Podcasts about Pitta

As the weather warms, your skin might become oilier, break out more, or feel dull and irritated. These issues, including redness, inflammation, sun sensitivity, rashes, and heat bumps can indicate an increase in Pitta dosha. Ayurveda teaches us that skin health reflects internal wellbeing, including digestion, blood, toxins and emotions. Colette explores how to take care of your skin holistically during hot weather using timeless Ayurvedic principles and she covers the following: The subdosha of pitta governing the skin. The role of rasa dhatu (plasma) and rakta dhatu (blood) in skin health. Importance of digestion in skin radiance. The liver-skin connection in Ayurveda. Root causes of Summer skin imbalances. Signs of Pitta imbalance showing up in the skin. Ayurvedic dietary guidelines for Summer skin health. Lifestyle and daily routines for radiant skin.  * Click here to take the Toxin Quiz and see if you have an ama/toxin accumulation. * CELEBRATING 8 YEARS OF PODCASTING!!!

Mid-Summer Slump, I don't think so! It's summer, it's hot, and your body is speaking—maybe through irritation, inflammation, restlessness, or fatigue. Let's talk about the common urge to cool down by numbing out: wine on the patio, nightly ice cream, endless scrolling. But what if cooling down could actually reconnect you to your body, not disconnect you? In today's episode, I'm talking about how to truly cool down during Pitta season in a way that nourishes your feminine body and doesn't lead to burnout, depletion, or disconnection.

I am joined by Ayurvedic practitioner Anuradha Gupta in this episode to look at how Ayurveda can support emotional regulation, and learning of neurodivergent children and their caregivers.   We talk about:   What doshas and gunas really are, and how they shape your child's emotions, attention, and learning The Ayurvedic principle of chatushpad and why a child's progress is inseparable from a parent's wellbeing Strategies for Vata, Pitta, and Kapha imbalances in autistic and non-speaking children How to regulate when breathwork isn't possible, and why co-regulation matters more than ever Why honoring your child's natural tendencies isn't permissive parenting—it's transformational   Learn Sudarshan Kriya (SKY Breath Meditation): https://www.artofliving.org/us-en/sky

In this solo episode of Fusionary Health, renowned Ayurvedic expert Dr. Shivani Gupta explores one of her greatest passions: the healing power of super spices. A PhD researcher in turmeric and founder of Fusionary Formulas, Dr. Gupta shares how these ancient botanicals—like turmeric, ginger, cumin, ashwagandha, brahmi, and more—can transform your energy, brain, gut, metabolism, and stress response.She dives deep into the science and tradition behind Ayurvedic staples, explains how she uses them in her own life and supplement line, and reveals why “feeling older” isn't aging—it's inflammation. From her masala dabba spice box to clinical studies and lifestyle rituals, she offers you a roadmap to vibrant health, rooted in ancient wisdom and backed by modern research.

Summer, with all its brightness and intensity, is a time when Pitta can easily go out of balance, even for those who don't have a Pitta constitution. And when we don't know the signs of imbalance or we ignore them, it can lead to everything from digestive issues and skin flare-ups to burnout, irritability and emotional overload. In this solo episode, Colette shares some of the most supportive Ayurvedic insights and tools to help you manage Pitta during the summer months. Whether you're naturally fiery or just feeling the heat of the season, you'll come away with practical ways to stay cool, calm, and balanced all summer long. Colette discusses the following: Understanding the Pitta dosha. Why Summer aggravates the Pitta dosha. The importance of seasonal awareness. Dietary guidelines for Pitta in Summer. Lifestyle and daily routine adjustments. Adjusting your exercise during the hot weather. * Thanks to Kerala Ayurveda Academy for sponsoring this episode. Use the code ELEMENTS100 for $100 off your tuition.

Send us a textCaffeine is something that is integrated into most people's lives, but do you ever take a step back to really look at your relationship with caffeine? In this episode I discuss the effects of caffeine on the body and mind from both personal and Ayurvedic perspectives, comparing caffeine consumption to using an energy credit card. I explain how different Ayurvedic constitutions (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) react to caffeine, and I share my personal journey with and eventual break-up from caffeine. I explore the scientific and Ayurvedic views on caffeine's impact on the nervous system and emphasize the importance of self-awareness and moderation. I encourage listeners to track their caffeine consumption and its effects to better understand their relationship with the stimulant.

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.

