Monthly conversations with vaidyas I really admire, asking the questions that never came up in class. If you’re curious about how Ayurveda, tune in and learn along with me.

I’m a holistic wellness counselor and I believe food is medicine — so I wrote a couple of cookbooks:

The Essential Ayurvedic Cookbook - An introduction to Ayurveda and 200 recipes with variations for gluten free, dairy free, and carnivores.

New episode: Ayurveda & Jyotish: How Your Birth Chart Reveals Your Health & Life Purpose
This one was really fun and interesting.
I’ve always been fascinated by astrology. When I first discovered Jyotish/Vedic/sidreal Astrology on a trip to India in 2002, I was surprised at how different it was from Western/tropical astrology. It’s deeper, spiritual, and frames obstacles as ways to keep you aligned with your dharma.
Jyotish is closely linked to Ayurveda, helping you understand your prakruti, health tendencies, and how the planets connect to the doshas (Saturn as vata, Mars as pitta, etc.).
Josh reads the chart as a blueprint for fulfilling your life’s purpose and is one of the few Westerners who bridges cultural context. At the end of the episode, Josh reviews David Bowie’s health chart which foretells the potential for and timing of his health issues.
Listen on Fountain or watch on YouTube.

I bought some liver from a local farm a few years ago and wasn't excited about the flavor or texture....I tried a couple different recipes and recall that pre-soaking in milk was helpful...
But I always had to smother in caramelized onions bc I didn't like the underlying taste

Sorry you're dealing with this.
Warm water saline rinse of the nostrils will flush out the pollen so the cilia in your nose can continue to filter at peak capacity.
It's like changing your HVAC air filter.
If some pollen has entered your lungs and causing irritation there, a little ginger root and licorice root tea will soothe the membranes there...
Inhaling Eucalyptus steam can also help clear the sinuses...
Hope you're feeling better soon 🙏🙏🙏

Hope you are feeling better.
Streaming a warm water saline rinse (yogis use a "neti pot", but you can use any small spouted cup) through each nostril will help clear congestion... CK out this article if you're not familiar
Inhaling Eucalyptus steam is also beneficial.
Ginger-lemongrass tea is also useful to open/flush the lymphatic channels.
Pressing Marma points along each side of the nose can also help open channels and move stagnation (see attached photo...if any of those points feel tender, gently press for 1 minute each)
Hope this helps 🙏

Ideally, neither pit should smell.
Does your tongue have a coating? ( I. E. It's not pink?)
Then you have some ama.
Drinking a tea of
seeds of cumin, coriander, fennel, and cardamom plus fresh ginger root will clear the smell and your tongue.

Thanks Ava. This is helpful for future reference 😁
The phone has been located -- it fell out of my pocket during the car ride home (a couple at the train station offered me a ride bc the taxi phone number wasn't working and the Uber app download with Aurora wouldn't open).
They were local, seemed very nice and we exchanged business cards (he works in IT).
He sent me an email saying he had my phone and asked me to connect and retrieve it. I replied via email and voicemail yesterday.
Waiting to hear back 🤞
The phone is used for providing numbers to website and OTP.
I had it with me for travelling to access accounts.
I think the only app on the phone is Amethyst... I'm assuming I can't log out of that remotely.

Funny how people say NOSTR is difficult to set up. Try setting up an author account on Kindle, Google and Apple
1. Set up account and wait for verification
2. Set up bank info and wait for verification
3. Set up tax info
4. Verify book
Kindle took me a week as I already had an author account with them from prior book I published (step 1)
Google rejected my book saying they didn't think it was mine (but they verified my identity in steps 1-3)...🤔
Apple is a nightmare without already being in the apple ecosystem/using apple hardware. They requires 2FA every time I log in ( I'm out of the country so had to buy an international calling plan to get into my account) .... have to use Firefox for their web pages to display properly (they don't tell you this, but the display was not correct on brave, vandium and chrome).
The current system, for all its tracking, is terrible for identity verification.

