Have you ever noticed cravings sneak up when you're stressed, tired, or at the change of a season? Ayurveda teaches us that cravings aren't about willpower, they're messages from the body, pointing to imbalance. Whether it's toxins (ama), weak digestion (Agni), or long-held emotional patterns, cravings are signposts that something deeper is asking for attention.

In this episode, Colette explores:

  • The Ayurvedic view of cravings through the six tastes (rasa)
  • How doshic imbalances (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) shape what we crave
  • The difference between true nourishment and false cravings
  • Why ultra-processed foods disrupt our natural signals
  • How an Ayurvedic cleanse rekindles Agni and resets your palate
  • The emotional side of cravings - samskaras, habits, and food as comfort
  • Practical tips to integrate into everyday life with mindful eating, seasonal foods, and gratitude
