We’ve all been told that summer is the time to slow down, take a break, and recharge.

But what if that’s not what nature—or your body—really needs? In this provocative episode, Seema Giri draws from Ayurveda, energy work, and cutting-edge research to reveal why winter—not summer—may be the true season for rest and renewal.

Discover how aligning your work, creativity, and rest with the actual seasons can transform your energy, focus, and purpose. You’ll learn practical strategies for syncing your life with nature, hear surprising research on seasonal productivity, and get inspired to break free from outdated routines.

Key Topics:

  • Why the “summer rest” tradition is out of sync with nature
  • What ancient wisdom and Ayurveda teach about seasonal alignment
  • How winter is nature’s true rest season—and why your body craves it
  • Surprising research on plant and animal productivity cycles
  • Practical ways to realign your work, rest, and creativity with the seasons
