🎯 Feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and confused by conflicting health advice?
This conversation will bring you back to something most people have forgotten: your body already knows.
In this episode of the Live Love Learn podcast, Catherine Edwards is joined by Ayurvedic practitioner and author Nidhi Bhanshali Pandya to explore Ayurveda as it was meant to be: not as a rigid set of rules, but as a way of life that restores clarity, energy, digestion, hormones, and nervous system balance in the modern world. We all need health advice that is easy to implement, not things that cause more stress!
We cover:
🎯 Why Ayurveda is the “science of life” — and why modern humans forgot what every other species remembers
🎯 The 3 core principles that simplify health (without dogma or overwhelm)
🎯 Circadian rhythm wisdom (why timing matters for food, focus, and sleep)
🎯 “Inner climate” — why warm + moist is the sweet spot for microbiome, digestion, and resilience
🎯 Why modern trends (and fear-based health content) make people lose self-trust
🎯 Simple winter practices that actually work (including self-oiling / abhyanga and warming foods)
🎯 How healing becomes easier when you stop outsourcing your health
If you’re burnt out, stressed, or tired of “quick fix” trends… this will give you a compass.
