Ayurveda teaches that the heart (Hridaya) is not just a physical pump for blood, it is central to our physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. Together, we explore how chronic stress, unresolved grief, and emotional trauma can affect both the heart and mind, and how Ayurvedic wisdom can guide us toward healing from the inside out. We also dive deep into the subdoshas, exploring the subtle energies of Prana Vayu, Sadhaka Pitta, and Tarpaka Kapha, that regulate how we "digest life" and how they link the gut, heart, and mind. In this episode, we cover: Dr. Sujatha's perspective of the Hridya (heart) beyond its mechanical function How the gut–heart–mind connection operates through the subtle doshas and channels (srotas) The impact of chronic stress, grief, and trauma on Prana Vayu, Sadhaka Pitta, and Tarpaka Kapha Early signs that your heart–mind connection is under strain Dr. Sujatha's favourite Ayurvedic approaches for healing the heart through diet, herbs, therapies, and lifestyle Resources & Links: Learn more about Dr. Sujatha and her offerings: AmrtaSiddhi Ayurvedic Clinic Episode 411 - The Gut–Emotion connection Episode 274 - Prana Vaha Srotas Episode 302 - Ayurvedic Herbs for the Mind & Nervous System Episode 103 - Subdoshas of Vata Episode 105 - Subdoshas of Pitta Episode 107 - Subdoshas of Kapha * Visit Colette's website www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com Online consultations & Gift Vouchers Private at-home Digestive Reset Cleanse tailored to you Educational programs - Daily Habits for Holistic Health Reset-Restore-Renew Program Have questions before you book?

Life can often feel unpredictable, whether from work pressures, social shifts, or simply the pace of the world. Ayurveda reminds us that stability isn't found in controlling the external world, but in cultivating steady rhythms and anchor habits within ourselves. In this episode, Colette explores how small, consistent daily habits can serve as anchors for your body, mind, and spirit. You'll learn why Ayurveda places such importance on daily self-care practices (dinacharya), how different doshas benefit from specific anchors, and how these tiny, steady routines ripple out to support digestion, sleep, energy, emotional balance, and longevity. Whether you're new to Ayurveda or looking to deepen your self-care practices, this episode will inspire you to choose just one simple anchor habit to bring more calm, clarity, and resilience into your life. What you'll learn in this episode: Why uncertainty often triggers “all-or-nothing” thinking and how anchor habits provide steadiness. Simple daily habit swaps to create calm energy, mental focus, and restful sleep. The Ayurvedic concept of dinacharya (daily routines) as a foundation for health. Dosha-specific anchors: grounding for Vata, cooling for Pitta, energizing for Kapha. How small, consistent habits ripple out to support nervous system resilience and longevity. Why anchoring your body naturally steadies your mind and spirit.

In Ayurveda, digestion is never just about food, it's about how we process life itself. When our digestion is weak, the body feels heavy, the mind becomes clouded, and both physical toxins (ama) and mental toxins (mental ama) begin to accumulate. In this episode, Colette explores how poor digestion affects not only our physical health but also our emotional wellbeing, clarity, and self-confidence. You'll learn how the gut-mind connection works in Ayurveda, why unprocessed emotions weigh just as heavily as undigested food, and what practices help restore balance. We'll also look at how an Ayurvedic reset, including diet, awareness, and daily routine can help clear both physical and emotional heaviness, bringing you back to lightness, calm, and clarity. What you'll learn in this episode: How Ayurveda explains the gut-mind connection through the mano vaha srotas (the channel of the mind). The role of the subdoshas, Sadhaka Pitta, Prana Vayu, and Tarpaka Kapha in processing emotions and experiences. What mental ama is and how it impacts mood, memory, and self-confidence. The emotional imprint of poor digestion, why heaviness, irritability, or brain fog often follow sluggish digestion. How sattvic foods and routines promote clarity of mind while rajasic and tamasic influences create imbalance. Practical Ayurvedic guidelines for preventing the build-up of mental ama, from mindful eating and circadian rhythm to tuning inward and protecting your senses.

Divya Johnson moved from India with her family when she was 13 years old and in 8th grade. This fragile time in an adolescent's life can be challenging for anyone, even without having the reality of living in a new country and learning a new culture. She shares details like going from an all-girls private school to co-ed public school in a new country posed new life lessons to navigate. Although her new school in the U.S. was diverse, there was only one other S. Asian student who really couldn't be bothered with supporting her so she turned inward to embrace resilience and coping mechanisms on her own. Driven by self motivation and high expectations from her parents, she persisted in her academics despite some bumps along the way. She shares deep thoughts about being a single mother while paving the way to more acceptance and understanding that divorce can happen regardless of the cultural and family expectations that occur with an arranged marriage. She explains the stigma of divorce in India and the fear of disappointing family, but with perseverance she has opened the conversation and helped others see a new light on what has widely been frowned upon. She shares deep thoughts about raising 2 girls and co-parenting, while challenging the norms about mental health. Her faith and persistence are at the core of her personal growth and parenting style.

