Dr. Jayarajan Kodikannath, B.Sc, B.A.M.S, whom we lovingly call “Dr. J," is a world-renowned Ayurvedic doctor and the former President of NAMA (the National Ayurvedic Medical Association). An esteemed scholar, researcher, and teacher, he represents a lineage of Vaidyas from Kerala, India. As the CEO of Kerala Ayurveda Academy and Wellness Center in Northern California—where Sasha is  currently completing her doctorate—Dr. J has played a pivotal role in advancing Ayurvedic education and clinical research. His work includes leading research on Ayurvedic wellness solutions, with a recently patented herbal composition for managing metabolic syndrome disorders such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and lipid imbalances.Dr. J is also the author of The Parent's Complete Guide to Ayurveda: Principles, Practices, and Recipes for Happy, Healthy Kids, a practical and user-friendly resource offering over 50 Ayurvedic wellness practices for children ages 3–16. With over two decades of clinical experience, he has focused extensively on pediatric health and mental well-being.Above all, Dr. J is a compassionate healer and educator, dedicated to sharing the consciousness-based teachings of Ayurveda across the globe. As Sasha's own teacher, he embodies the Divine Father and Ayurveda itself, guiding his students with wisdom, humility, and love.Today, in part one of our three-part series on Ayurveda for Happy and Healthy Kids, we explore a topic close to both our hearts. We begin with Prana—the primordial life force—its role in childhood development, and its impact on cognitive health. We also discuss:The Ayurvedic perspective on childhood growth and developmentCommon childhood imbalances and their root causesThe role of parents in their children's healthThe impact of stress and environmental factors on kidsThe controversial use of pharmaceuticals for behavioral challengesBreaking cycles of sleep deprivation for parentsBalancing structured activities with free, unstructured playtimeThe healing power of nature and the innate healing capacity within us allIt seems fitting that Dr. J wrote a book on conscious, loving Ayurvedic parenting—because that is exactly what he offers us as his students. He doesn't just teach Ayurveda; he embodies it, sharing from his heart rather than merely his vast knowledge. His wisdom flows effortlessly, granting all of us in his presence the blessing of Darshan—Divine sight.Send us a textSupport the showTo learn more about us, please visit www.OjasOasis.com Connect with us @ojasoasis on Instagram

Pediatric Meltdown

Have you ever wondered why anxiety in children can look and feel so physical—and what we as pediatricians, parents, or caregivers can do about it? We're visiting a fan favorite from Episode #26 of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Colleen Cullinan, a leading pediatric psychologist, to dissect the powerful 3 B's approach: Brain, Body, and Behavior. Together, they reveal eye-opening truths about integrated behavioral health, the ways anxiety manifests in kids, and practical, actionable strategies for managing emotional meltdowns in real-time. This is not just about recognizing anxiety—it's about transforming how we support kids inside and outside the exam room. If you want to empower families, level up your clinical skills, and make a tangible difference, don't miss this conversation. This episode could change the way you think about pediatric care—forever.[00:00 - 11:35] Integrated Care Foundations: Building Partnerships in Pediatric PracticeIntegrated behavioral health bridges the gap between physical and mental health, creating seamless care experiences for families.Primary care is often the first—and sometimes only—entry point for children facing emotional or behavioral challenges.Partnerships between pediatricians and behavioral health providers increase accessibility, reduce stigma, and foster earlier intervention.The synergy and trust between pediatricians and psychology professionals leads to holistic, effective patient care.[11:36 - 15:49] The Role of Primary Care in Managing Anxiety and Emotional HealthPrimary care providers serve as trusted anchors, introducing mental health as an essential component of overall health.Familiarity with a child's history allows pediatricians to recognize subtle behavior changes and collaborate meaningfully with behavioral specialists.Normalizing physical symptoms of anxiety (like stomachaches and headaches) helps bridge conversations from medical to emotional concerns.Educating families on the inseparability of physical and emotional health empowers them to seek support without shame.[15:50 - 28:55] Anxiety Explained: The 3 B's and Practical Strategies for KidsThe "3 B's": Brain, Body, and Behavior, are interlinked—anxiety in the brain triggers body sensations, which guide behavior, often leading to avoidance.Psychoeducation is key: Emphasizing to families and youth that everyone experiences anxiety validates their feelings and reduces shame.Simple, actionable distress tolerance tools—breathing exercises, grounding techniques (like the “five senses” method), and focusing attention—can be taught in minutes during a regular visit.Providers can help children recognize “worry thoughts” and redirect their response before anxiety spirals into withdrawal or meltdown.[28:56 - 49:20] When to Escalate: Distress Tolerance, Prevention, and Team-Based SolutionsDistress tolerance techniques can bridge the gap until a child can access specialized behavioral care—or be sufficient for milder cases.Functional impairment is the marker for when anxiety moves from “manageable” to requiring traditional CBT or higher-level intervention.Exposure therapy explained: At its core, CBT for anxiety involves identifying fears and encouraging gradual, manageable exposure to them, with improvement through repetition.Advocacy for integrated behavioral health, resource sharing, and ongoing partnerships with community therapists are essential for sustainable, high-impact child mental health care.[49:21- 53:34] Dr. Lia's...

