Podcasts about Ayurveda

Have you ever decided that you need to make a change and then wanted to change everything at once? Maybe you decide you're going to eat better, exercise more, get to bed earlier, drink less alcohol, meditate every day or finally get yourself organised. We can become so focused on the result that we overlook the process of getting there. In Ayurveda, sustainable change isn't about forcing the body into a completely different way of being. It's about understanding where we are, listening to the body and creating the conditions that allow change to happen. In this episode, we explore why preparation is such an important part of an Ayurvedic reset and why this principle extends far beyond cleansing. Whether you're changing your eating habits, sleep, exercise, workload, relationship with technology or something more personal, the way you approach change can influence how sustainable it becomes. In this episode, we explore: Why we're often drawn to dramatic transformation and immediate results The difference between forcing change and supporting change Why sustainable change requires the body and mind to adapt How Prakriti and Vikriti help us understand our individual needs The role of Agni in preparing the body for change How reducing excess stimulation can create more space for the body and nervous system Preparing the mind and moving away from perfectionism, punishment and rigid rules Approaching a reset with curiosity rather than focusing solely on results How self-awareness can gradually develop into self-trust Creating an environment that makes sustainable change more realistic Why a health plan needs room for observation and adjustment Learning to listen to what your body is telling you rather than simply following the rules Join the Autumn Digestive Reset Cleanse If you're ready to support your body through this seasonal transition, my Discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse begins October 9th.

What if the business you are building is one your body cannot actually survive? This week on the Glow Up, Gyrl Podcast, Kyra sits down with Arjita Sethi, serial entrepreneur, physical therapist, certified yoga teacher, and Ayurveda practitioner working at the intersection of AI and wellbeing. She founded Shaanti, an AI-powered wellness platform now ranked fourth in AI wellness in the US, along with New Founders School and Build With AI Club. She sits on the advisory board of the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center and teaches entrepreneurship at San Francisco State. She started her first company at 16 in India, a vocational school that reached 100,000 people. Then came a venture-backed AI company in San Francisco, twenty-hour days, and by 2019, burnout so complete she says there was not a functional bone left in her body. COVID shut everything down, and she and her husband moved to three acres surrounded by redwoods in Northern California. They stayed two and a half years, and it changed what success meant to her. In this episode: Why AI is your first hire, not a magic trick What most people get wrong about training it, and why every input has a memory Whether using AI is cheating, and why your input is the part nobody can copy How burnout became a badge of honor, and what she saw in Silicon Valley that normalized it The forced pause in the redwoods that rebuilt her definition of success How AI made a six-month paid maternity leave possible, in a year that outperformed the one before What Ayurveda actually is, and why the same advice does not work for everyone Vata, pitta, and kapha, and why your body already knows what it needs The nervous system as a founder's real operating system, with Jensen Huang as the example The free thing she recommends over every product: sleep, water, and breath Her three takeaways, including the question she thinks everyone should be asking Whether you are running on empty and calling it ambition, curious about AI but sure you are behind, or quietly wondering whether the version of success you are chasing is even yours, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck sits down with Lauren Felts, founder and CEO of Birthing Mothers, to talk about her journey into postpartum care and the vision that grew from her work with mothers and families.Lauren shares how her background in nutrition and her training in Ayurvedic postpartum care shaped the way she understands nourishment, healing, and the postpartum window. Through her work as a postpartum doula, she began to see the many questions and needs that families experience in the spaces between appointments and visits.That experience inspired her to create Birthing Mothers, a space where mothers can find grounded information, connection, and support while also bringing together practitioners from different areas of care.Christine and Lauren explore the importance of integrating evidence-based medicine with traditional and holistic wisdom, supporting postpartum partners, and creating community among the practitioners who care for families.They also talk about something equally important: who is caring for the caregivers?As Lauren's vision has expanded, so has her understanding that supporting mothers means looking at the whole system around them. Mothers, partners, practitioners, families, and communities are all interconnected.At the heart of this conversation is a simple but powerful reminder: we were never meant to do this alone.In this episode:• Lauren's journey into Ayurvedic postpartum care• The inspiration behind Birthing Mothers• Supporting mothers between appointments and visits• Bringing different approaches to care together• The role of partners in the postpartum experience• Supporting and nourishing practitioners• Building stronger networks of community care• Reimagining the village around motherhoodAbout Lauren:Lauren Felts is a Certified Nutritionist, Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula, and the Founder & CEO of Birthing Mothers, a practitioner-led maternal wellness platform supporting women from preconception through pregnancy and postpartum.With nearly two decades in the health and wellness space, Lauren's work is rooted in the belief that trulycaring for women requires looking beyond physical health alone. Birthing Mothers brings together evidence-based Western medicine with nutrition, Ayurveda, movement, meditation, breathwork, mental health support, and other integrative practices—giving women trusted education, practical tools, community, and access to experienced maternal-health practitioners in one supportive space.Born from Lauren's own experience of pregnancy and motherhood, Birthing Mothers is working to create a more connected and human approach to maternal care—one that supports the body, mind, and heart while helping women build greater self-trust throughout the transition into motherhood.Lauren is also passionate about building a connected network of maternal-health professionals and creating meaningful collaboration across disciplines. Birthing Mothers is currently welcoming new practitioner partnerships with aligned providers and organizations interested in education, referrals, events, community, and expanding integrative support for women and families.Links:Learn more: www.wearebirthingmothers.comPractitioner Partnerships: https://www.wearebirthingmothers.com/practitioners-https://sacredwindowstudies.com/free-cookbook/-Are you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out! ⁠Schedule a time with Christine⁠ to find out how this work can transform your care business or provide a meaningful career path.Here is the ⁠link⁠ to our free class@‌sacredwindowstudiesJoin our ⁠Facebook Group⁠Podcast Music is Composed by Sara Emmitt, graduate of the Center for Sacred Window Studies.

About this episode: In this episode of the Wellness Pro Hotline, Cate Stillman sits down with Amy Glasser, founder of The Vital Well — an Ayurveda-based membership community for women seeking deeper vitality, hormonal balance, and long-term health. Amy has already done the foundational work: she has built her club, set up her classroom, refined her Vitality Checkup sessions, and established her sales cycle. Now the question is simple — how does she fill her pipeline consistently and convert cold leads into committed members? What unfolds is a practical, laser-focused coaching session on one of the most underutilized lead generation strategies in the wellness industry: showing up in person at farmers markets, festivals, and community fairs to offer free Vitality Checkups. Cate walks Amy through the entire three-session funnel, from the initial pulse check at the table, through the assessment review on Zoom, to the Sacred Sales pitch that closes the client into a year-long club commitment. This episode also covers how to handle time blocking as a single parent, when to offer certificates of completion and continuing education credits, how to create FOMO using a monthly club calendar, and why the closing call is simply about getting someone to defend their desire and commit to their health. This is the Wellness Pro Hotline: real practitioners, real challenges, real coaching — on the record. Key Takeaways: The Three-Session Farmer's Market Funnel: How to move a cold lead from a free vitality checkup at a community table to a closed year-long club member across three intentional touchpoints Discover, Desire, Defend: Why the Sacred Sales framework is the difference between a presentation that informs and a conversation that converts Certificates of Completion and CEUs: How to add perceived and real value to your club by offering completion certificates and continuing education credits without overcomplicating the process Time Blocking for Leads and Sales: How to structure your week so lead outreach, sales calls, and closing calls each have their own designated time — even around childcare and a split-location lifestyle Creating FOMO With a Monthly Calendar: Why showing prospects exactly what is happening inside the club this month is one of the most effective closing tools available One Claude Prompt Away: How Amy is already using AI to support session notes, client plans, and content creation — and how to go further Resources and Links: Fix Your Offer Session: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/bookings/fix-your-offer-session Wellness Pro Academy: https://wellnesspro.academy Yogahealer: https://www.yogahealer.com About the Guest, Amy Glasser: Amy Glasser is the founder of The Vital Well, an Ayurveda-informed membership community helping women reclaim their vitality, balance their hormones, and build sustainable long-term health.

Seguramente te has encontrado en esta situación más de una vez: llegas a casa tras un día agotador de trabajo, sientes el cuerpo pesado, la mente fatigada y, de forma casi automática, tus pasos te llevan directo a la cocina. Abres la nevera o la despensa y buscas desesperadamente una galleta, un trozo de chocolate o algo de bollería. Antes de culpar a tu falta de voluntad, es fundamental comprender qué ocurre realmente en tu organismo.No se trata de un autosabotaje ni de un simple antojo caprichoso. Cuando atravesamos jornadas intensas de sobrecarga mental o laboral, nuestro cerebro consume una cantidad enorme de energía. Al finalizar el día, el cuerpo fisiológicamente nos pide recuperar lo gastado y exige una recarga rápida. El azúcar actúa como el combustible de respuesta inmediata más accesible. Sin embargo, los productos ultraprocesados generan un pico glucémico tan acelerado como su posterior caída, dejándonos de nuevo sin energía al poco tiempo.El papel de los sabores según el AyurvedaPara entender el valor de lo que ingerimos, conviene recurrir a la medicina milenaria india, el Ayurveda. Según esta tradición, existen seis sabores esenciales y cada uno cumple una función específica sobre la salud física, mental y emocional. Lejos de ser el "enemigo" de la nutrición, el sabor dulce posee propiedades fundamentales: es hidratante, suavizante, aporta estabilidad, nutre y tonifica los tejidos.Cuando el estrés o el cansancio se apoderan de nosotros, experimentamos una sensación de inestabilidad y sequedad interna. El sabor dulce actúa equilibrando precisamente esa fatiga. Por lo tanto, el problema no reside en la necesidad biológica de consumir este sabor, sino en la elección del alimento con el que decidimos cubrirla.Alternativas saludables para saciar el hambre dulceLa industria alimentaria nos ha condicionado a asociar el confort dulce con refrescos, chocolates cargados de azúcares refinados y bollería. No obstante, la naturaleza ofrece una amplia variedad de alimentos integrales que proporcionan ese mismo sabor de forma gradual, garantizando energía sostenida a largo plazo sin altibajos fisiológicos.

Es geht um 5 Mythen über die ich zum Großteil noch nicht geredet habe. Ich möchte aufräumen mit festgefahrenen Ansichten über das ayurvedische entgiften und dir zeigen, wie viele Möglichkeiten es gibt, Dinge anders zu sehen und vor allem in dich rein zu spüren.