We often blame our DNA for autoimmune disease and chronic illness. But what if the real inheritance isn't genetic at all? What if it's the food on the table, the unspoken stress, the toxins in our homes, and the patterns no one questions? In this episode of Medical Disruptors, Dr. E talks with Divya Gupta, a former Silicon Valley consultant who left the career everyone admired to reclaim her health. From gallbladder surgery at 20 to a Hashimoto's diagnosis at 25, Divya reveals how years of dismissed symptoms taught her the most dangerous form of gaslighting is when you start doubting yourself. She shares why gallbladders aren't disposable, how the thyroid and liver are deeply connected, and why bile may be the most overlooked part of your health. Together we explore the invisible inheritance families pass down—habits, foods, and beliefs that shape health outcomes for generations. This conversation challenges the myth that your destiny is written in your DNA. It's about reclaiming your voice, trusting your body, and breaking cycles that no longer serve you.

Have you ever noticed cravings sneak up when you're stressed, tired, or at the change of a season? Ayurveda teaches us that cravings aren't about willpower, they're messages from the body, pointing to imbalance.

When most of us think about improving digestion, we focus on food choices, what to eat and what to avoid. But Ayurveda teaches us that how and when we eat, along with our daily lifestyle habits, are just as important for keeping agni (digestive fire) strong and preventing ama (toxins). In this episode, Colette explores five often-overlooked habits that quietly weaken digestion over time and shares simple Ayurvedic fixes to reset them. These shifts may seem small, but they can have a profound effect on energy, immunity, and overall wellbeing. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why agni thrives on rhythm and how irregular eating times throw digestion off track How emotional stress diverts energy away from healthy digestion The hidden impact of late-night screen use on your body's natural repair cycles Why even “healthy” foods can cause ama when combined improperly How eating out of sync with the seasons creates imbalance and what to do instead You'll also hear practical, before-and-after lifestyle examples to help you notice where these patterns might be showing up in your own life. * If you're ready for deeper support and motivated to do an all-in-one reset, then come join the discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse starting October 3rd, which addresses all five of these areas at once. This guided group cleanse includes a 90-minute online consultation so I can tailor the program to your unique needs and lifestyle.

In this episode, Divya speaks with Sean Fox and Gregory Randolph about urbanization and how it is unfolding amid global shocks and affecting inequality. Sean Fox is a Professor of Geography and Global Development at the University of Bristol. His research focuses on the causes and consequences of global urbanization, the political economy of urban governance, and sustainable city futures. Gregory Randolph is an Assistant Professor in the School of City and Regional Planning at Georgia Tech. His work focuses on how local economies and urbanization patterns are being reshaped by 21st-century transitions namely technological, energy and demographic transitions, with a particular focus on inequality. Together, Sean and Gregory offer rich interdisciplinary insights that challenge conventional understandings of urbanization, showing that urbanization is not just about the growth of cities or a straightforward shift from rural to urban. Rather, it's a geo-demographic transformation that is deeply embedded in political, social, and economic processes. The conversation also sheds light on the hidden stories of urbanization in the global south for example, the stories of migration in the indian state of Bihar where Gregory has been working, deindustrialization, regional divergence, and the hollowing out of labor markets and how these processes contribute to interpersonal and inter-place inequalities. This episode was recorded at a time when massive wildfires in Los Angeles were making headlines everywhere, prompting a timely question for our guests: What should planners be thinking about as they rebuild cities after disasters? Both Sean and Gregory voiced serious concern about the increasing frequency and scale of natural disasters and how such events are amplifying pre-existing inequalities. They emphasized that recovery and rebuilding cannot be the task of planners alone. It must also be a political project—one that demands bold, inclusive, and forward-thinking political leadership committed to building cities that account for vulnerability, address structural inequalities, and prioritize resilience for all. Sean and Gregory are both compelling storytellers, and their work offers a grounded and timely lens on how urbanization is evolving in a world marked by rising uncertainties and deepening inequalities, and I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to engage with them and their brilliant & relevant scholarship   References:  Fox, S., & Goodfellow, T.

