Dosha Karma Dharma Podcast with Akshata

Do you know how long we as humans have had this long relationship with wheat - when I did some research - our relationship with wheat began more than 10000 years back - think about this - it almost goes back to as old as Ayurveda. According to the recent article by Allied Market Research the gluten free snack industry was estimated at $843.6 million in 2021, and is set to reach $1.8 billion by 2031 globally. Why is our loyalty towards wheat shifting - why are we in such a hurry to ditch this relationship that stood the time for thousands of years and made us who we are today? Why, what might be the reason? More importantly what does the scientific wisdom of Ayurveda tell us about wheat and gluten free grains? The topics covered in this episode - 1) When to eat and when not to eat gluten free grains 2) What season is more beneficial to incorporate gluten free diet 3) How to access each dosha to the gluten free properties and make an informed decision when and when not to be gluten free 4) Which dosha suffers the most when one goes gluten free and why 5) What is Wheat from the lens of Ayurveda and also briefly touch on the history and traditions of wheat in the Indian culture Website - https://www.jeevalifestyle.com/ Email - JeevaLifestyle@gmail.com

Why do we eat food? What is the most common answer - to keep us ALIVE, we eat food to sustain us, to keep our body and mind healthy.

Everything sounds perfect in a smoothie - FAST,SIMPLE,DELICIOUS, and EFFECTIVE - but one big thing is missing in this equation- listen to the podcast to know and understand the MISSING PIECE of the equations that aids in optimal digestion which in turn aids in optimal nutrition absorption per Ayurveda.

On the auspicious day of Hanuman Jayanthi (May 16th) I thought it would be appropriate to talk about the monkey mind which is a vata imbalanced mind per Ayurveda. Recently I came across a very interesting research done by the US Library of Medicine on brain research done on vata brain, pitta brain, and kapha brain. I am sharing the result of this interesting article in this episode and how it accurately ties with Ayurveda which was told more than 10000 years back. In this episode you will learn practical tips on balancing the monkey mind of vata - 1) How the age-old ghee called Purana Ghritha in Ayurveda helps with various mental issues? 2) How Ojas (the refined by-product of Kapha dosha) helps to bring security and stability to the vata mind? 3) What are tangible signs that give us clues that Ojas is not sufficient in life? 4) How reciting of vedic mantras and meditation help to calm and center the monkey mind? 5) I recite one paragraph of Hanuman Chalisa for you to get inspired to recite this mantra to pacify vata mind Jai Hanuman!