Episode 4 - The healing power of marma points.
I was so excited to speak with Dr. Anisha. I've had her marma textbook for years and the pages are well worn from frequent use.
I was hoping to get her to discuss the esoteric meanings of certain points (like the middle of the ear lobe where we pierce our ears is associated with the pineal gland, which some sages say is associated with opening the third eye), but she kept shifting back to grounded everyday use cases. 😂
Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Hi Rae,
Welcome to NOSTR.
Quick heads up, if you joined Nostr through Primal, it automatically followed a handful of Bitcoin accounts for you. That could explain why your feed looks the way it does.
Nostr doesn’t have an algorithm, so your feed only reflects who you follow. Simply unfollow the default ones and start following people who talk about your interests, and you’ll see a big shift.
I’m a wellness coach, author of The Essential Ayurvedic Cookbook, and host of the Essential Ayurveda Talks podcast. You might enjoy last month’s episode on spirituality and the menstrual cycle.
I’ve also got upcoming episodes on maternity and postpartum care, marma therapy, and Panchakarma.
I use this account mainly for my podcast, so my feed is a little sparse right now — I’m busy writing a holiday e-book. My other account @nprofile…3mpw has a bit more posting if you’d like to follow there as well.
Also, you may want to check out @nprofile…099z . He has curated a few lists of spiritually-focused accounts.
🙏 ✨

Also, what does it say about the Doctors who complied without questions 🤔

Ideally...it's ongoing spiritual work... But yes... This period of time, emotions will be released as fast as the mind can process them. That's my understanding.

🎙️ New Podcast Episode Is Live!
Apologies in advance for the sound quality,
but the conversation is gold.
I sat down with Dr. Ashwin Kumar, a fourth-generation Ayurvedic doctor and Vedic teacher, for a rich, wide-ranging conversation on health, healing, and ancient wisdom.
We covered:
🌿 The traditional gurukulam approach to Ayurvedic learning
🧘‍♂️ Yoga as medicine for mental and emotional health
🩺 How the menstrual cycle reflects long-term vitality, fertility & menopause
🥗 Ayurvedic diet tips for supporting a healthy cycle
💞 Spiritual partnership and conscious marriage
👥 Plus: male infertility, emotional resilience & the role of community in healing
This one's layered—spiritual, emotional, physical—and rooted in Ayurveda's holistic view of life.
🎧 Listen: yogawithlois.com/podcast/understanding-fertility-through-ayurveda/
▶️ Watch: youtu.be/tMmkWXXimZE
Thanks for tuning in as this show grows—one honest (and imperfect) convo at a time.

Yes... It's cool... When the active cleansing phase is done... Now it's 4 weeks of "processing"

Yes.
The toxins that are being uprooted can be physical and emotional...
Think of when you have a gut feeling in your stomach that you ignore ... That leaves a residue... It's undigested... Anything we don't digest become ama/toxins. And sticks to the cells, tissues, channels ...that creates blockage....and makes it difficult for optimal functioning.... Toxins slowly builds up. PK is like "spring cleaning" your house (if people still do that anymore 😂).
So yes .. one is processing a lot during this time...
And the idea is to go inward and reflect on that.... For me it's always "What is my purpose in life?"
Also, I found myself praying to Lord Indra for guidance during this....had some physical injuries that needed to be addressed. It was good ...🙏🙏

It's called panchakarma... 5 therapies....
1. Snehana - internal and external oleation... Drinking ghee and getting abhyangha massages..... The oil loosens the toxins that are sticking to your tissues and channels. The abhyangha pushes the toxins into the GI tract for elimination....
2. Vamana - vomiting ...
Removes excess kapha (I didn't do this 😆)
3. Virechana - castor oil purgation.
4. Basti - series of herbal enemas...some for cleaning...some for rejuvenating...all of them are helping to pull out the toxins that are now ready for removal.
5. Rakts moksha - blood letting.(I didn't do this one either)...this can be approximated by donating blood.
Ideally you want a really light diet...the goal isn't nutrition...just get enough energy to get through the day and let the body naturally detox.
This cleansing phase can be 7-21 or more days. Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Your doctor will customize the herbs, the oils and the procedures. It's very cool.
I did 14 days...
After this, then you do the rejuvenating stage...replenishing all the nicely cleaned tissues and channels...they will more readily assimilate the herbs bc they're clean...so you don't have to use as much....
I'm doing a podcast on this in December. I haven't studied PK in depth...but I have done it multiple times.

I use this npub mostly for my podcast... And tend to post food pics on my other one. I'm doing an Ayurveda cleanse and have been posting the food pics on that npub.... But generally have been so busy I am not posting a ton.
