What if I told you that obesity isn’t about laziness, lack of willpower, or poor choices? In this deeply compassionate episode, we explore the multi-dimensional truth behind weight gain — from hormonal imbalances and cortisol spikes to emotional trauma and Ayurvedic Prakriti.
We dive into:
✨ The biology of obesity: insulin, leptin, ghrelin, and thyroid function
✨ Ancient Ayurvedic wisdom on Sthaulya, Mandagni, and Ama
✨ How stress, bullying, and shame create emotional eating patterns
✨ Why some bodies are naturally bigger (Kapha Prakriti)
✨ Bhagavad Gita’s teaching on balance over punishment
✨ Anti-inflammatory eating, sleep, joyful movement, and yoga’s healing power
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt judged, misunderstood, or blamed for their body. Your worth is not measured in kilograms. Healing begins with compassion — not criticism.
🎧 Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll explore Ayurvedic herbs, yogic psychology, emotional journaling, and a realistic daily healing flow.
