doshas or constitutions of Vata (air/ether), Pitta (fire/water), and Kapha (earth/water)—understanding your constitution helps customize your self-care practices and diet The circadian clock in Ayurveda teaches that 10:00 to 2:00 PM is Pitta (fire) time, when you're most focused and energetic, and meant to eat your biggest meal 10:00 PM to 2:00 AM is the most important time to be asleep, when Pitta fire cleans and clears inflammation, the lymphatic system, and the glymphatic system (lymphatic system of the brain) Vata people are always in motion and prefer jobs where they don't sit still—they're endurance athletes who can run through the day on coffee, green juice, and crackers (but their homework is three square meals) Pitta people are fiery, passionate leaders who tend to crave hot, oily, spicy fried food…but that's the one thing they shouldn't eat because their digestive fire is already like a bonfire! Kapha people are sturdy, strong, and very grounded, but can struggle with sluggish metabolism, low mood or depression, getting stuck, or not wanting to create change Black pepper increases curcumin absorption by 2,000%—scientists at MD Anderson Cancer Center discovered this, which is why traditional Indian cooking always uses turmeric with black pepper What it feels like to experience a Panchakarma detox in India: "massage that feels like abuse" with paper thongs—Dr. Gupta says, "I can't believe you're allowed to do this to me and I'm paying for it" (both she and I had this experience!) Mental inflammation is the stress we create when forcing ourselves to be healthy; if you force workouts, force protein, force intermittent fasting, the stress alone causes the inflammation you're trying to prevent

Do you know whether you're Vata, Pitta, or Kapha...and could that explain your stubborn symptoms in midlife? In this episode, I'm joined by my brilliant friend Dr. Shivani Gupta, and we dive into Ayurveda, inflammation, and why your body might be asking for a completely different approach right now. Have you ever wondered why turmeric seems to work like magic for pain, migraines, or inflammation? Or why the same routines that used to work suddenly don't anymore in perimenopause? We unpack how ancient Ayurvedic wisdom meets modern science—and why that combination matters so much for women over 40. We also go beyond supplements and symptoms into the deeper shifts of midlife. Is menopause actually an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and redesign your life? What if your fatigue, brain fog, or weight gain isn't failure, but feedback? This conversation might completely change how you see this season! In this episode, we uncover: How your elemental design influences inflammation, energy, and hormone balance. Why curcumin works so powerfully—and what most supplements get wrong. What Ayurveda says about perimenopause as a physical and spiritual transition. How simple daily rituals can replace willpower and finally stick. Why mental and emotional inflammation matter as much as hormones. If you're ready to rethink menopause and feel more at home in your body, this episode is for you.

Experiencing insomnia, restless nights, or waking up feeling tired even after a long night's sleep?Have you noticed how sleep issues often come and go with stress, overstimulation, or irregular routines?From Ayurveda, we know sleep disturbances aren't random or something to override with quick fixes.Nidra, or rest, is one of the four pillars of health. It's essential for balanced agni (digestion), the development of ojas (immunity or zest for life) and a calm, clear mind. When sleep is disturbed, the doshas become aggravated, especially vata, and true restoration through digestion cannot occur.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why sound, restful sleep is a sign of true health• The most common sleep disturbances and their root causes in Ayurveda• How overstimulation, digestion, and daily routines impact sleep quality• Why sleeping pills and over-the-counter aids don't resolve the root cause• Simple, natural practices to restore deep, nourishing sleep and resilienceReady 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.