Picture this, Habit Thrivers:It's Saturday morning, spring is in the air, and the spring cleaning bug has bitten.With a look of determination and a handful of trash bags, you open the spare bedroom/garage/closet, put your hands on your hips, and say:Look at all of this crap...You've been there, right?I sure have.Today, on Episode #151 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we are discussing how to use an Ayurvedic perspective to eliminate decluttering shame and really embrace who we really are.No matter if you are a Vata, Pitta or Kapha woman, we all have our strengths and weaknesses - and it's no different when it comes to dealing with the clutter in our lives.The Vata woman feels overwhelmed by clutter. She starts in one place, gets distracted by another project or a memory, and ends up with a handful of unfinished piles.The Pitta woman hates clutter. She's irritated by it (and anyone who gets in her spring-cleaning way). She is so focused and determined on decluttering that she dismisses and misses out on other opportunities while she dives into her decluttering mission.The Kapha woman feels an emotional pull to her clutter. She has a hard time letting things go, because her emotions are tied to those objects. She may take one look at the messy drawer or closet and be instantly stuck.But, while understanding our Dosha helps us understand what keeps us stuck on clutter, it can also help us move past our limitations, embrace who we are and make new progress.So join me today, and find out what decluttering approaches speak directly to the woman you already are.Love,Lorrie xoxoxMentioned in this episode:Take the Banyan Botanicals Dosha QuizLoving the show?

Wellness expert and author Heather Grzych explores what it really means to address the root cause of illness – beyond symptoms and surface-level fixes. She shares two compelling case studies: a nurse with a Pitta imbalance and thyroid issues from shift work, and a high-performing executive who thought he had a gluten intolerance, but actually had weakened digestion from overusing supplement drinks. Heather discusses how healing often requires simple-but-not easy changes, and what to do when the source of imbalance isn't something you can just walk away from. Heather Grzych, ADLC is an American author and expert in Ayurvedic medicine who was formerly the head of product development for a multi-billion-dollar health insurance company. She currently serves as the president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association and is part of the faculty at Mount Madonna Institute College of Ayurveda.

"Sometimes life directs you somewhere you didn't plan on going, and you realize everything happens for a reason." - Dr. Trupti Gokani I was absolutely fascinated by my conversation with Dr. Trupti Gokani, an award-winning neurologist who has brilliantly bridged Western medicine with ancient Ayurvedic wisdom. Her journey began during her first year of medical school when debilitating insomnia led her to discover Ayurveda after conventional medicine failed her. What's remarkable is how she's developed a three-brain optimization approach (head, gut, and microbiome) that addresses the root causes of chronic conditions instead of just managing symptoms. We explored the three Ayurvedic body types—Vata (air/space), Pitta (fire/water), and Kapha (earth/water)—and how understanding your unique constitution can transform your approach to diet, stress, and health challenges. This conversation offers powerful insights for women feeling disconnected from their bodies or struggling with stress-related conditions like migraines, digestive issues, or autoimmune disorders.   What you'll learn: How Dr. Gokani discovered Ayurvedic medicine after conventional approaches failed to help her insomnia The three Ayurvedic body types (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and how to identify yours Why understanding your constitution is foundational to personalized health How chronic stress manifests differently based on your body type The connection between gut health, emotions, and neurological symptoms Simple Ayurvedic techniques that can complement modern medical treatments How choosing the right foods for your type can significantly improve symptoms Love the Podcast?

Tiago Pitta e Cunha é o convidado de Conversas com CEO.O presidente executivo da Fundação Oceano Azul reconhece que, nos últimos três anos, se realizaram mais progressos do que nas últimas três décadas em Portugal. Foram criadas três áreas marinhas protegidas e caminha-se para uma quarta, na maior montanha da Europa, submersa a sul do Algarve, o que permitirá a Portugal cumprir o objetivo de ter 30% da sua área marítima protegida até 2030. Tiago Pitta e Cunha fala dos caminhos para manter a política de sustentabilidade numa altura em que os Estados Unidos a rejeitam e outros países começam a seguir o mesmo caminho. Um exemplo é o acordo para não explorar os minerais do fundo do mar, que já conta com o apoio de 32 países, entre os quais Portugal. Está convencido de que “se estivermos cá no século XXII, é porque o século XXI foi o século da descarbonização”.

Ayurveda identifies Acid reflux disease as Amlapitta. It is a disease of the Annavaha Srotas (gastrointestinal system) that has been documented in numerous Ayurvedic scriptures. It is one of the most common diseases in today's society and is caused due to the Excessive intake of spicy, sour, pungent, oily, and junk food items. Therefore, a balance between Vata, Pitta, and Kapha Doshas is essential to keep the Gut free from any kind of disharmony in digesting the food.

On today's solo episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm sharing one of my greatest passions Ayurveda, and how this ancient healing system can deeply support your fertility journey. Ayurveda, which translates to “the study of life,” is a holistic approach that brings harmony to the body, mind, and spirit. In this episode, I'll walk you through the three doshas Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, and how understanding your unique body type can empower you to make daily choices that support reproductive health and overall well-being. You'll learn how to identify your dominant dosha, how to nourish and balance it with specific foods, yoga practices, and self-care rituals, and why Ayurveda is such a powerful and intuitive tool for restoring balance. Whether you're new to Ayurveda or looking to integrate it more fully into your life, this episode is filled with practical guidance to help you feel more connected, grounded, and supported on your path to fertility. Key Takeaways:  Ayurveda is a holistic science that balances the body, mind, and spirit to promote fertility and overall health. There are three primary doshas Vata (air & ether), Pitta (fire & water), and Kapha (earth & water) each with unique physical, emotional, and energetic characteristics. Understanding your dosha helps you make personalized lifestyle and nutrition choices that support hormonal balance and reproductive health. Vata types benefit from warmth, grounding, and healthy fats; Pitta types thrive on cooling, anti-inflammatory foods; and Kapha types need stimulation, lighter foods, and movement. Daily practices like dry brushing, self-massage, and tailored yoga routines can deeply support nervous system regulation and fertility. Ayurveda provides intuitive and practical tools you can apply daily to feel more balanced, energised, and connected to your body. ✨ Take the Dosha Quiz here to discover your Ayurvedic body type!

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.

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

  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.

Namaste from Boulder, Colorado! Today Erin and Sasha continue the exploration of the chakras with Manipura - the third of the seven chakras - which translates  as “the shining sacred jewel.” It is associated with the Fire element, the planet Mars, the color Yellow, and the “Ishta Devata” Hanuman. It is located just above the navel and below the sternum, at our solar plexus — also called the celiac plexus — which is a complex system of radiating nerves and ganglia. It is found in the pit of the stomach in front of the aorta. It is part of the sympathetic nervous system and plays an important role in the functioning of the stomach, kidneys, liver, and adrenal glands. This chakra brings Prana to the digestive system, also known as our second brain. From a Western perspective, this is known and expressed as the gut-brain axis (or GBA) - the network of nerves and biochemical signals that connect the brain and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It's a two-way communication system that helps maintain homeostasis. The vagus nerve is one of the main nerves that connects the brain and gut, sending signals in both directions. From a clinical perspective, the GBA can impact disorders like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and memory loss. The GBA can also be linked to conditions like autism, obesity, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. The Manipura chakra is directly linked to our sense of self, self-esteem, sense of purpose, the seat of clear decisive action, vision, dynamic action, assertiveness, discipline, determination, passion, deepest willingness to go beyond, strong will power, courage, resilience, and vitality. When balanced, there is energy and insight, will power and and follow-through, self-reliance, vitality and health. It can only be as balanced as the first 2 chakras. When imbalanced, there is a state of self-doubt, fear, insecurity, wanting, anger, blame, victimhood, depression, and lethargy. Positive affirmations, yoga postures that engage the core such as bow pose, cobra pose, or revolved triangle pose, and kapalabhati pranayama (or breath of fire) help strengthen Manipura when it is weak. We also get into ways of balancing an overactive Manipura, as Pitta-type individuals are prone to over exercising, overworking, and burnout. We hope today's conversation illuminates the ways in which we can reclaim and maintain our personal power, and that it is not as much a process of creating it, as it is discovering that which has always been there and removing what blocks us from experiencing it. Send us a textSupport the showTo learn more about us, please visit www.OjasOasis.com Connect with us @ojasoasis on Instagram

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.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Jennifer: I am wondering what your thoughts are on the SPECT (Brain) Scans that Dr Daniel Amen recommends to clients with brain disorders or concerns, especially if there is a history of head injury?     Lara: Hi Stephen, Hope you can help. When i go to bed at night i am tired and ready to fall asleep, then when i almost fall asleep my legs start to itch very badly. I can go on for hours and it wakes me up everynight, sometimes it goes away for a while but always returnes after a few days or weeks.     Kelsi: hi dr. cabral! i have an ayurvedic-based question. i tend to have a pitta imbalance and recently it's been worse than usual. my body has been hot, especially at night, my tongue has a light yellow coating and i struggled with mild insulin resistance + acne (pcos). i'm currently on the CBO protocol and meditating like my life depends on it to calm the body down. my questions are 1) if i'm already running hot, have i been doing myself a disservice by doing the sauna every single day? and 2) is there anything else you'd recommend right off the bat to rebalance pitta?     Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am getting into preserving my own food and have been learning about the process. I got a canning book and it splits jam recipes into those with added pectin and those without it. It says that pectin is a fiber naturally found in fruits and vegetables, and that adding it to jams reduces cooking time and increases its ability to gel. Since it is naturally found in fruit I didn't think it would be bad to add, but after some research I am getting conflicted information. Please share your thoughts, you are a trusted voice in our household! Thank you!     Maria: Is treating an elevated/out of range TPOab part of the thyroid outside the scope of practice of an IHP?     Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3151 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