British Sikh engineer, Navjot Sawhney gave up his lucrative career to go and work in India, to use his skills to help solve problems for rural communities. While there, he became fascinated with the problems his neighbour, Divya, was facing while handwashing clothes, sometimes for up to three hours a day.Broadcaster and journalist Nkem Ifejika finds out how Nav promised to design a hand crank, off-grid washing machine for his neighbour, to help her avoid the sore joints, aching limbs, and irritated skin she got from her daily wash. Within two years of coming up with the idea, Nav had set up his own company, The Washing Machine Project, and trialled his first machine in a refugee camp in Iraq. From that first trip, over five years ago, the project has now provided nearly a thousand machines, free to the users in poorer communities and refugee camps, in eleven countries around the world. Nkem hears how seven years on, Nav fulfilled his promise to return to India with a machine for his neighbour, Divya. The Washing Machine Project is now partnered with the Whirlpool Foundation, the social corporate responsibility arm of the company that designed the first electric domestic machine over a hundred years ago, and together they hope to impact 150,000 people.Nkem asks if a project like this can really make a difference, given that roughly five billion people still wash their clothes by hand.Producer: Alex Strangwayes-Booth A CTVC productionImage: Navjot Sawhney sitting between two hand crank, off grid washing machines.

The Elements of Ayurveda Podcast turns 8 this month and in this special anniversary episode, I'm reflecting on 8 years of sharing Ayurvedic wisdom through this podcast, in my personal practice, and in client work. Over this time, Ayurveda has taught me countless lessons, but there are 8 core insights that continue to shape how I live, heal, and show up in the world. May they inspire your own journey with Ayurveda and remind you of the deep wisdom already within you. The 8 lessons are: The body is always communicating There is no one-size-fits-all path to health Digestion is the root of It all Rhythm and routine are more powerful than perfection Emotions are energy that need digestion too Healing is seasonal, cyclical, and spiral-like You are nature, not separate from it True health is alignment with purpose * Visit Colette's website www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com  Online consultations & Gift Vouchers Next discounted Group Cleanse starts October 3rd, 2025 Private at-home Digestive Reset Cleanse tailored to you Educational programs - Daily Habits for Holistic Health Have questions before you book? Book a FREE 15 min online Services Enquiry Call * Join the Elements of Ayurveda Community! * Stay connected on the Elements Instagram and Facebook pages. * Enjoy discounts on your favourite Ayurvedic products: Banyan Botanicals - enter discount code EOA15 at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.** Divya's  - enter discount code ELEMENTSOFAYURVEDA15 at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.** Kerala Ayurveda - enter discount code ELEMENTS15 to receive 15% off your first purchase.** LifeSpa - Save $10 on a $50 or more one-time purchase with the code elements10.  **Shipping available within the U.S. only. * Thanks for listening!

It was a final like no other — two Indian women, face to face, with a world title on the line. On one side of the board sat Koneru Humpy, one of the greats of the game. On the other, 19-year-old Divya Deshmukh, fearless and sharp. The Women's Chess World Cup in Georgia had come down to a tense tiebreak. And in that pressure-cooked moment, it was Divya who found the winning move. The title was hers. It was a moment of triumph and a sign of change. This was the first-ever all-Indian final at the women's chess World Cup. Once unthinkable, now very real. For years, China set the pace in women's chess, just as the Soviets once ruled the men's game. But the old power structures are shifting. Indian men have already broken into the elite. And now, the women are rewriting the script.

Donald Trump has announced 25% tariffs on Indian exports starting August 1, penalising India for continuing Russian energy and arms imports. The tariff puts India behind peers like Vietnam and Japan, sparking concerns over Apple's India strategy, foreign factory investments, and a potential $30 billion economic hit. Moneycontrol investigates the fallout and other implications from 5 angles. For these and more news tune in to this edition of Moneycontro Editor's Picks.

In this episode, Divya speaks with Saad Gulzar, Associate Professor of Political Science and Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame. At the time of recording of this episode, he was at Princeton University and has since moved to Notre Dame. Gulzar's research focuses on the politics of development in South Asia and centers on a critical question: How can governments deliver better outcomes for their citizens? His work combines randomized control trials, administrative data, and in-depth qualitative insights to examine how political representation and bureaucracies can become more responsive. The conversation explores Gulzar's research on the relationship between politicians and bureaucrats, and the conditions under which their collaboration leads to more effective governance. Gulzar's findings highlight how the everyday decisions and motivations of these key actors shape the design and delivery of public policy. By uncovering these dynamics, his work offers valuable insights into how governments can better align expectations and improve the delivery of services in people's daily lives.