Help! My marriage has shipwrecked my life. This thought arises in every marriage. The idea of great love in marriage and family can be exhilarating. It still causes people to lay in bed and dream of what life could be with someone they love. Why? The greatest human experience is the giving and receiving of great love. But…. What if the dream gets shipwrecked? A spouse becomes an addict. Someone has an affair. The person you love crushes your heart. In every relationship, at some point, the person that made you want to get on board the boat, is the same person that makes you want to overboard. Or push them overboard. In every relationship! These moments will happen.Can the marriage be fixed? No. But lives can change. The people in the marriage can change and that changes everything. The sharks are swirling. Future painFinancial ruinRegretImpact on the kidsThe sinking boat represents the life I was made for. The person I was made to be. Some people use these moments to live like never before. Other people get used by these moments and never really live again. The question becomes, where is my new boat. It's not about pulling up the old one. It's about finding a new one. It can be a new boat together. It can be separate boats together. (if you have kids, that is going to be the reality whether you want it or not.) you are going to be together in a contentious way or in a loving way. Talk to an unbiased person who has wisdom in these matters! There are many people who have experience in the pain of things like this. But no experience in the redemption of things like this. These people will help you walk in their pain. Other people can help you walk in your redemption story. I would say that our role is to provide a safe place for people to float while they figure out the steps to navigate toward the future they were made for. Support the Show.

The CashPT Lunch Hour Podcast | Build a Successful Physical Therapy Business Without Relying on Insurance

Here's the problem:You've been told you're stupid for not remembering things.You sat in a room with no windows and told to “just study harder”.You've been told you're not good enough for forgetting your homework.Struggled in school to get straight A's? But you're intuitive and great with your hands?ADD how it effects me and how I manage itIf you have ADHD, you are a problem solver and need to leverage that super power.My ADHD Superpowers are solving complex problems and locking on to a target and not letting go.I see solutions to problems others can't see or can't see for themselves.It's what has helped me be able to charge $250/hour for physical therapy when everyone else thinks physical therapy is only worth the co-pay.It's why I am a coach and have a coach.It's also what gets me in trouble in personal relationships.It was really hard listening to my ex when she just wanted to process her feelings and what happened. I just wanted to solve the problem, make a decision and move on.It's even what bugs me about my mom.She's always trying to solve my problems instead of just listening to me.it's why my daughter and I clash, fight or bicker as other people see it. She also wants to be heard and with every problem I see a simple solution.5 Ways I manage my ADD1) Write it down - Make Lists2) Calendar - if it doesn't exist in my calendar it's not happening.3) Take action on the small things and complete the tasks4) Time Timer 0- time block 5) Maintain a routine-keys/wallet always in the same place, -Wake up and workout at the same times -weekly schedule - work in the morning, calls in the afternoons6) Medicate - Take Ritalin - it keeps me from having to jungle all the balls, even in the afternoons when I'm with my kidsThe bigger the problem you can solve the more impact you will have and the more money you can make.

If you are listening to this podcast, my hunch is you're working hard to learn as much as you can about your child and the neurodivergent community. But the truth is, we are bound to not know some things and make mistakes. And I want to be the first one to tell you, that's okay! There is no shame in making mistakes as long as we keep on learning and try to do better further down the line. My guests today are on a mission to show parents that there are different ways of approaching autism beyond what they're told in doctors or therapists offices. Meghan Ashburn and Jules Edwards, co-authors of the book I Will Die on This Hill: Autistic Adults, Autism Parents, and the Children Who Deserve a Better World, are making it really clear that there is no one size fits all for any families and that there is so much to learn from just listening more. About Meghan AshburnMeghan Ashburn is a continuous learner, educational consultant, parent mentor, and co-author of I Will Die On This Hill. She's passionate about helping schools create more inclusive, accessible environments. Her online book club has over 10K members, and releases book recommendation lists on autism and neurodiversity. Meghan advocates for communication rights and inclusion at the local, state, and national level. She sits on her school district's Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC) and is a recent graduate of Virginia's Partners in Policymaking.About Jules EdwardsJules Edwards is a neurodivergent Anishinaabe writer, gardener, accountant, and disability justice advocate. She is the parent of neurodivergent Afro Indigenous people, and care provider to many neurodivergent children throughout the years. Jules is passionate about building community and works to improve child safety and disability policy.Current roles include: care work of disabled youth, co-founder of Minnesota Autistic Alliance, board member for the Minnesota Ombudsman for American Indian Families, board member of The Arc Minnesota.  She serves as the elected chairperson of the Minnesota Autism Council, a workgroup of the Senate Human Services Reform Finance and Policy Committee.Things you'll learn from this episodeWhat disability justice isWays that allistic and autistic parents raising autistic children can work together toward our common goals for our kidsThe harms of a continual pursuit for “normal” in ways that don't respect or embrace our kids' neurodivergenceWhy self-determination should be the goal over “independence”Ways that allistic parents may be perpetuating ableism without realizing itWhat an “autism moon” is and why ideal for families who are navigating a new diagnosis of autism Resources mentionedMeghan Ashburn's website Not an Autism MomMeghan Ashburn's Au-Some Book ClubI Will Die on This Hill: Autistic Adults, Autism Parents, and the Children Who Deserve a Better World by Meghan Ashburn and Jules EdwardsThe Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a 13-Year-Old Boy with Autism by Naoki HigashidaSupport the showConnect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram
