As the seasons shift, your skin tells a story. Autumn's dry, cool winds can bring flakiness, sensitivity, or dullness, while lingering summer heat may still trigger redness or irritation. Ayurveda teaches us that these changes aren't random, they're reflections of dosha balance, digestion, and even our emotions. In this episode, we explore how to keep your skin radiant and resilient during autumn by understanding the connection between seasonal shifts, inner health, and emotional wellbeing. You'll learn how Vata and Pitta influence the skin at this time of year, why seasonal cleansing is key for preventing imbalance, and simple Ayurvedic rituals that nourish both inside and out. You'll discover: Why autumn is a sensitive time for the skin Dosha-specific tendencies and skin challenges in Vata, Pitta, and Kapha types The role of digestion and seasonal cleansing in radiant skin Emotional imbalances that can show up on the skin Ayurvedic rituals: oil cleansing, abhyanga, hydrating masks, diet, and grounding routines Your skin is more than surface deep, it's a reflection of your inner balance. Join me in this episode to discover how Ayurvedic wisdom can help you move into autumn with vitality, resilience, and a healthy glow.

Dr. Sati and Praj unpack the “spirituality of money,” linking Vedic elements, doshas (Vata/Pitta/Kapha), and the three gunas to how we earn, spend, and stress—especially in today's shiny-object, Vata-leaning economy. They break down the Three F's of money (fight/flight/freeze), map money behaviors by constitution (Vata's earn-spend cycles, Pitta's purposeful investing, Kapha's hoarding), and offer practical swaps—redirect daily coffee runs, eating out, fast fashion, and even certain healthcare habits toward training, coaching, and long-term wellness ROI. 00:00 Welcome to the Woman Warrior Podcast03:58 Trainer Eyes and Circle Announcements08:01 Seasonal Changes and Wellness Check-In29:37 The Spirituality of Money40:09 Understanding Pitta and Money Flow42:36 Vata Traits and Financial Behavior43:18 Kapha's Financial Stability47:46 The Spiritual Perspective on Money51:33 Investing in Health and Fitness01:02:30 The Cost of Entertainment and Technology01:06:49 Healthcare and Spirituality of Money01:17:04 Final Thoughts and Truth BombBe sure to Like and Subscribe for more!

Have you ever noticed cravings sneak up when you're stressed, tired, or at the change of a season? Ayurveda teaches us that cravings aren't about willpower, they're messages from the body, pointing to imbalance. Whether it's toxins (ama), weak digestion (Agni), or long-held emotional patterns, cravings are signposts that something deeper is asking for attention. In this episode, Colette explores: The Ayurvedic view of cravings through the six tastes (rasa) How doshic imbalances (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) shape what we crave The difference between true nourishment and false cravings Why ultra-processed foods disrupt our natural signals How an Ayurvedic cleanse rekindles Agni and resets your palate The emotional side of cravings - samskaras, habits, and food as comfort Practical tips to integrate into everyday life with mindful eating, seasonal foods, and gratitude ✨ Special Invitation ✨ If you'd like to experience this reset for yourself, join my upcoming Group Digestive Reset Cleanse starting October 3rd. Together, we'll clear ama, strengthen digestion, and reset cravings in a supportive, guided container. Early Bird Special: Book before September 5th and save an additional 10% with code CLEANSE10.

Você sabia que o uso exagerado de telas pode desequilibrar corpo e mente? Segundo o Ayurveda, esse hábito agrava nossos doshas: ⚡ Vata → ansiedade, insônia, secura.

In this episode of A Gut Story, host Dimple Jangda speaks with Kunal Jai Singh about the ancient wisdom and modern relevance of Ayurveda. The conversation traces Ayurveda's mythological origins, its foundation on the five elements and three doshas - Kapha, Pitta, and Vata and its holistic approach to preventive health. They discuss the central role of digestion and gut health, the detoxifying practice of Panchakarma, and the dangers of wrong food combinations that lead to disease. The dialogue also emphasizes using the five senses while eating, the power of circadian rhythm, pranayama, chanting, and journaling for mental health. Practical tips for hair, skin, heart, lungs, and colon care are shared, while a deeper spiritual message encourages listeners to live with purpose, compassion, and balance.

 Today we dive deeper into the layers of the mind and personality with Ayurvedic Psychology 102: The 3 Doshas and the 3 Gunas. At the heart of Ayurveda lies a timeless template. One that explains not just your body and mind, but consciousness itself through the lens of the five elements and their expressions as the Doshas and Gunas.This isn't just about understanding your stress responses or emotional habits, though that's part of it. It's about learning to see the world through the lens of nature's intelligence. We'll begin with the 3 Doshas: Vata, the principle of movement and change; creative, spontaneous, but prone to anxiety and fragmentation.Pitta, the force of transformation focused, passionate, and discerning yet can burn out or become irritable. Kapa, the energy of structure and cohesion, loving, loyal and calm, but sometimes resistant to change. And then we'll move into the 3 Gunas, the subtle forces of the mind: Sattva brings clarity, peace, and harmony.Rajas brings action, ambition, and restlessness. Tamma brings stillness, but also inertia, confusion or ignorance. These 6 forces, the three Doshas and the three Gunas form a living map of consciousness. They help us understand why we feel, what we feel, do what we do, and how to come back into alignment with our higher self.When you begin to see yourself and others through this elemental lens, life starts to make more sense. You stop personalizing everything and start realizing and relating to your experience with compassion, insight, and greater freedom. Send us a textFor 20% off Kerala Ayurveda products, use code OjasOasis at checkoutFor 20% off GarryNSun products, use code OJASOASIS20 at checkout Book a 1:1 with Sasha at https://www.ojasoasis.com/book For 50% off your initial intake consultation, mention you're a subscriber of the podcast.