Ayurveda can feel deeply nourishing and also overwhelming especially when you've been learning for a long time and don't know where to begin, how to stay consistent, or how to soften self-pressure along the way. In this solo Ayurveda Q&A episode, Colette answers thoughtful questions from the Elements of Ayurveda Podcast Community, exploring how to work with overwhelm, perfectionism, and stress through the lens of daily habits, nervous system health, and rhythm rather than rigidity. This episode is an invitation to approach your health with more awareness, curiosity, and compassion, and to remember that healing doesn't require doing everything perfectly, it asks us to show up gently and consistently. In this episode, you'll learn: Where to begin with Ayurveda when you've absorbed a lot of information and feel overwhelmed Why daily habits are one of the most underestimated, yet powerful tools for long-term healing How perfectionism can arise from different doshic patterns, especially Vata nervous system instability and Pitta rigidity or intensity Practical ways to soften perfectionism and support the nervous system through grounding, rhythm, and compassion How to stay consistent with Ayurvedic routines during busy or stressful periods without relying on willpower Why community, shared reflection, and support play a vital role in sustainable healing A contemplative closing reflection on shifting from self-criticism to curiosity Mentioned in this episode: Elements of Ayurveda Podcast Community   A conscious, supportive online space to deepen your Ayurvedic journey together, including: Early access to podcast episodes Monthly live Zoom meetups Member forums for discussion and Q&A Mindfulness and self-care practices Seasonal group challenges Check out all the details on the community here... https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/community Daily Habits for Holistic Health  A 28-day self-paced online program designed to help you bring Ayurvedic wisdom into lived, daily practice.

Ayurvedic practitioner and author Heather Grzych explores why the question "What is my purpose?" so often feels impossible to answer, and why trying to figure out your life purpose by thinking harder can actually make you feel more stuck, anxious, and disconnected. This episode examines the physical and emotional signs people experience when their life no longer fits, including burnout, fatigue, lack of motivation, and low-grade anxiety. Heather explains how purpose is not a mental decision or career choice, but something that reveals itself when you stop forcing answers and start listening to your body, your energy, and your lived patterns over time. This episode is for anyone feeling lost after a life transition, questioning their work or direction, or searching for meaning beyond productivity and external expectations. This is part 3 of a series on finding your purpose. 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.

Dr. Gupta's journey is a compelling story of transformation, moving from a childhood marked by chronic illness and over-reliance on antibiotics to discovering profound healing through her heritage and Ayurvedic medicine.

The discussion delves into powerful, natural tools for navigating midlife health. Dr. Gupta shares invaluable insights on adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha for stress resilience and cognitive support, and the critical importance of deep, restorative sleep for clearing inflammation and supporting overall vitality.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com   Are you optimizing your diet and gym time but still feeling wired and foggy? Could the hidden culprit be mental inflammation shortening your health span without you even knowing it?   I talked with Dr. Shivani Gupta about mental inflammation. This stress keeps the nervous system in fight or flight. It ruins digestion, sleep, and clarity. We discussed her book, The Inflammation Code. She explains how Ayurvedic medicine offers solutions through rituals and breath work. We cover elemental design and the body types: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Dr. Gupta shares why news and social media inflame the mind. She provides tools like tea time and decompression points to build resilience. We explore the power of spices like turmeric for healing. Her approach focuses on physiology to change how the body manages stress and productivity for longevity.   Key Takeaways Mental inflammation is chronic emotional stress that creates low-grade inflammation and depletes your vitality, or OJUS. Self-care rituals like setting daily intentions and practicing breath work create a reservoir of peace. "Tea time is me time" acts as a physical trigger to shift the body into the parasympathetic nervous system for rest and digestion. Aligning with your circadian rhythm is essential; sleeping from 10 PM to 2 AM is the most important window for clearing inflammation. Elemental design identifies your specific body template (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) to inform how you should manage your diet and energy. Consuming news and social media triggers a fear-based fight or flight state, contributing significantly to mental inflammation. For therapeutic benefits, use high volumes of spices (teaspoons, not sprinkles) like turmeric, ginger, and cumin in your cooking. When feeling sick, use the Kitchari protocol—a simple porridge that allows the gut to rest so the body can focus on healing.   Resources Dr. Shivani Gupta's Book: The Inflammation Code https://www.theinflammationcode.com/   Elemental Design Quiz: https://shivanigreenliving.clickfunnels.com/quiz   Dr. Shivani Gupta's Website: https://shivanigupta.com   Fusionary Formulas Website: https://fusionaryformulas.com Use the code GETLEANER for 15% Off   Nate Palmer: The founder of The Million Dollar Body and author of "The Million Dollar Body Method", Nate has been coaching for over 15 years and has worked personally with over 1,000 clients.