En muchas ocasiones sentimos el impulso irrefrenable de comer algo a pesar de haber terminado de almorzar o cenar hace poco. Ante esta sensación, la reacción habitual es pensar que el estómago necesita alimento. Sin embargo, la física o la biología no siempre son las responsables de este impulso; muy a menudo se trata del hambre de los sentidos.Desde la perspectiva de la medicina tradicional Ayurveda, los sentidos constituyen la vía principal a través de la cual nos relacionamos con el entorno e interpretamos el mundo. La búsqueda de placer es una necesidad biológica y emocional completamente natural. El problema surge cuando confundimos esa búsqueda de estímulo sensorial con la necesidad de comer, utilizando la comida como el único recurso para satisfacer la mente.Cada uno de nuestros sentidos puede desencadenar una respuesta automática hacia la comida sin que exista una necesidad nutricional real:La vista: Es el primer sentido que se activa. Ver el anuncio de una pizza en la televisión o contemplar el escaparate de una pastelería genera una señal cerebral inmediata que despierta el deseo de comer.El olfato: Los aromas viajan directamente a zonas profundas del cerebro, conectando con recuerdos y emociones del pasado. El olor a pan recién horneado o a un guiso tradicional puede evocar la infancia y generar ganas de comer por nostalgia o confort.El oído: Sonidos tan cotidianos como el crujido de unas patatas fritas o el chisporroteo de los alimentos en la sartén estimulan la atención y abren el apetito de forma repentina.Aprender a identificar cuál de estos estímulos ha encendido la chispa del antojo es el primer paso para no reaccionar en piloto automático.

What if living longer and better has less to do with extreme diets and biohacks, and more to do with a few simple habits you already know you should be doing?In this episode of Owning Your Legacy, host Laurette Rondenet sits down with Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh, MD, a physician, Ayurvedic expert, and author of The Longevity Formula and The Health Catalyst. During her emergency medicine training, Dr. Avanti was 20 pounds overweight, battling headaches and stomach problems, and every lab came back "normal." She went back to the Ayurvedic lifestyle she grew up with, one small change at a time, and has spent the past 20 years bringing 5,000 years of Ayurvedic wisdom together with Western medicine.Dr. Avanti makes the case that longevity is really about healthspan: reaching 95 or 100 while you are still active, sharp, independent, and connected to the people and work that matter to you. And she shows how to get there without overhauling your life.Inside the conversation:• Healthspan vs. lifespan: why the anti-aging conversation misses the point• The 12-12-12 framework: 12 minutes of morning sunlight, a 12-hour overnight fast, and 12 minutes of daily stress reduction• Why women's sweet spot for fasting is 12 to 14 hours, and how longer fasts can stress hormones• Rest is not sleep: micro-breaks, breathwork, and why stress management is inflammation management• Doshas at work and at home: using Vata, Pitta, and Kapha to understand your team, your partner, and yourself• Grounding, prana, and why a walk among trees feels so restorative• Her breast cancer journey, why she calls Ayurveda "protective, not just preventative," and learning to receive loveBooks & resources mentioned:• The Longevity Formula by Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh• The Health Catalyst by Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh• Dosha assessment and weekly articles: The Weekly Health Rx on Substack (avantikumarsingh.substack.com)• The Healing Catalyst PodcastConnect with Dr. Avanti at avantikumarsingh.com, on Instagram (@avantikumarsingh), and on LinkedIn.

In this September 23rd webinar, Tom focuses the full session on “everything we need to know about measles.” He explains that his goal is to create a clear reference people can share with doctors, reporters, health freedom advocates, virologists, or anyone asking what we know about measles.He organizes the discussion around five main questions:-Is measles a specific biological entity? -Is measles transmissible, i.e., contagious? -Does the virus exist? -Has it ever been isolated? -Did vaccines actually get rid of this disease called measles?Highlights from this session include: -Tom examines whether measles can be accurately diagnosed by signs and symptoms alone, comparing this to other diagnoses such as pregnancy or fractures. -He discusses different approaches to diagnosis in Western medicine, Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, and homeopathy. -He reviews the question of whether symptoms such as fever, rash, Koplik spots, nausea, anxiety, or back pain can specifically identify measles. -He looks at CDC and AI-based responses stating that laboratory confirmation is considered essential because clinical diagnosis alone is not reliable. -He argues that if measles could not be reliably diagnosed before modern molecular tests, then historical measles statistics become difficult to interpret. -He examines whether measles has been proven to be transmissible or contagious, including historical claims involving Francis Home's blood-transfer experiment. -He discusses why injecting blood from one person into another does not prove a virus or contagious agent was transmitted. -He reviews the 1954 Enders paper and argues that the cell-culture method used to claim measles virus isolation was not valid proof of isolation. -He discusses Stefan Lanka's related control work and the claim that cytopathic effects can occur without any measles sample present. -He questions antibody, antigen, and PCR-based tests on the basis that they depend on prior isolation of the virus. -He addresses the claim that measles infection causes immune suppression and offers a different interpretation of antibody changes. -He closes by discussing the common argument that vaccines got rid of measles, and he offers his view that vaccines changed the expression of childhood illness rather than eliminating a specific viral disease.Throughout the webinar, Tom emphasizes logic, falsifiability, and the need to distinguish direct observation from assumptions. He encourages listeners to send the webinar to doctors, virologists, health freedom leaders, and others so the claims around measles, transmission, virus isolation, immunity, and vaccines can be openly examined and debated.Support the showWebsites:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/Instagram: @TalkinTurkeywithTomFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTomCowan/Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/CivTSuEjw6Qp/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzxdc2o0Q_XZIPwo07XCrNg

