Discover how Ayurvedic wisdom, mindful eating, and practical lifestyle strategies can break the binge cycle, restore balance, and replace guilt with compassion. Learn why our hunter-gatherer instincts still influence our food choices, the role of nutrient deficiencies, and how to create an environment where willpower isn’t constantly tested.

BALANCE THE MIGHTY VATA - ONLINE COURSE NOW AVAILABLE

What makes Ayurveda unique in its treatment approach is its practical wisdom on the concept of Vata. 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.