What if the real reason your inflammation, stubborn weight gain, burnout, and joint pain are not going away has nothing to do with aging or willpower, but with a biological code your body is trying to communicate? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi welcomes back Dr. Shivani Gupta for a powerful conversation on inflammation, Ayurveda, and why modern life quietly keeps the body stuck in a chronic inflammatory state. Dr. Shivani explains why inflammation is not just a symptom, but a biological alarm that signals misalignment with nature, circadian rhythm, lifestyle, and mental stress. They break down the difference between acute and chronic inflammation, why chronic low-grade inflammation blocks fat loss, disrupts hormones, impairs digestion, and accelerates fatigue, and how ancient Ayurvedic principles offer simple, effective solutions that still apply today. You will learn how daily rhythm, nature exposure, circadian alignment, and anti-inflammatory spices can begin shifting inflammation in as little as 24 hours, without extreme diets, deprivation, or medication. The conversation also dives deep into mental and emotional inflammation, how stress chemistry impacts the body at a cellular level, and why healing requires addressing environment, mindset, and lifestyle together. If you have been doing everything right but still feel inflamed, bloated, or exhausted, this episode offers a clear reframe and practical tools you can start using immediately. Key Topics Covered Why inflammation is a biological code, not just a symptom The difference between acute inflammation and chronic low-grade inflammation How inflammation blocks fat loss, metabolism, hormones, and digestion Environmental toxins, diet, and mental stress as the three major inflammation buckets Why modern life creates constant inflammatory pressure on the body Circadian rhythm, nature exposure, and daily rhythm as healing tools Mental and emotional inflammation and how stress chemistry fuels disease Ayurvedic super spices as a cellular pharmacy Why most turmeric supplements fail and how absorption actually works Curcumin's role in insulin resistance, metabolic health, and longevity Ginger, cardamom, fennel, and other spices for digestion and metabolism Practical morning, daytime, and nighttime routines to reduce inflammation Ayurvedic food combining principles and digestion timing How gratitude, mindset, and nature exposure shift inflammation at a cellular level Coupon and Discount To explore Dr. Shivani Gupta's supplements, visit: Link: https://benazadi.com/fusionary Coupon code: FREEDOMDiscount: 15% off Follow Dr. Shivani Gupta

If you're a health-focused entrepreneur who hustles hard but feels inflamed, exhausted, wired-but-tired, or out of rhythm with your body, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta to explore how chronic stress, circadian rhythm disruption, and nervous system overload are quietly driving inflammation, burnout, gut issues, hormone imbalance, and immune dysfunction—especially in high-achieving women. We talk about Ayurveda as a practical, modern lifestyle framework, not a trend, and how understanding your elemental design (dosha) can help you work with your biology instead of constantly fighting it. This episode is a grounding reminder that you can still be ambitious—and healthy—at the same time. What You'll Learn in This Episode 1. Why Stress Creates Inflammation (Even If You Eat "Healthy") Chronic mental and emotional stress keeps the nervous system locked in fight-or-flight, which directly fuels physical inflammation and chronic disease. We talk about why you can't live in hustle mode 24/7 without eventually draining your reserves—and how burnout is often the body's last signal to slow down. 2. Circadian Rhythm and Seasonal Hustle Not every season of life is meant for full throttle. We discuss how circadian rhythm and elemental design teach us when to push—and when to rest—so we don't burn out the very bodies we rely on to build our businesses. 3. Ayurveda 101: Understanding Your Elemental Design Dr. Shivani breaks down the three Ayurvedic constitutions in a modern, relatable way: Vata (air + ether): creative, fast-moving, prone to anxiety, dryness, insomnia Pitta (fire + water): driven, focused, prone to irritability, inflammation, overheating Kapha (earth + water): steady, nurturing, prone to sluggish metabolism, stagnation Knowing your type helps you eat, work, rest, and self-regulate more effectively—especially as an entrepreneur. 4. Food as Grounding, Not Restriction We talk about why: Vata types often need more carbs and healthy fats, not less Pitta types need cooling foods to calm inflammation Kapha types thrive with movement and warm, easy-to-digest meals This conversation reframes food as nourishment and regulation—not control. 5. Perimenopause, Menopause & Hormonal Shifts We dive into how Ayurveda supports women through hormone changes by focusing on: Sleep quality Gut health Stress regulation Circadian rhythm alignment Herbal and lifestyle support Rather than fearing these transitions, we talk about how to move through them with more resilience and self-trust.  