What happens when you stop asking your digestive system to constantly do more? In Ayurveda, digestion is about far more than what happens in your gut. Agni, often translated as digestive fire, is the force of transformation, the process through which we digest, absorb, process and transform what we take in. And because we are constantly taking in more than just food, Ayurveda views digestion as something that can influence the whole system. In this episode, we explore what can happen when we give digestion a little more space, simplicity and rhythm. Colette covers the following: Why Agni is about much more than digesting food How modern lifestyles can place additional demands on digestion The Ayurvedic concept of Ama and why it is often misunderstood The connection between digestion, energy and mental clarity Why Ayurveda looks at digestion as part of the bigger picture rather than simply focusing on the gut How simplifying food, routines and daily habits can support digestion What you can learn about yourself when you give your digestive system a break How a seasonal reset can provide an opportunity to pause, adapt and reconnect with your body's signals Why self-awareness and self-trust are ultimately more important than following someone else's perfect routine   Join the Autumn Digestive Reset Cleanse If you're ready to support your body through this seasonal transition, my Discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse begins October 9th. This Ayurvedic cleanse is designed to gently remove accumulation, strengthen digestion, and help you re-establish daily rhythm while learning about your unique constitution and patterns.

Why Herbalists Need Medical Botany You've done the training. You know your calendula, chamomile, echinacea, and goldenrod. But the aster family alone holds 34,000 species. In this episode, April shares why medical botany is the missing framework for trained herbalists. It was once the backbone of American healthcare, and today almost no one has heard of it. In this episode: How April found medical botany. Fieldwork with botanist Richard Porcher led her to Charleston's Waring Historical Library, where she found shelves of medical botany texts and MD dissertations on single plants and regional floras. What medical botany actually is. It's the system doctors and eclectic physicians used in the 1700s and 1800s: classification, systematics, then medicine. What Latin names reveal. Phytolacca americana is decoded, and she explains why "officinalis" tells you a plant earned its place in the official pharmacopeia. The 4 out of 34,000 problem. Most herbalists work with a handful of asters while the native ones in their own yard go unknown. Why botany comes first. A federally threatened plant, swamp pink (Helonias bullata), ended up printed as a medicinal herb in a bestselling foraging book. The native asters in April's Charleston yard. She covers golden aster, sneezeweed, rabbit tobacco, and Bidens, and why Bidens is blooming while her echinacea struggles. Taste as the teacher. Ayurveda and herbal energetics let you read any wild plant as bitter, salty, astringent, or sweet, through your own constitution. Why this matters now. In April's words, "the most endangered thing right now is humans' connection to the land." Plants mentioned: Pokeweed (Phytolacca americana) Calendula (Calendula officinalis) Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) Swamp pink (Helonias bullata) Golden aster (Heterotheca) Sneezeweed (Helenium) Rabbit tobacco (Pseudognaphalium) Spanish needles (Bidens) Blue curls (Trichostema) Blanket flower (Gaillardia pulchella) Eastern horsemint (Monarda punctata) Lamb's quarters, muscadine, and maypop Resources mentioned: Resources of the Southern Fields and Forests by Francis Peyre Porcher Julia Morton's work on Lowcountry folk medicine Waring Historical Library and its medicinal plant garden (MUSC, Charleston, SC) Foraging Wild Herbs: 30 Healing Plants of the Carolina Coast by April Punsalan Ready to learn the plants beneath your feet?

He put more care into choosing a corsage than most of us put into ourselves — and that same attention shaped a whole life.In this episode of The Neurocomplex Creative, Vicki Peterson reconnects with her high school prom date and longtime friend Jesse Keene to explore sensitivity, intuition and the survival skills we carry with us from childhood into adult life.Together, they reflect on growing up highly sensitive in difficult environments, learning to read the people around them, and how those early adaptations can develop into people-pleasing, masking and losing ourselves in order to feel safe. Jesse traces his own journey through corporate success, meditation and spiritual communities towards a more intentional life rooted in Ayurveda, healing and wellness.Vicki and Jesse also explore childhood trauma, neurodivergence, recovery and the exhaustion that can come from constantly adapting ourselves to different people and environments. At its heart, this is a conversation about friendship, intuition and what happens when we finally find relationships and communities where it feels safe to be seen.

