Podcasts about kapha

In this podcast, Hannah Levin discusses her mission to alleviate unnecessary suffering through Ayurveda and yoga, drawing from her personal health crisis with high-grade cervical dysplasia. She explains how Western medicine offered surgery as the only option, but discovering Ayurveda helped her heal and inspired her to guide others toward conscious, health-supportive choices. Levin emphasizes that much of our suffering comes from living out of sync with nature's rhythms, often unconsciously, and that true freedom arises from balancing structure and spontaneity. She delves into Ayurvedic principles, including the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), and how they influence health, emotions, and daily habits. Through her coaching, she helps people cultivate awareness, implement gradual habit changes, and make sustainable lifestyle shifts aligned with their unique constitutions. The conversation also explores the role of community, meditation, and intentional living in fostering well-being, ultimately advocating for a compassionate, balanced approach to personal growth and healing.--Hannah Elizabeth Levin is the founder of Heartfelt Wellbeing LLC. She is an Ayurveda Practitioner, yoga teacher, and artist who also holds a masters degree in teaching. Hannah expertly guides women to regain their optimal health and wellbeing through her online coaching programs and retreats.https://www.heartfeltwellbeing.com/https://www.facebook.com/heartfeltwellbeinghttps://www.facebook.com/groups/heartfelthannahhttps://www.instagram.com/heartfeltwellbeing/ Hosted on Acast.

Addiction, from an Ayurvedic lens, is more than just a physical dependence—it's a deep imbalance in the body, mind, and spirit. It often arises from a disconnect from one's true self (Prakriti) and an accumulation of toxins (Ama), whether physical, emotional, or energetic. Many turn to substances in an attempt to soothe inner suffering, regulate emotions, or fill a void left by trauma or unresolved pain.    •    Vata imbalances can manifest as anxiety, restlessness, and a pervasive sense of emptiness, driving the urge to escape through addiction.    •    Pitta imbalances fuel intense cravings, impulsivity, and self-destructive tendencies.    •    Kapha imbalances create stagnation, attachment, and emotional heaviness, making it harder to break free from addictive cycles.Substance use depletes Ojas (vital essence) and Prana (life force energy), but Ayurveda offers a path to rebuild through nourishment, breathwork, meditation, and detoxification practices like Panchakarma and Rasayana (rejuvenation therapy). By restoring balance through daily routines (Dinacharya) and sattvic living, we cultivate clarity, resilience, and self-awareness—key elements in long-term healing.Today, we're honored to sit down with Rob Loud, a yoga teacher whose journey through drug and alcohol addiction led him to a path of deep transformation. Rob describes his teaching style as embodied vinyasa, drawing wisdom from multiple yogic lineages. His passion for yoga is evident—not just in his classes, which are creative, intelligent, and dynamic—but in the way he lives his practice.In this conversation, Rob opens up about his early struggles with addiction, the trauma that shaped him, and how rewiring his nervous system through yoga became the foundation of his recovery. We discuss how yoga not only supports sobriety but also helps navigate both daily stressors and the deeper emotional wounds that addiction often masks.This is a raw, vulnerable conversation—one that invites us all into a deeper intimacy with ourselves, our inner child, and the universal thread that unites us: compassion for the suffering we all experience as human beings.Rob, thank you for your wisdom, your presence, and the light you bring to your students, on and off the mat. Send us a textSupport the showTo learn more about us, please visit www.OjasOasis.com Connect with us @ojasoasis on Instagram

Send us a textHappy Imbolc!  This is the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox.  It is also the beginning of Kapha season in Ayurvedic thought.  In this episode, I briefly share my observations on this seasonal shift and introduce the concept of the 'somatic pause,' a simple, regular practice focusing on tuning into the body's needs and signals. This practice is designed to help regulate the nervous system by skimming the overflow of daily stress and fostering a deeper connection with one's body. The Somatic Pause is an aspect of a free, accessible workbook I have created for conducting a nervous system reset, emphasizing the importance of creating intentional space for self-care and resilience. In this episode:Personal Reflections on Seasonal ChangesIntroducing the Somatic PauseHow to Practice the Somatic PauseBenefits of the Somatic PauseNervous System Reset WorkbookRelated Episodes:Episode 53 - The Window of Resilience Get your free Weekend Nervous System ResetMy resources:Deep Rest MeditationNourished For Resilience Workbook Book a free Exploratory CallFind me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

Kapha season is considered to be late winter and spring in Ayurveda, however, it's best to think of the qualities of the season as this is what determines whether it's kapha season. It's when there's cooler temperatures, the ground is saturated with rain or melting snow and the air is heavy with humidity.

  Understanding Ayurveda for Better Health and Balance Are you feeling fatigued, battling digestive issues, or struggling with hormonal imbalances? Do you find modern medicine's one-size-fits-all solutions frustrating and ineffective? If so, you're not alone. Many people are turning to ancient healing systems like Ayurveda for answers. Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old holistic health system, can help you understand your body's unique constitution, or dosha, to restore balance and vitality. This episode dives into the connection between Ayurveda, gut health, and histamine imbalances, offering actionable tips to bring your body back into harmony. Key Points What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old holistic health system focusing on balance in three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas represent combinations of the five elements: space, air, fire, water, and earth. When imbalanced, they can lead to health issues like irritability, digestive problems, or sluggishness. Understanding Your Dosha and Constitution Everyone is born with a specific dosha composition, influenced by genetics and environment. This section discusses characteristics of each dosha, such as fiery Pitta, airy Vata, and grounded Kapha, and their roles in physical and mental health. The Gut Health and Histamine Connection Ayurvedic principles focus on digestion (Agni) as a cornerstone of health. Poor digestion leads to toxin build-up (Ama), which can trigger histamine reactions. Learn how Ayurveda addresses gut issues through dietary and lifestyle adjustments. Foods for Balancing Doshas and Reducing Histamine  Pitta (Fire and Water): Avoid spicy, oily, and acidic foods. Opt for cooling options like cucumber and watermelon. Vata (Air and Space): Emphasize grounding, cooked foods like root vegetables and soups. Kapha (Water and Earth): Incorporate lighter, spiced meals to boost digestion. Ayurvedic Herbs and Lifestyle Practices Explore how herbs like tulsi, ashwagandha, and coriander support balance. Learn lifestyle tips such as stress management, detox practices, and how ancient Ayurvedic wisdom aligns with modern functional medicine. Balancing your doshas with Ayurveda offers a personalized, holistic approach to health. By understanding your unique constitution, you can manage issues like fatigue, gut imbalances, and hormonal disruptions naturally. Ayurveda isn't just about treating symptoms—it's about aligning with your body's natural rhythm for long-term wellness.

This is the third and last episode of the trilogy: What is Vat?What is Pitt?What is Kaph? Kaph is the best approximation spelling of the dosha which is transliterated as Kapha in the Western world. It is pronounced "Ca-fa" (with consonantal sounds similar to those in the word “coffee”.It is the dosha of people with a physiology that is soma-predominant and is divided into the five sub-doshas listed below (spelled Western style): 1) Tarpaka Kapha2) Kledaka Kapha3) Avlambaka Kapa4) Shleshaka Kapha5) Bodhaka Kapha Doshas not only govern the physiological processes in our body, but they are also influential in determining personality and character, and kapha people have the tendency to be friendly, sociable, team players, and more tolerant of social friction resulting from interactions with other persons.

I am excited to have Sonia Lloyd, the founder of Rasasara Skin Food, on the show with me today. Sonia founded her skincare company in Australia twenty years ago. She developed an interest in compounding skincare products after struggling with ultra-sensitive skin. Following the Ayurvedic model, she created a line specifically tailored for vata, pitta, and kapha skin types.In our discussion today, Sonia shares her experience as a skincare consultant and dives into how her products get made. She reveals how our skin reflects our diet and lifestyle and explains how the qualities of vata, pitta, and kapha within the body show up in our skin. We also explore ways to recognize what is happening in our skin and how to care for it.You will not want to miss this epic conversation with Sonia Lloyd of Rasasara Skin Food. Join us!Her Journey Sonia has been a part of the organic skincare business for 20 years, motivated by her passion for Ayurveda and a desire to eliminate the excessive fragrances in existing products. Apart from the Ayurvedic skincare products she found at local Indian grocery stores, she often encountered products laden with artificial scents that aggravated her sensitivity. That led her to discover that if a product is inedible, we should not use it on the skin. That prompted her to create Rasasara, a brand focusing on edible skincare, minimal packaging, and aesthetically pleasing design.Product Philosophy and Skin TypesSonia bases her products on Ayurvedicdoshas, targeting different skin qualities. The packaging clearly labels products for Vata, Pitta, and Kapha skin types, and the Rasasara website features a skincare quiz to help identify skin types. Sonia highlights the importance of understanding your skin type to achieve better results but reassures customers that even using the wrong product is still more beneficial than conventional options.Understanding Doshas and Their Impact on SkincareThe qualities of the three doshas:Vata: Fine and dry skin, prone to roughness and coldness. Vata products use heavier oils like black sesame to nourish and hydrate.Pitta: Typically sensitive skin with oiliness in the T-zone. Pitta skin often shows signs of heat and redness, so Sonia uses cooling ingredients such as rose and sandalwood for this skin type.Kapha: Kapha is often associated with thicker, more resilient skin that can be oily and congested. Kapha products detoxify and stimulate the skin using lighter oils.People often have a mix of dosha qualities. Sonia recommends focusing on imbalances rather than fitting strictly into one category.Recommended Skincare RoutinesPitta skin can be easily irritated. Start with a warm compress, use a floral mist, and end with a carefully selected oil for Pitta imbalances. The key is to avoid friction and inflammation while promoting healing and balance in the skin.Understanding Aging and Skin HealthBy prioritizing what we put on our skin and inside our bodies, we can dramatically reduce the visible signs of aging. Using products free from toxins allows our bodies to focus on building new tissue instead of expelling harmful substances. Many mainstream skincare products contain synthetic ingredients that act as dumping grounds for chemical byproducts, contributing to skin issues.Nourishing the SkinSkincare is nourishment for the skin. Using pure, natural ingredients means the skin can repair itself rather than battling against chemicals. The increasing awareness of the skin microbiome highlights the importance of using non-toxic ingredients. Harmful substances are still prevalent in many products, which is a challenge, especially for children.Body Oil...

In this episode, Akshay Bhat, an Ayurvedic practitioner and yoga teacher, delves into the Ayurvedic principles of health and the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. He explains that Ayurveda views health as a balance between physical, mental, and spiritual aspects, emphasizing that one's dosha is just a piece of the larger puzzle of well-being. Akshay discusses how understanding these doshas can help individuals tailor their lifestyles, diets, and routines for optimal health.  Vata, associated with movement, can lead to issues like back pain when imbalanced. Pitta, linked to fire and digestion, can cause inflammation if not balanced. Kapha individuals, with slower, heavier constitutions, may thrive on more intense exercise. The speakers highlight the importance of knowing your unique constitution to maintain a balanced lifestyle, stressing that what works for one may not work for another. They also explore the concept of circadian rhythms and how aligning daily routines with Ayurvedic principles can promote overall health. The discussion encourages listeners to embrace their unique constitution and take steps toward better self-care through Ayurveda.

Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery.  Recently I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.  You can access this at https://drvignesh.teachable.com/ For further information about Dr Vignesh Devraj, kindly visit www.vigneshdevraj.com and www.sitaramretreat.com  Instagram -  @sitarambeachretreat | @vigneshdevraj Twitter - @VigneshDevraj We truly hope you are enjoying our content.

In this episode, Amy Lynn welcomes Vish Chatterji - a former engineer who once scoffed at astrology and now uses it to guide leaders around the world.

Vish breaks down how Jyotish (Vedic astrology) can help you lead with purpose, navigate challenges, and even manage your karma. Whether you're skeptical or curious, you'll learn practical ways to tap into the stars for modern leadership success.

Connect with Vish on Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook Key Takeaways: Jyotish as a Leadership Tool: Vedic astrology offers deeper personality insights than traditional Western assessments like Myers-Briggs, helping leaders better understand themselves and their teams. Karma as a Balancing System: Vedic astrology teaches that life events are tied to a karmic balance sheet, with actions either repaying debts or creating new ones. Self-Awareness Through Archetypes: Ayurveda's three archetypes—Vata (creative), Pitta (driven), and Kapha (grounded)—help leaders tailor their leadership style based on their unique mind-body constitution.  

In this solo episode, Dr. Shivani Gupta explores the concept of doshas from Ayurveda, explaining how they relate to individual health and wellness. She discusses the three primary doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—detailing their characteristics, imbalances, and how understanding them can lead to better self-care and health management. Through personal stories and client experiences, she emphasizes the importance of aligning one's lifestyle with their dosha for optimal health and balance. Takeaways: Understanding doshas can provide deeper self-awareness. Vata is characterized by air and movement, often leading to creativity but also anxiety. Pitta embodies fire, associated with ambition but can lead to anger if imbalanced. Kapha represents earth, promoting stability but can lead to lethargy when out of balance. Personal health journeys can illustrate the impact of dosha imbalances. Aligning daily routines with dosha can enhance well-being. Seasonal changes affect dosha balance and should be considered in lifestyle choices. Ayurvedic practices offer tools for managing dosha imbalances. Self-care rituals can be customized based on dosha for better health outcomes. Ancient wisdom in Ayurveda provides holistic approaches to modern health challenges.