What does it mean to heal when the nervous system no longer feels safe in the body or the world? In this episode, Colette is joined by Sita Severson, Director of the Soul of Yoga Institute in San Diego, Ayurvedic Practitioner, Certified Yoga Therapist, and Vedic counselor. Sita's work lives at the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern trauma science, supporting people through grief, addiction recovery, burnout, and chronic stress with compassion and practicality. Drawing from her own lived experience as well as decades of teaching and clinical work, Sita shares how Ayurveda, yoga, and pranayama can gently support regulation without overwhelming the system and why healing is not about fixing what's broken, but restoring relationship with the body and self. This conversation is especially meaningful for anyone navigating grief, recovery, exhaustion, or a sense of disconnection, and for practitioners interested in trauma-sensitive, embodied approaches to wellbeing. In this episode, you'll hear: How Sita's personal healing journey informs the way she teaches and works with trauma today What it means to rebuild trust in the body when the nervous system has learned that the world isn't safe How chronic stress, grief, and burnout show up in the body's physiology The role of Ayurveda, yoga, and pranayama in gently supporting nervous system regulation What truly defines a trauma-informed yoga practice Why Ayurveda and yoga emphasize gradual, participatory healing rather than quick fixes How healing can open the door to self-actualization, not just symptom relief A simple reflection and practice listeners can explore in their own time Visit the Soul of Yoga website here.

In this episode, we explore postpartum care through the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the deeply nourishing concept known as the “sacred window.” Joining me is Christine Eck, founder and director of the Center for Sacred Window Studies, an educational resource dedicated to Conscious Postpartum Care rooted in Ayurvedic tradition.Christine breaks down what Ayurveda is and how it views the postpartum period as a critical time for healing, restoration, and long-term well-being. We dive into the meaning of the first 42 days postpartum, why this window is considered sacred, and how intentional practices during this time can support a mother's physical recovery, emotional balance, and spiritual integration after birth.We also discuss the essential role of food, rest, daily rhythms, and ritual in postpartum healing, along with practical, accessible ways modern moms can bring Ayurvedic principles into their own recovery—even without formal support or traditional care.

Lets understand what healthy boundaries truly mean, not as rigid walls of protection, but as living, conscious guidelines rooted in self-knowledge. This conversation looks at why boundaries keep shifting, how attachment and detachment coexist, and when boundaries turn self-destructive. We discuss how the body communicates its limits through signals like fatigue, digestion issues, skin breakouts, and even chronic disease and why ignoring these signals comes at a cost. This episode is for anyone who feels “bad at boundaries” and is ready to replace control with clarity, fear with awareness, and resistance with conscious choice.Episode Highlights :Healthy boundaries are not walls or emotional prisonsHow self-knowledge determines the quality of your boundariesRecognizing self-destructive boundaries How your body “keeps the score” Baby Steps for Healthy Boundaries Episode Timestamps: 00:00 - 05:00: What are Healthy Boundaries? 05:00 - 11:00 How do you know your boundaries are healthy? 11:00 - 19:30: Love-Hate Relationships 19:30 - 35:00: Know Body to know your Boundaries 35:00 - 42:30: How to address pent up feelings42:30 - 46:00: Self-love in the purest form Guest Profile: Ananta Ripa Ajmera is a spiritual teacher and 10-time award-winning, 2-time bestselling author of The Way of the Goddess and The Ayurveda Way.