Dr. Shivani Gupta watched diabetes move through her family in India, then studied Ayurveda to find out what could be done for it. She explains Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, what each type tends to eat and how each sleeps, her daily clock and seasonal eating, and the rockstar power of turmeric! Plus her proposal that menopause is a Vata shift. Code DRMOTLEY will give you 15% off Dr. Shivani's incredible Ayurvedic formulas at Fusionary Formulas: https://fusionaryformulas.com/. Head here for Dr. Shivani's first episode of the Ancient Health Podcast! https://youtu.be/i4QXlf4VIHY Key Takeaways Vata types are told to eat three regular meals. At [00:18:56], her first homework for the thin, airy, always-in-motion type is "three square meals a day," and if that fails, keep nuts and tea within reach. She has meals delivered to wherever she is working.  Pitta types are told to cool down, and Kapha types to move. Pitta (medium build, runs hot, driven and organized) gets cooling foods and a warning about summer heat. Kapha (sturdy, loyal, tends to sluggishness) gets a push to walk or move each day before the evening slump.  Turmeric in food is one thing, concentrated capsules are another. She recommends cooking turmeric with black pepper or a healthy fat, which is traditional and low-risk. Ask your prescriber first, especially if you take any medicine or have liver or gallbladder problems. Educational only, not medical advice. Do not stop or reduce any prescribed medicine, including insulin, without your prescriber. If you take any medicine or have liver or gallbladder problems, ask your prescriber before starting turmeric or curcumin supplements. 00:00 Cold open: the spice she wrote her dissertation on 00:41 Sponsor: Timeline and Mitopure (urolithin A) 02:07 Welcome back, Dr. Gupta, in person in Nashville 03:54 A Houston kid, summers in India, and diabetes in every generation 05:33 The night she touched her grandfather's feet 07:07 Why she went to India to study Ayurveda, and the pattern she repeats 12:30 Kitchen spices, a master's, a turmeric dissertation, and black pepper 16:36 Pillar one, your dosha: Vata, the thin and airy type 20:12 Pitta, the fire type: volcanoes, marriage, and parenting two constitutions 26:18 Kapha, the earth type, and why she says they sleep ten hours 29:00 The Ayurvedic clock, an earlier bedtime, and eating with the seasons 34:45 Turmeric: what she says it does, and boswellia 42:47 Sugar, gluten, and two case stories 46:22 Her next book and the "vata syndrome of menopause" 48:31 Where to find Dr. Gupta, and the close Want more of The Ancient Health Podcast?

If you're trying to build an online yoga or wellness business, it can feel nearly impossible to stand out.Because if you're offering generic online yoga classes, you're competing with thousands of free videos on YouTube, yoga apps, and established teachers with huge personal brands. If someone doesn't know you yet, why would they choose you?In this episode, I'm sharing a different way to think about your offer: start with a real-life problem your people actually want help solving, and then use yoga, breathwork, meditation, Ayurveda, or whatever your tools are to help them get there.I'll share a few things I would personally pay for right now, from help getting back to sleep at 3am to short strength workouts for women over 50, plus examples of entrepreneurs on Skool who are building successful communities around specific problems and desires.We'll also talk about how to identify a problem you could become known for solving, how to get beyond vague promises like “feel more balanced” or “reduce stress,” and why you don't need to have your perfect niche figured out before you start.FREE TRAINING: How to Turn Your Yoga Wisdom into Consistent Online IncomeIn this free training I'll walk you through the Honey Flow Method: the exact system yoga teachers are using to add $1k or more to their monthly income with one small digital offer, without needing a big audience or pushy tactics.➡️ https://susannerieker.com/trainingJOIN THE BLISSFUL BIZ HIVE

What if something that looks like misalignment is your body adapting to what's happening in your life? And what can pain reveal when we stop treating it as the enemy?Chris shares a very different way of looking at the relationship between the brain, spinal cord, and body, including an approach to chiropractic care that uses an incredibly light touch. He also introduces three surprising layers of pain that go well beyond the physical.The conversation eventually ventures into energy, information, grief, consciousness, gratitude, and even what happened when Lauren's dog Louis experienced this type of care.If you've ever wondered what your pain might be trying to tell you, this conversation may have you asking some very different questions.Now available wherever you get your podcasts!Chapters:00:00 Meet Dr. Chris Wambeke00:00 Meet Chris Wambeke02:03 What Chiropractic Really Is06:24 Pain as Feedback11:24 Spinal Cord as Vibration17:12 Everything Is Energy23:18 Holding Space for Change30:23 Choices Beyond Mental31:59 NUCCA Light Touch33:51 Resonance Body Signals35:05 Spinal Cord Frequency36:43 Testing Real Change38:01 Soul Bonds Timing40:37 Grief Meaning Making44:52 Brain Spine Electricity49:21 Self Versus Consciousness52:58 Energy Loops Mindset58:23 Choosing Better Questions01:01:57 Gratitude Worry Strategy01:05:20 Closing ReflectionsEpisode Resources:Chris Wambeke is a chiropractor dedicated to helping people on their human journey by applying chiropractic principles to maximize potential.A mountain kid from Northwest Montana, he focuses on making the biggest impact possible with the resources available in the moment.For deeper insight into the ideas that shape his work, explore The Seeker's Code by Donny Epstein.Contact him at flipchiropractic@gmail.com.EMYoga Online Courses: emyoga.thinkific.com/collections/emyoga-coursesShop our EMYoga Store: emyogastore.com/Sign up for our FREE weekly Newsletter: www.energymedicineyoga.net/Listen on Spotify: Energy WorksListen on Apple Podcasts: Energy WorksFollow us on Instagram: @EnergyMedicineYogaFollow us on Facebook: @EnergyMedicineYoga#EnergyMedicineYoga #EnergyWorksPodcast #WellnessPodcast #EmotionalHealing #EmotionalHealth #Longevity #ChineseMedicine #Ayurveda #HolisticHealth #EMYoga

