Following an ‘Ayurvedic’ lifestyle largely means being in sync with nature, eating as per your body type and spending time doing things you love. But thanks to modern-day lifestyles, many of us struggle with keeping up with our body clocks, unable to follow the circadian rhythm and end up consuming food and things that may not really be nutritious for our body.

In this episode, host Shweta speaks with Dr. Vaishali Shukla, an Ayurveda doctor and founder of Vedamrit and Naina Bajaria, a holistic health consultant, yoga practitioner and founder of The Ayurvedic Pharmacy on what Ayurveda says about the prevention and treatment of the present-day lifestyle disorders.

Period cramps. If there was a two-word horror story - for some of our fellow menstruators - this would be it. How often have we changed our long-thought plans just because our period was nearing? And how many times do we worry about popping pills when our body is in pain. We get you. Period cramps can be excruciatingly hard. But here’s the thing - they don’t have to be!

In this episode, host Shweta speaks with Dr. Dixa Bhavsar Savaliya, an Ayurveda doctor and co-founder of The Kadamba Tree. Society feeds us with the notion that periods are or rather have to be painful but Dr. Dixa takes the traditional path and sheds light upon the different Ayurvedic ways to manage period health leading to easier and more manageable periods.

We often blame the monsoons for the terrifying hair fall we experience once a year. But have you wondered why some of us need that extra love and care when it comes to our hair? In this episode, host Shweta speaks to Dr. Aishwarya Ghotane, an Ayurveda doctor and in-house expert at Amrutam.Global about the distressing problem of excessive hair fall.

During the lockdown when people found themselves going back to the traditional Indian school of Ayurveda, there came a wave of false WhatsApp forwards and exaggerated facts. Dr. Aishwarya took it upon herself to educate people about the depths of Ayurveda and that’s when her holistic living account Twakk Ayurveda was born.

Ever wondered why is it that our body and mind are best in sync when they are following a routine? That’s because they have to put the minimum amount of work into figuring out their next course of action. But how often are we able to create or rather stick to a routine and consistently so?

Have you ever found your hand making its way to the nearest snack at odd hours? It may be hard to admit, but a lot of us have a complicated relationship with food. Diana Damian is a certified peristream hydrotherapist and Ayurveda coach who once struggled with her relationship with food.

“My observation is that people take it too far and get obsessed with their practice and supplements, especially in the West. And as a result, no one is looking at the real cause. Ayurveda is a serious practice; herbs are real medicine. They should be taken seriously as their abuse or misuse can severely harm you. Always consult a professional before taking any supplements,” explains Diana. In this episode, host Shweta speaks with Diana Damian, about why we can’t stop binge eating. Tune in to learn what Ayurveda has to say about food and the human body!

With the evolution of human civilization, the idea of beauty has also evolved and changed over the years. We’ve become accustomed to viewing each other through camera lenses and social media filters which create a facade of sorts and hide the reality. And hence, we struggle with feeling comfortable in our own skin. In this episode, host Shweta speaks with Dr. Shilpa Thengil, an Ayurvedic Doctor with a focus on women’s health and metabolic syndromes about why we don’t feel confident in our skin. Inclined to explore the areas of Prasuti Tantra, Agnee Roga, and Salya Tantra, Dr. Shilpa is also an in-house expert at Amrutam.Global - an alternative health platform for those seeking Ayurvedic treatments.

The last two years were a reminder that our health truly is our wealth. While we have all become more mindful in our lifestyles, some of us just fall prey to sickness and ailments a little too often. In this episode, host Shweta speaks to Sarah Kucera, an Ayurveda practitioner and chiropractor based out of Kansas City, USA in an attempt to discern what it is that makes some people more prone to falling sick. 

Along with running Sage Healing Arts, a center for Ayurveda, Chiropractic, Massage, and Holistic Care, Sarah is also the author of the book titled The Ayurvedic Self-Care Handbook.

In the first episode of the podcast, host Shweta speaks with Mr. Ashok Gupta, Founding Principal at Amrutam. Amrutam was established over 15 years ago as a family business and it was in 2017 when his children Stuti and Agnim decided to join the family business of making Ayurvedic recipes and took it online. The ancient texts and rituals have been a constant source of inspiration and motivation for Mr. Gupta. He firmly believes that if one were to look well enough, we could find solutions to all our problems in the texts left behind by our ancestors. He applies similar principles while creating and adjusting his Ayurvedic recipes. The recipe for every single product that Amrutam caters is his own personal blend and Mr. Gupta has spent many a day tweaking and fine-tuning them.