Inflammation is one of the most common words I hear from clients, yet so few people truly understand what it means or how it shows up in the body. If you have been dealing with joint pain, fatigue, digestive issues, brain fog, or a sense that your body feels constantly dysregulated, this conversation is for you. In today's episode, I sat down with Dr. Shivani Gupta to explore inflammation through the lens of Ayurveda and modern science. We talk about how chronic inflammation develops, why digestion and daily rhythm matter so much, and how understanding your unique constitution can change the way you care for your body. We also dive into simple, grounding rituals like tea time, movement in nature, supporting digestive fire, and the science behind turmeric as a powerful anti-inflammatory when used intentionally. Dr. Shivani Gupta is an Ayurvedic practitioner, PhD researcher, and author of The Inflammation Code, dedicated to helping people heal at the root and reconnect with their body's wisdom. What's Discussed: (02:10) Daily rituals that help the body feel grounded and regulated (08:00) Early signs of inflammation most people overlook (11:20) What chronic inflammation really is and why it becomes the root of disease (14:30) Ayurvedic constitutions and why personalized healing matters (19:00) Life stages, perimenopause, and shifting inflammation patterns (22:40) Turmeric science and why most supplements miss the mark (31:10) Why herbal remedies take time and how to know they are working (41:00) Digestion, digestive fire, and the gut as the center of healing (53:30) Detox, nourishment, and restoring balance in a toxic modern world Thank You to Our Sponsors: Timeline: Supporting your cells is one of the most impactful places to invest in your long-term health.

Today's conversation is a powerful reminder that what we often call cutting-edge technology is, in many ways, a return to deeply rooted truth.I'm honored to welcome Scott Hickle, CEO and co-founder of Throne Science, a revolutionary health-tech company reimagining how we understand digestive health. Alongside John Capodilupo, one of the original founders of WHOOP—Scott brings together deep experience in biometric data, human performance, and preventive health.At first glance, Throne's innovation—a smart toilet that analyzes stool and urine to generate personalized health insights—may sound futuristic. But when we look through the lens of Ayurveda, this technology feels incredibly familiar. In Ayurvedic medicine, stool analysis has always been one of the most important diagnostic tools. Long before lab tests and imaging, practitioners observed the color, consistency, frequency, smell, and ease of elimination to understand digestion, metabolism, nervous system balance, and even emotional health. Ayurveda teaches that when digestion is strong and elimination is clear, vitality—ojas—naturally follows.What Throne Science is doing is translating this ancient, embodied practice into a modern, accessible, and data-driven format—one that empowers individuals to self-observe, self-educate, and reconnect with their bodies in real time.This is especially important in the context of preventive care. Colorectal cancer is now one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, and rates are rising even among younger populations. Digestive dysfunction often whispers long before it screams—but in modern life, we're rarely taught how to listen. Throne offers a way to notice subtle changes early, without fear, shame, or disruption to daily life.From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is deeply aligned with the principle of svastha—being rooted in the self. Health is not something handed to us by a practitioner or a system; it's something we cultivate through awareness. Throne Science puts the keys back in our hands, transforming one of the most overlooked daily rituals into an act of self-inquiry and empowerment.We are living in a really exciting moment—where modern health technology is opening the gateway back to a wisdom system that is over 10,000 years old. Today's conversation is about championing that bridge: how ancient knowledge and advanced technology can work together to help us understand our bodies more deeply, prevent disease more intelligently, and reclaim a sense of agency in our health journeys.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