In this episode, Divya speaks with Scott Hardy. Scott is an Extension Educator with the Ohio Sea Grant College Program, where he leads research and runs education and outreach programs on watershed restoration, coastal zone management, and stormwater runoff. He is also an Adjunct Associate Professor of Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences at Case Western Reserve University, where he works on several research projects. Scott's work is all about collaboration — bringing people together to solve problems that no one can tackle alone. He knows that collaboration isn't automatic. It takes time, trust, and spaces where people feel heard and included. He also believes that every place is different, and you need to really understand the local context to make teamwork work. Different projects need different kinds of partnerships, and Scott is skilled at figuring out what each situation needs. In this episode, they talk about Scott's ongoing work on Cuyahoga River restoration, where he has been closely collaborating with a wide range of stakeholders ranging from state agencies to industry to local communities. They also talk about his recent experience as a Fulbright Specialist at the Universidad de Atacama in Copiapó, Chile, where he was invited to share his expertise on sustainable water management.  References:  Hardy, S.

Colette explores how summer, a season of heat, light, and intensity can support sadhana, your conscious spiritual practice. Sadhana refers to any intentional, disciplined effort we make to align with our higher Self, whether that's through meditation, mantra, prayer, mindful movement, self-inquiry, or acts of devotion. She explains how we can harness our inner fire (tapas) and creative light (tejas) to align more deeply with purpose. It's an opportunity to live in alignment with our unique path (dharma). Colette covers the following: Avoiding summer stress and burnout. Understanding tapas - the sacred inner fire. Summer as a season for sadhana. Tejas - the light of creative insight.

This isn't the first time we've talked about LinkedIn. But in this episode, we cover specific recommendations for the content you should create and post as well as a proven process for connecting with clients. My guest is content writer Divya Agrawal and what she shared could change your approach to LinkedIn for the better. Click the play button below, or scroll down for a full transcript.   Stuff to check out: The Copywriter Club Facebook Group The Copywriter Underground The How to Write Emotional Copy Masterclass   Full Transcript: Rob Marsh: If you've got enough clients or you're not willing to put yourself out there to find the clients you need, well, you can probably skip this episode. This is The Copywriter Club Podcast. Like last week, we're revisiting a recurring topic on the show this week, but unlike last week, the recurring topics isn't persuasion or psychology. This week we're talking about the biggest challenge facing almost all copywriters and that's finding clients. Even established copywriters will struggle with this from time to time. One of the trusims of business is that if you don't have clients willing to pay you for the work you do, it doesn't matter how good your website is, it doesn't matter how good a writer you are, it doesn't matter that you can solve your client's problems better than anyone else… without the client, you don't have a business. My guest this week is Divya Agrawal, a SaaS and Tech copywriter who has deep experience finding clients on LinkedIn.  Divya started her career as a programmer but quickly figured out she was on the wrong job track, so she switched to writing. The lessons she shares from her experience launching this new business will help any copywriter or content writer who is looking for clients to work with. Specifically, Divya used LinkedIn to create connections with prospects. Her success posting content and making comments on other posts is a model for other writers who want to do the same… and LinkedIn is where a significant number of the people who hire copywriters hangout and connect. If your clients are there, you need to be there too. In this interview, Divya shares the questions she uses to vet her prospects before they become clients, and she outlines exactly how you can connect with clients on LinkedIn yourself. This is informaiton she charges her coaching clients for, but she's sharing much of it today for free. Before we jump into our interview, a little while ago I recorded a masterclass to show copywriters, content writers and other marketers how to write “emotional” copy. Everyone says emotions sell, but how do you actually write emotional copy? I walk through more than a dozen examples in this masterclass and give you a proven process for figuring out the right emotions to focus on as you write… and how they change as you make your pitch. The masterclass includes several bonuses on storytelling, using A.I. to find dominant and transformational emotions, and much more. You can get this masterclass at thecopywriterclub.com/emotion And now, my interview with Divya Agrawal. Divya, welcome to the podcast. I'm excited to hear your story and to talk about how you're finding clients, but tell us, how did you become a freelance copywriter for Tech. Divya Agrawal: Thank you so much for having me on the podcast, Rob, I highly appreciate this chance to talk to you. I have been a big fan of your podcast, so it's really cool that I get to sit here and share what I know. Yeah, I became a freelance tech writer back in 2017 end of 2017 after a year long stint at a IT company as a software engineer, I was a Salesforce developer for a year, and that didn't work out. I did not like the corporate environment. I did not like the work I was doing. So then I was like, I need to do something else. I had always been a writer. So I was one of those kids in school who is asked to write other kids speeches.