In this insightful episode of Gut Story, Dr. Vignesh Devraj explains how modern diseases like diabetes, fatty liver, and hormonal imbalances are rooted in overconsumption, not malnourishment. Ayurveda classifies diseases into two types — those from deficiency (Apatharpana) and those from excess (Santharpana). With the world now facing abundance-related illnesses, Panchakarma becomes a vital therapy for detoxification.Dr. Vignesh breaks down the five Panchakarma therapies:Nasya – Nasal detox for sinus and mucus-related issues.Vamana – Therapeutic vomiting for Kapha imbalance and respiratory problems.Virechana – Purgation to cleanse the intestines and reduce Pitta-related disorders.Basti – Medicated enemas to nourish and cleanse the colon, ideal for Vata imbalances.Raktamokshana – Bloodletting for detoxing inflammatory markers and skin issues.He warns against DIY detox trends like unsupervised enemas, which can harm gut health and increase Vata imbalance. Panchakarma, when done correctly under supervision, can improve conditions such as PCOS, arthritis, IBS, migraines, asthma, and even fertility issues.The discussion emphasizes that health is a lifestyle, not a one-time treatment. Panchakarma acts as a reset button—helping individuals reconnect with their bodies, improve discipline, and build long-term well-being. Mental health, food habits, and physical activity all play critical roles in maintaining balance.

Send us a textThis week is a flashback episode!  This is an episode I put out almost two years ago about the basics of Pitta Dosha.  I'll be back next week with a new episode!Original shownotes:Ever feel hangry?  That's Pitta.  Acne and spreading rashes?  That's Pitta.  Feel irritable and angry in hot weather?  Also Pitta.  Pitta Dosha is a combination of the Fire and Water elements.  Fire is transformational,  it literally changes things.  A tree into ash, water into steam.  When we are going through a challenging or life changing experience,  we sometimes say we are “stepping into the fire”.   Without this fire, things would always stay the same and remain stuck.   If we didn't have Pitta Dosha in our bodies, we wouldn't be able to transform our food into usable components or transform our sensory impressions into thoughts, emotions or sensations. In this episode:What is Pitta DoshaWhat does Pitta look like in the macrocosm of the world and the microcosm of our bodiesWhat does healthy and unhealthy Pitta look likePitta times of day, time of year and time of lifeQualities of the Pitta predominant personHow to balance PittaSources:Lad, V., M.A.Sc (2002).

Alex Greene speaks with Bonnie Pariser, a TRE provider and yoga therapist who runs Yoga Loca studio in Frenchtown, New Jersey. Bonnie shares how she transformed her yoga therapy practice by integrating TRE (Tension & Trauma Release Exercises) with traditional yoga approaches. Her unique journey from fashion design to embodiment work led her to discover that tremoring can dramatically improve outcomes for clients with chronic tension, anxiety, and trauma.Bonnie explains how tremoring prepares the nervous system for yoga practices, especially for clients who are too activated to benefit from conventional stretching or meditation. She uses the Ayurvedic dosha framework to understand different nervous system states: vata (anxiety/bracing), pitta (hypervigilance), and kapha (shutdown). This approach works with the body's natural healing mechanisms rather than against them.The conversation covers practical applications including emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and spiritual practice preparation. Bonnie shares examples from her classes and one-on-one sessions, showing how clients move from seeking physical relief to developing life management skills. Her integration of ancient wisdom with modern trauma approaches demonstrates how nervous system regulation can transform both therapy outcomes and daily life.Listen to the full episode to discover how this powerful combination of TRE and yoga can transform your approach to nervous system regulation and embodiment practices.Key Highlights:0:00 Introduction 1:49 Fashion to Embodiment 4:19 TRE Training Discovery 6:06 Yoga Sutras Connection 7:06 Kumbhaka Breathless State 12:09 Integration with Classes 17:05 Emotional Regulation Practice 18:44 Conflict Resolution Applications 26:51 Ayurvedic Dosha Perspective 27:20 Vata Derangement Treatment 30:53 One-on-One Applications 35:52 Personal Practice Evolution 37:17 Tandava Dance Connection 41:08 Kriya Spontaneous Movements 50:58 Myofascial Release Integration 52:50 Future Learning DirectionsLinks and Resources: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YogaLokaNJ/ Websites: https://www.yoga-loka.com/     http://www.yoga-therapy-can-help.me/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yoga_loka/ David Berceli - TRE founder and trainer: https://treglobal.org/about-dr-david-berceli/ Mukunda Stiles - Structural Yoga Therapy: http://www.innerquestyoga.com/aboutmukunda.html Patanjali's Yoga Sutras: https://iep.utm.edu/yoga/ Swami Muktananda - Kriya yoga teacher: https://www.siddhayoga.org/baba-muktananda/ John F.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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. 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.