Digestion and cravings can all start in your nervous system. Food decisions made from a stressed, sympathetic nervous system state will lead you to specific foods for your survival. You then struggle to digest those foods, not because there is something “wrong” with the food or your gut, but because your digestion has shut down to prepare you for battle. You can start to see that every food behavior you have is trying to do something FOR you. Your body needs attunement, compassion, and safety, not ridicule, shame, and judgment. Getting to know how your unique body functions and what it needs and when can be an empowering experience. And, there are many lenses that you can get to know your body through. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Shivani Gupta, Ayurvedic practitioner, inflammation expert, and author, about: Ayurveda in a modern contextFood as nourishmentUnderstanding your individual dietary needs based on your constitution and doshasSeasonal eating and circadian rhythmsGrowing in your awareness of your connection with foodYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-choose-foods-based-on-your-bodys-constitutionChat with you more next week! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Shivani: Website: www.shivanigupta.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.shivanigupta/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.shivanigupta Book: The Inflammation Code: https://amzn.to/4sTPjkpSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.benso...

Ayurvedic practitioner and author Heather Grzych explores why so many people feel stuck asking "What's my purpose in life?" – and why thinking harder rarely brings clarity. Drawing on embodied wisdom, Ayurveda, and cultural storytelling, Heather explains how purpose isn't a mental decision but a bodily signal that emerges when we stop forcing answers. Using contrasting film characters like Billy Elliot and Black Swan, she shows how listening to physical cues like energy, ease, and aliveness leads to meaningful direction, while ignoring the body leads to burnout and confusion. This episode is for anyone questioning their career, identity, or life direction and wondering why what once made sense no longer feels right. 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.

This conversation feels like tea with a wise friend—practical, hopeful, and grounded in ahiṃsā, svādhyāya, and the steady courage of śraddhā.What we coverDebbie's path: yoga since 1994, why it offered something team sports and fitness didn't—time, calm, and coming home to self.Lymphoedema support, plain language: why movement, hydration, skin care, and compression are foundations—and how yoga fits in.Breath changes the body: how diaphragmatic breathing helps down-shift sympathetic overdrive and, anecdotally, can ease night-time swelling enough to return to sleep.Yoga tools that help: slow rhythmic movement, Yoga Nidra for nervous-system recovery, present-moment awareness to interrupt “what-if” spirals.Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD): “open the drains,” then move—pair with water intake and gentle activity.Ayurvedic lifestyle touches: cooling choices when heat aggravates symptoms, morning light, toxin reduction, and a simple habit tracker.Agency and dignity: building a daily routine you'll actually keep—this isn't a quick-fix pill.Practical takeaways (save/print)Three-minute reset: recline, elevate legs, one hand on belly; inhale gently through the nose, exhale a little longer; ~15–20 breaths. Notice if sensation and anxiety both dial down.Daily rhythm idea:Brief self-MLD (as taught by a qualified therapist).10–20 minutes of gentle yoga or a short walk.Hydrate and quick skin-check.Yoga Nidra or guided rest later in the day if swelling or fatigue rises.Get support: work with a qualified lymphoedema therapist for compression, self-care education, and monitoring.How yoga philosophy frames this workAhiṃsā (non-harm): move/rest in ways that protect tissue and reduce irritation.Svādhyāya (self-study): track patterns—sleep, flares, foods, stressors—without judgment.Īśvara-praṇidhāna (surrender): accept today's reality while practicing skillful effort. Together, these form a sustainable sādhana for long-term conditions.Resources mentionedBritish Wheel of Yoga (for teacher standards and CPD)Lymphoedema Support Network (UK)Manual Lymph Drainage (find a qualified therapist)Yoga Nidra recordings for regulation and restWho this episode is forPeople living with primary or secondary lymphoedema; those post-treatment or post-surgery; clinicians curious about integrating breath and gentle movement; yoga therapists seeking condition-specific insights.About our guestDebbie Lamond is a UK-based yoga teacher and yoga therapist focusing on lymphoedema support.