Can AI know your body better than you do? In this episode of Wisdom of the Body, Heather Grzych explores what artificial intelligence could mean for the future of medicine—and the difference between measuring the human body and actually experiencing life inside one. AI can analyze medical images, health records, genetic information, wearable data, and physiological patterns at a scale no human physician can match. But can AI actually know what pain, fatigue, hunger, fear, or a change in your body feels like? Drawing on Ayurveda, the story of Prometheus, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and science fiction including Gattaca, Brave New World, and Blade Runner, Heather examines the difference between data, intelligence, human experience, and wisdom. She explores why the human body is not simply an object to be measured, why patients' own observations still matter in medicine, and what could happen if we begin trusting algorithms more than our own lived experience. AI may become extraordinarily intelligent, but intelligence isn't the same as wisdom—and AI isn't God. The future of healthcare may depend not only on what machines can know about our bodies, but on whether humans remember how to know themselves.   Heather Grzych, ADLC is an author, healthcare strategist, and host of the Wisdom of the Body podcast, a top 2.5% global podcast. A former president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association, healthcare executive, and clinician who has guided women through high-stakes fertility decisions, Heather has spent her career helping people navigate uncertainty where health, strategy, and human behavior intersect. She is the author of The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility, which has sold thousands of copies worldwide, and has been featured in Sports Illustrated, Yoga Journal, and the Sunday Independent.    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

Sajah Popham of The School of Evolutionary Herbalism examines two often-overlooked branches of the Western healing tradition: alchemy and medical astrology. He traces their history, explains their philosophy, and explores how they are essential to a contemporary approach to working with herbs and people. Here's what you'll learn: Why medical astrology is a key framework for understanding constitution and health, and not simply for psychology and personal events How figures such as Paracelsus and Isaac Newton helped shape the historical legacy of alchemy What the Hermetic ideas of the logos and macrocosm and microcosm contribute to Western herbal thought How celestial and elemental correspondences can help interpret an herb's qualities and actions What spagyrics are and how spagyric preparations aim to preserve and reunite a plant's physical, energetic, and spiritual dimensions   We are currently running a new FREE workshop series!

What if you didn't wait until your body was struggling before you gave it a reset? In our modern world, we often think of a cleanse or reset as something we need to do after we've overindulged, eaten too much sugar, gained weight, or simply "fallen off the wagon." But Ayurveda takes a different, more preventative approach. Because we are part of nature, the changing seasons affect us too, influencing our digestion, energy, routines, appetite, sleep and overall balance. In this episode, Colette explores why the transition between seasons is such an important time to pause, listen to the body, simplify and support ourselves through change. An Ayurvedic seasonal reset is about much more than a cleanse or detox. Through the Ayurvedic principle of ritucharya, adapting our lifestyle according to the seasons, we can become more aware of how our bodies respond to environmental changes and make adjustments before imbalance becomes more established. Colette explores the relationship between the seasons and the doshas, why supporting agni (digestive fire) is central to an Ayurvedic reset, and why cleansing should include preparation, simplicity, digestion, elimination and, importantly, rejuvenation. You'll also discover how a seasonal reset can become a powerful practice of preventative health rather than something we only turn to when something goes wrong. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Ayurveda takes a preventative approach to health and wellbeing How seasonal changes can influence our bodies, digestion, energy and daily routines The Ayurvedic concept of ritucharya and adapting our lifestyle with the seasons How the doshas can accumulate and become aggravated during seasonal transitions Why subtle changes in digestion can be signals that your body is adapting to a new season Why simplifying food, routines and stimulation can support the body during seasonal change What an Ayurvedic digestive reset involves beyond simply "detoxing" Why supporting digestion and elimination is an important part of a seasonal reset Why the process doesn't end when the cleanse ends The importance of rejuvenation and rebuilding after cleansing Why you don't need to wait until something is wrong before supporting your health How to make a seasonal reset personal to your constitution, lifestyle and individual needs   Join the Autumn Digestive Reset Cleanse If you're ready to support your body through this seasonal transition, my Discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse begins October 9th.

Send us Fan MailThis one came straight from the heart — no notes, no plan, just something I had been wanting to say for a couple of weeks.I'm coming off a deeply nourishing retreat at Limina Renewal Center in Searsport, Maine — three days of Ayurvedic bodywork, classes, ocean air, and beautiful people — and I settled into this episode with something I've been sitting with all September: the idea that perimenopause corresponds not just with transition and difficulty, but with harvest, abundance, and fullness.What we explore:The Ayurvedic seasons of life — childhood as kapha (spring, building, unctuous), pitta as the long summer of life (fire, flowering, fruiting, doing), and vata as fall and winter (lighter, drier, subtler, quieter). Perimenopause is late summer — technically still pitta season, but feeling the shift toward fall.Late summer as perimenopause season — the variable weather, the hot days followed by cool ones, the storms and the sunshine. Sound familiar?The fullness of this time that we forget — the tomatoes still ripening, the dahlias blooming, the harvest happening even as some things are dying back. This is also a time of bounty: decades of experience, all the women we've been, the wisdom we're stepping into.The messy garden as a metaphor for a life — it doesn't look the way we planned. There are weeds. But if we pull back and really look, there are still flowers. There is still so much growing. And the non-traditional path has fruited in ways we might not have expected.The virgin archetype — not the uninitiated woman, but the woman who is whole unto herself — like a virgin forest or virgin wool. The archetype that lives between mother and crone. Coming into that wholeness even in the midst of still mothering, still building, still doing.Being with what is — a practice Chandra Cantor spoke about in an earlier episode. How can we see the wholeness of what actually is — weeds and flowers both — without needing it to be perfect or what we imagined?Creating our own rites of passage — our culture offers none for this transition. But we can offer them to ourselves.Guided meditation: The Fullness of All You've Been I close the episode with a spontaneous guided practice — a gentle time-travel meditation that visits the child, the teenager, the young adult, and the current self, gathers all those versions together, and finally glimpses the version of you stepping through the perimenopause portal to the other side. Previously mentioned:Erik Jackson — digestion episode Chandra Cantor — "being with what is" episode Limina Renewal Center, Searsport, Maine: liminarenewal.comResources:Free Masterclass:  The Alchemy of the Perimenopause PortalAyurvedic Dosha Quick Reference GuideAbhyanga Self Massage GuideWeekend Nervous System ResetNourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.mynourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

In this episode of Savoring the End, I reflect on the changing winds of early autumn and the feeling that something in the air is asking us some big questions about our next steps.

I am delighted to welcome Dr. Shivani Gupta today for the first of two interviews. Dr. Gupta is the founder and CEO of Fusionary Formulas and the author of The Inflammation Code. She has both a master's degree and a PhD in Vedic sciences, where her dissertation focused on turmeric's role in inflammation, joint health, and cardiovascular health. In today's conversation, we explore the physical effects of chronic inflammation, habits to support stress reduction, the differences between inflammaging and normal physiologic aging, and ways to nurture ourselves in midlife (which Dr. Gupta calls the Vata season). We also discuss how ama can contribute to inflammatory processes in the body, digestive fire, constipation and strategies to address it, the importance of curcumin, and the research surrounding it. Dr. Gupta and I will continue our conversation on our next podcast together. Stay tuned for part two! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Dr. Gupta shares the personal experiences that motivated her to write The Inflammation Code Environmental and lifestyle factors that contribute to the body's inflammatory burden Why inflammation can become more difficult to manage during the perimenopause and menopause transition How the symptoms of normal aging could actually be signs of inflammaging Dr. Gupta explains the Ayurvedic concept of Agni, or digestive fire, and shares ways to support digestion Practical Ayurvedic ways to support regular bowel movements How Dr. Gupta approaches gut and immune health after repeated antibiotic exposure The Ayurvedic approach to diet differs from restrictive or extreme eating patterns.  The potential anti-inflammatory benefits of turmeric, curcumin, and other polyphenol-rich spices    How culinary turmeric differs from concentrated curcumin extracts Bio: Dr. Shivani Gupta is an Ayurvedic practitioner, turmeric researcher, and founder of Fusionary Formulas. She holds a Master's degree in Ayurvedic Sciences and completed her PhD dissertation- specifically on turmeric making her one of the world's foremost experts on its pharmacology and clinical application. She is the author of The Inflammation Code, published by Hay House, bridging ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern inflammation science. Dr. Gupta is known for making complex science accessible without dumbing it down — her work speaks equally to the everyday health-conscious woman and to clinicians who want to go deeper.

What if feeling better isn't about doing more, but learning to work with your body's natural constitution? In this episode, Dr. Harmony Robinson-Stagg makes Ayurveda practical and accessible, exploring how this ancient system of medicine can help us understand our individual needs, patterns and imbalances. You'll learn what Ayurveda really is, how it differs from modern medicine and why its personalized approach looks at the individual rather than simply treating a diagnosis. You can find show notes, resources and more at: https://tinyurl.com/yvsc3r2y 

What if a cancer diagnosis that feels like the end of your world could actually become the beginning of a completely new and empowering relationship with your body, your life, and yourself? In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with Elina Fuhrman — Cancer Healing Strategist, epigenetics expert, therapeutic chef, bestselling author of Soupelina's Soup Cleanse, and founder of the Healing Journey Method and the Fuhrman Protocol. After discovering a lump just before her 40th birthday and receiving an aggressive breast cancer diagnosis, Elina found herself overwhelmed by fear, conflicting information, and treatment decisions that felt impossibly urgent. So she turned to the skill that had shaped her former career as an Emmy-nominated CNN journalist: she started asking questions. Relentlessly and fervently — like her life depended on it. And those questions took her places she never expected. We explore what it means to become an active participant in your health journey rather than simply handing over your power, why Elina believes there are important parts of the cancer conversation we're still missing, and how her search for answers ultimately became about far more than treating a diagnosis. We also talk about the connection between nourishment and healing, shedding old identities and emotional patterns, intuition, and what can happen when life forces us to finally listen to the parts of ourselves we may have ignored for years. Elina shares how her own search for a more nourishing way to eat ultimately led her into the kitchen, where her exploration of herbs, plants, and therapeutic soups became another unexpected chapter of her healing journey. Elina's story challenges some deeply held ideas about illness, healing, and even what it means to “fight” cancer. Whether you're navigating a diagnosis, supporting someone you love, or simply want to feel more empowered in your own health, this conversation is an invitation to ask different questions — and perhaps see healing through an entirely new (and more hopeful) lens. Key Moments You'll Love ✨ :

Have you ever noticed that when you're not feeling your best, your instinct is to do more? Another supplement, another diet, another wellness routine or maybe another expert to follow. But what if your body doesn't need more from you right now? What if it needs less? In this episode, Colette explores the Ayurvedic wisdom of simplicity and why creating space can sometimes be more supportive than continually adding more. Ayurveda reminds us that the body is constantly processing; not only food, but also information, experiences, emotions, stimulation and the demands of everyday life. When there is too much coming in and not enough capacity to process it, we can begin to feel overwhelmed, disconnected and depleted. Creating space can give the body an opportunity to digest, process and eliminate what it no longer needs, while also creating room for intuition, clarity and creativity to emerge. In this episode, you'll discover: Why our instinct to add more isn't always the answer when something isn't working The Ayurvedic understanding of Agni and why digestive capacity matters How we can become overwhelmed by the constant input of modern life Why simplicity can reduce the energy required to navigate our daily lives The difference between restriction and simplification How Ayurveda understands Ama as residue or accumulation from what has not been properly digested or processed Why creating space can support digestion, processing and elimination How mental and emotional "clutter" can make it harder to hear our intuition Why creativity often needs space rather than more stimulation How a seasonal reset can help us step back from unnecessary demands Why your body doesn't always need another protocol, supplement, diet or wellness routine Three simple questions to ask before adding something new to your health routine   Join the Autumn Digestive Reset Cleanse If you're ready to support your body through this seasonal transition, my Discounted Group Digestive Reset Cleanse begins October 9th.

Send us Fan MailHeidi Weiland built what appeared to be a thriving web agency: steady referrals, corporate clients, established systems and a growing team. Behind the success, however, she was exhausted, anxious and dreading the business she had created.In this conversation with Joey Pinz, Heidi explains how people-pleasing, poor boundaries and the pressure to work harder gradually turned entrepreneurship into burnout. She reveals why a founder's nervous system can quietly influence hiring, sales, productivity and other major business decisions—and how to recognize when anxiety is choosing the strategy.Heidi also introduces “regenerative success”: building a business that returns energy, meaning and connection instead of continually depleting its owner. Drawing on more than 20 years of entrepreneurship, operations experience, yoga, Ayurveda and nervous-system-informed coaching, she offers a more human approach to sustainable business growth.

In this episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine welcomes Brett Aldrich of Seed the Spirit for a beautiful conversation about Ayurveda, breast health, prevention, self-care, and understanding the body's natural rhythms.Brett shares how her journey into Ayurvedic medicine began during a season when the wellness practices that had once supported her were no longer enough. As a former athlete and yoga practitioner, she had always valued physical health, but rising stress, shifting energy, family responsibilities, and life's natural transitions led her to search for something deeper.Her introduction to Ayurveda began simply—with a card outlining Ayurvedic daily practices. She began experimenting with circadian rhythms, meal timing, sleep, rest, and Abhyanga, the Ayurvedic practice of self-massage. Within weeks, Brett noticed meaningful changes. That experience eventually grew into a deeper study of Ayurveda and a new understanding of health as something that encompasses the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual aspects of our lives.Ayurveda & Breast HealthDana and Brett explore breast wellness through an Ayurvedic lens.Breast tissue does not exist independently from the rest of the body. Breast health is interconnected with the lymphatic system, endocrine system, digestion, elimination, inflammation, circulation, emotional health, and the body's ability to process and remove waste.From an Ayurvedic perspective, imbalance may appear as inflammation, stagnation, sluggish movement, or difficulty processing what the body no longer needs.Brett discusses gentle practices that may be incorporated into a holistic breast-care routine, including self-massage, supportive oils, breathwork, and individualized lifestyle practices.The conversation also explores the emotional and energetic connection of the breasts, heart, lungs, chest, grief, love, and loss.Don't Ignore the Body's Natural SignalsOne of the most powerful conversations in this episode centers around elimination and the natural functions we often suppress.Bowel movements, sweating, crying, breathing deeply, resting, and responding to the body's signals are natural processes. Continually holding back what the body is designed to release may contribute to feelings of stagnation and imbalance.Dana and Brett discuss why something as simple as regular elimination can become an important foundation of a wellness plan.Her message is simple and empowering:You may wish you knew these things years ago—but now you know. And now is your opportunity to begin.There is no need to live in regret over what you didn't know before. Your body is constantly changing, and every season offers another opportunity to listen, learn, and support yourself differently.Connect with BrettLearn more about Brett Aldrich and Seed the Spirit.Brett offers one-on-one Ayurvedic support, breathwork education, personalized lifestyle guidance, and virtual consultations.For more conversations supporting women through health, faith, purpose, and their Age of Wisdom, visit DanaIrvine.com.Ayurvedic medicine, Ayurveda for women, breast health, holistic health, lymphatic health, self-massage, Abhyanga, prevention, natural healing, elimination, emotional wellness, detoxification, women's health, self-care, energy balance, holistic breast care

Radhika shares how Ayurveda can help you slow down, reduce energy leaks, and return to a more embodied way of living where less really can be more.