In this episode of the NeuroVeda podcast, we sit down with Sujatha Reddy, LPC, BC-TAM, BAMS, a deeply experienced mental health clinician and Ayurvedic practitioner whose work bridges ancient wisdom and modern therapeutic practice. Sujatha is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and Ohio, a Licensed Natural Medicine Facilitator in Colorado, a Board-Certified Traditional Ayurvedic Medicine practitioner, certified psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist, holosomatic breathwork therapist, and yoga therapist. With over 35 years of Ayurvedic practice in the U.S. and 25 years in the mental health field, she brings a rare depth of perspective to the conversation. She is the founder and executive director of Ayumind LLC and Heartland Wellness PLLC, and also owns a Humanly mental health franchise in Lakewood, Colorado.Together, we explore the Ayurvedic understanding of mental health as a metabolic and systemic process rather than a standalone diagnosis. Sujatha explains the concept of the koshas, the layers of self, and how disconnection across these layers contributes to anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation. She shares how the gunas shape our mental and emotional states, and how practices like breathwork, meditation, mantra, yoga therapy, and personalized Ayurvedic protocols can release stored trauma and restore balance. This episode offers a powerful look at truly integrative mental health care, blending Ayurveda, Western psychology, and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy to address root causes rather than symptoms, while emphasizing the importance of resilience, community, and reconnection to self in healing.TakeawaysAyurveda views mental health as a metabolic disorder.The mind is interconnected with the body and spirit.Understanding the koshas helps in addressing mental health.Disconnection from self leads to anxiety and depression.Breathwork can release trauma stored in the body.The gunas influence our mental and emotional states.Personalized programs are essential for mental health.Holistic approaches integrate body, mind, and spirit.Ayurvedic practices can enhance resilience and well-being.Community and social engagement are vital for mental health.

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.

Vitamin D deficiency is one of the most common yet ignored health issues today, and its impact goes far beyond bones. In this episode, Dr. Vignesh Devaraj explains how low vitamin D affects energy, immunity, bone strength, autoimmune conditions, and mental health.Drawing from both Ayurveda and modern medical science, the episode explores the Ayurvedic concept of Atapa Seva under Shamana Chikitsa, a gentle healing approach used when the body is exhausted and not ready for intensive treatments, and a grounded framework to correct vitamin D deficiency within the body to actually absorb and use it.Episode Highlights: Why sunlight is considered a therapeutic input in Ayurveda How vitamin D regulates immunity, mood, and inflammationThe connection between vitamin D deficiency, depression, and autoimmune flare-upsPractical steps to restore vitamin D naturally and safelyWhy vitamin D must be supported by digestion, routine, liver health, and vitamin K2Timestamps: 00:00 – 01:00: vitamin D deficiency01:00 – 03:30: Atapa Seva and Shamana Chikitsa03:30 – 04:30: Sunlight, circadian rhythm, & mood regulation04:30 – 06:00 Vitamin D's Role in our Body06:00 – 09:30 Practical Ayurvedic + modern framework begins09:30 – 11:00: Alcohol, liver health, cholesterol, and supplements11:00 – 11:07: Closing and consultation detailsInterested in doing an Ayurvedic consultation with Dr Vignesh Devraj?

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!

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. Through stories, clinical insights, and lineage-based knowledge, Dr Raju explains how fear weakens prāṇa, how confidence and understanding support healing, and why Ayurveda prioritises early imbalance long before disease manifests.This episode weaves together classical Ayurvedic philosophy, pulse wisdom, marma science, and lived experience from generations of Vaidyas, offering a rare glimpse into healing that begins within.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:
